question: i don't have satellite radio, but do they have sports talk available on there? the deal with me is that i want national MLB and NFL talk for the most part. i want news and info about all the teams, and can do without any of these local shows, most of them suck. if they had a radio equivalent of MLB network and NFL network on there, that would work for me. does anyone listen to any of those type stations on satellite?
I listen almost daily to the sports shows on Sirius (particularly when the local talk gets boring, or starts otherwise beating a dead horse). Sirius 210 is MLB HOME PLATE. Buck Martinez and Scott Graham host the morning show, and if you want a solid recap of every game from the previous night, it's a good listen. Rob Dibble on during the drive home. They take a ton of calls , and if you can live without all local stuff, it's worth it.
There is also an NHL channel (HOME ICE, 208), which as a hockey fan I love, because it's actually hockey people doing the shows (Scott Laughlin, Denis Potvin, Pierre McGuire, Phil Esposito, etc...), instead of nearly every local guy who's suddenly a hockey expert since the Hawks became relevant again.
The NFL channel is pretty good too, although I don't really listen much in the offseason, other than at draft time so I have no idea what a Tim Ryan, Jim Miller, Randy Cross or Peter King are talking about these days.
Plus you can get the radio broadcasts of every NFL, NHL, MLB, and NBA game, as well as tons of college sports (If you have the Sirius/Best of XM like I do). Kind of nice if you're on the road on the weekend.
IMO, it's well worth the 100 bucks or so I paid for the year. I don't have a factory system, so I have docks for my Sirius radio in each of my cars and in my house.
