As most of you know, NESN (New England Sports Network) is in
desperate need of some vitality. It is—
hands down—the
worst regional sports network in America. Two recent examples: 1.) this past week-end had virtually
no Spring Training coverage (but plenty of
Charlie Moore Outdoors); 2.) they
still do not have a
Super-Slo-Mo replay capability for Red Sox broadcasts (a complete and total embarrassment). Anyway, word is that the team will meet with
David Ortiz next week in the Dominican Republic—
with an eye toward luring him into some kind of broadcasting role with NESN. Regarding a possible broadcasting role with the team, Red Sox President and CEO
Sam Kennedy said:
"I hope so, but I know he's done some Fox work I believe in the past. He's got such charisma and energy. I truly don't know what is on his mind. He'll obviously be good at whatever he decides." Please, David,
do it! We need some pizazz
and actual baseball knowledge for NESN broadcasts!
