Favorite Sports Talk Programming

Ok, For Sports fans with Sirius, you've probably discovered how good the Sportstalk has been. I'm a huge fan of the NFL Network. Just wanted to know what shows some of you have stumbled upon.

I can finally listen to Mike & Mike on ESPN here in Ann Arbor, Michigan which has never had them.

I like Adam Shine and John Riggins on the Afternoon Drive, The show in late morning with Shannon Sharpe's pretty funny too.

I can't wait for the Draft talk to start. The Barber Shop with Tiki and Ronde's pretty cool.

Draft coverage on NFL Radio is ungodly good. The coverage of the combines, camps, etc. Genious. You get it straight as it happens; I remember listening to players try out, here them talk to the mike and get their numbers, and then flip over to ESPN later to here the "brief rundown" but there was nothing like listening to the scouts talk about how combines went

I like Dan Patrick's ESPN radio friday shows especially during football season.

Right with you Tim. I'm a big Dan Patrick fan. Especially the 2PM (EST) hour where he is joined by Keith Olbermann.

Awesome. I usually go to a sports bar for the draft. I might have to stay home and stay huddled to the radio. I don't have cable.

What do you guys think about their other sports coverage? I've only listened to Kenny Smith once or twice for NBA talk. Anyone hear the Phil Jackson show yet?

I LOVE the Adam Schein and John Riggins show!

Those guys just have so much love and passion for the sport!

Schein has the best NFL Talk voice. Like a meat grinder.

So Blu, Since this is my first full year of Sirius, does he do any of the draft coverage on draf weekend?

I loved Shein and Riggins till I found out Adam is only 28 years old and spends his days talking about the NFL !!! Nahhh I am not toooo jealous... I now hate that s.o.b.

My favorite sports shows:

#1 - Sharpe and T-Rock (Movin the Chains)
#2 - T-Rock and Kerwin (Red Zone or Movin the Chains)
#3 - Shein and Riggo
#4 - The Adam Caplan fantasy football show on Friday nights
#5 - Dan Patrick

Honestly I don't know about the draft coverage that they have. I picked up my receiver only a couple of weeks after the draft so I just missed out on it! GGRRR!!!!

You can bet that I will be listening this year though!!!!

I disagree. The fact that Sirius only has one of the 3 major Sports Talk Networks (ESPN Radio, Fox Sports Radio, and Sporting News Radio) while XM carries all 3, is very annoying.
