PODCAST: ON THE DL
Another PW takeover, and in this episode, we talk with David Aldridge of TNT, and formerly of the Philadelphia Inquirer. David has had quite the career, working for the Washington Post and ESPN before his most recent stops, covering everything from the Redskins and Bullets in DC to the big four in Philly to Stanley Cups and World Series to the Barcelona Olympics in '92. And that's not forgetting his fantastic work covering the NBA.
We talk with David about the change in the industry of sportswriting and where both TV and blogs fit in. We also talk at length about sportswriting and race, and I ask how David feels about the popularity of Stephen A. Smith.
We also talk about Kobe, the NBA Finals, and what is a bigger issue for the league, recreational drugs or gambling.
Oh, and since David is a HUGE political nut, we ask who he thinks our next President will be.
