Snowed Out from a Sour Message

8 February, 2011

Funny story: about two weeks ago I got a fresh request to appear on 106.7 the Fan’s ‘Overtime‘ evening program, but I fielded the request while in one of the few Bethesda, Md., commercial properties with power that night (a bar); we’d just been snow-blasted by Mother Nature. My home — Pepco-powered — was of [...]

OFB TV: Turn Back the Clock Night Brings Similar Results

2 February, 2011

On Tuesday night the Capitals played in their retro jerseys to commemorate one time Cap, Dino Ciccarelli. While the team jumped out strong in the first period, turning back the clock still led to similar results in the form of a 3-2 shootout loss to the Montreal Canadiens. John Keeley is joined by Sky Kerstein of 106.7 The Fan to discuss the game.

The Capitals’ Organization Completes a Hat Trick of Broadcast Triumph This Season

28 January, 2011

Big-time congratulations are in order to the Hershey Bears’ John Walton, who called his 1,000th American League game last night in Hershey’s 4-3 win over Springfield at Giant Center. Thursday’s game was a reschedule from Wednesday night, when thundersnow struck the central PA community just as it did D.C.’s. It’s been a hat trick of [...]

Back Behind Enemy Lines

18 January, 2011

I will never not root for a nuclear holocaust to strike Philadelphia first among American cities (Pittsburgh a close second), and especially all of these arenas and stadiums new and old that populate south Philly on a single, blighted looking industrial property, but I must credit the Flyers’ organization for being supportive of out-of-town hockey [...]

More Puck Chattin’ on the Fan

13 January, 2011

Right before the Caps stinker performances in Florida this week we took some time to talk to the boys on ‘Overtime’ on 106.7 The Fan. Always a fun gig. Some of the issues they discussed — second line center by committee, the underwhelming performances this season by a litany of skilled forwards, the captain’s ongoing, [...]

Will New Promises Made Be Promises Kept?

8 December, 2010

I’m a day late posting this, so my apologies in advance. I was contacted late last week concerning an open letter that would appear on ESPN980.com recommiting the station to covering the Caps. I responded that while it is great that station management is focused on expanding Caps coverage, actions speak louder than words and [...]
