Uncle, I am listening right now and the announcement will probably not happen until the end of the show. I will post what it was when they announce it.

If I understand it correctly, it's radio and internet audio.

Video would have been more impressive. Most hardcore fans can track down audio on almost any game if they are willing to put up with homer announcers.

Which is fantastic...unless you are a Comcast customer and can't get ESPN360...
And I'm one of the millions who can't get Dish because I don't have access to the southwest sky to see the bird
