I'd prefer the guys that have been closely following the team for the last few years. If they go with an old Ram they better make sure he can actually do the job. Commenting on air about sports is not something that just anyone is good at. Holt is not very good at it for example

We shall see, I thought Holt was good,, but it took a few years for the Rams to get good announcers in St. Louis, in fact, it was not until Dick Vermeil enticed Gary Bender and then the arrow started pointed upward.

IDK about DeMarco, but Steve Savard still works for KMOV and lives in STL. You should see his twitter description "former Rams play-by-play announcer with free time on Sundays". Funny, but sad.

D'Marco Farr is still on radio here in STL - afternoon drive on 101.1 ESPN - which was the home of the Rams. Doubt he'll be a part of anything out there. His family is here and he has young children and plugs his country club during on-air spots all the time.

I tried this at home with college games. The radio broadcast is ahead of the television feed. So you hear what happens about 30 seconds before you see it. With the Penguins games the internet radio app for kdka is 30 seconds behind the tv broadcast. Is there a way to sync them?
The only way I know is pausing your game on a DVR for about 30 seconds until the radio is at the point of the TV then unpause it.

I haven't listened in a while. I used to like listening to the 4 o'clock fight on my drive home which was 5 o'clock my time. Is the show not called The Fast Lane anymore?

Brilliant! Simple yet brilliant! Why didn't I think of that? Oh, that's right, I forget how to use my DVR half the time.

Well, not exsactly.
If the radio broadcast is ahead of the TV broascast, it will only spread the 2 even further.

HD signals are slower than standard def.
If you don't mind standard def, the radio and tv broadcast may be close.

That would work. It might be tough to get it perfect. But if the radio is ahead of the game it wouldn't.

Radio being ahead is OK with me. If you're getting a beer, etc. it can give you time to run back to the TV to catch the big play.

Just listen to the bozos on tv. It gives you something to laugh at and scream at the tv as well.

But if you can find a station that still streams the game for free, you can use an app or your computer. Those are usually delayed by a minute or so. Though I'm not sure if the NFL even allows stations to do that anymore since they have their own service to rob you with.

You will find free steams.

It's still called the Fast Lane. It has D'Marco, along with Randy Karraker (who is the smartest sports guy I've ever heard - and the guy who does the 4 O'Clock Fight), along with former Cardinal pitcher Brad Thompson.

New LA Rams Find Broadcast Home at KSPN and KSWD (100.3/The Sound)


(May 21, 2016)




To the best team in America:



After an understandably long process the Los Angeles Rams have made a decision on their broadcast partners. In partnership with ESPN 710, 100.3 will be the exclusive FM home for the Los Angeles Rams pre-game, in game and post games. 100.3 will be the first Los Angeles FM station to carry NFL football, ever! We are so proud to be part of sports history and serve our community in this way. We are looking forward to many more Southern Californian’s finding 100.3 on their FM radios.



We are also so very proud to be partnering with ESPN 710 and their great brand. With ESPN’s sports expertise, our 1.7m listeners (soon to be larger) and our signal strength reaching deep into San Diego so many more Southern Californians will be listening exclusively to their new team on 100.3 Congratulations to our entire team as I am so proud of who we are, what we stand for and everything we have accomplished over the years. I know the rumors are on the streets. They are true. A major NFL franchise, who took presentations from everyone, chose us. We are so proud to be able to deliver this exciting news to you. I am also so proud to be working with all of you and watching how all of you handle the highs and lows of business over the years. Congratulations to all of you! More details to follow. For your eyes only until the official announcement.

Oh nice, thanks, they play good music. Do you think they will stream the game.

Yeah I think they will, if not they will be on ESPN AM too.

Don't think so. You have to listen to it on-air, from XM or paying the NFL to listen to a stream. Local radio stations that broadcast the game are not allowed by the NFL to stream it. They can stream pre and post-game shows, but not the game itself.
