I love that NHL hockey broadcasts aren't locked away under a subscription wall
Love listening to baseball on the radio, refuse to pay MLB 20 bucks for the privilege, though I came close to capitulating this year.
I think the NHL owes its fans free internet radio feeds in perpetuity for the Sportschannel America and Versus disasters.

I don’t mind baseball on the radio. I have to really be in the mood though. Sometimes it can be very boring, others very nostalgic. All depends on the announcer I suppose.
Hockey is hard to listen to on the radio but mainly because it’s the sort of game you don’t want to miss seeing. In the past I read a great article on a woman in Long Island who was blind and listened to (and taped) every Islanders game for years. Rick Reily wrote the article actually, and while I’m not a huge fan of his I did like the story behind it all. She eventually went to a game and even listened to the radio in the crowd. Thought that was pretty rad.
