TV Or Not TV

The Times reports on the slow progress in the TV and Radio deals. And as with all things, Peter Angelos is the root of all evil.

I really hope that 980 doesn't get it. Their host's inability to talk about anything other than Redskins is frustrating. They wouldn't promote the team at all, and would probably barely know the player's names.

This year, for example, the Wizards are exceeding their typically low expectations and the Redskins are far below theirs. Yet, all you can hear is talk about Gibbs, Ramsey, and the disgusting disgrace that is their offensive line.

And if the Nats were to prove to be a disappointment, they'd either get zero coverage, or they'd get absolutely buried under the latest Redskins practice squad signings.

The team probably will need a little nurturing at first and 980 isn't very motherly.
