And I salute WBZ for having that kind of news-sense, since sports is 
a big deal in Boston.  But what I heard on WEEI was syndicated, which 
is a sad commentary on the state of broadcasting today-- back in the 
not-so-long ago good old days, there was always somebody around doing 
live and local in a top ten market like Boston... On WEEI when I 
listened to the syndicated show, nobody was discussing the Patriots 
at all-- nationally, I am told, people dislike the coach and don't 
wanna talk about what the Patriots are doing.
