Local sports news

Bob Smizik looks at the state of sports reporting on the local television stations. It's not good, he says.

I wouldn't know. I never watch the news on TV.

The internet has almost completely replaced television for me. There's not much on TV that I want that I can't get in one-tenth the amount of time with the internet. I used to sit in hotel rooms and watch the ESPN ticker for that one score I wanted. This was as much fun as standing in a long check-out line at the supermarket. I have to watch four ads to get a score? Then I discovered that I can get the score by text message on my cell phone.
