Pinnacle Sports just can't manage broadcasting talent. While I liked
John Bishop and thought he was doing a pretty good job,
I liked Gary Sharp much better both as a sports show host and baseball
commentator. I also liked Gary Java and am glad he
is going to be back.
Randy Lee and Matt Davidson are good people, but rather dry and
unimaginative as talk show hosts. I thought that was the reason they
made Bishop stop doing baseball to concentrate on "Sports Nightly". I
remember listening (and turning off Sports
Nightly) when Bishop was away doing baseball and Lee and Davidson was
doing the show. It just couldn't keep my attention.
Here is a what if thought. Perhaps they are going to move Jim Rose more
as a Pinnicle employee and bring back
Kent Pavelka to team up with Gary Saddlemeyer at KFAB. Gary and Kent
made a pretty good team in the morning and
also on football broadcasts.
