We have heavy hearts this week on the newest show, as prominent MLB/Tampa Bay Rays radio broadcaster Dave Wills died suddenly Sunday. Host T.J. Rives is back and has thoughts and guests to remember the classy, talented broadcaster.

However, the show begins with T.J. talking the Big East Tournament beginning in college hoops and more with Rob Stone of Fox Sports. Rob, the college sports host for Fox, gives great insight on covering this event year after year at Madison Square Garden and why it’s so iconic in March? Rob also speaks more to Fox’s coverage this past November of the World Cup in Qatar and what that was like as a broadcaster and huge supporter of the sport?

Then, T.J. welcomes two guests: Steve Carney of StPeteNine.com and his Tampa Bay Rays themed “Under the Orange Roof” podcast, as well as, George Ofman, who hosts “Tell me a story I don’t know” a great sports story telling podcast on this feed. The guys give their stories and remembrances of Dave Wills and what he did for and meant to them.

It’s all part of the latest “Last Word On Sports Media Podcast,” which you can hear by clicking the link below,
