WOSU Public Media's Steve Brown and Thomas Bradley talk about everything from World Cup fever to Blue Jackets Hockey to Buckeye offseason.
The U.S. goalkeeper, Tim Howard, did everything he could and made 16 key saves on Tuesday, but it wasn't quite enough: the U.S. lost to Belgium 2-1 in extra time and is out of World Cup play. The World Cup did really well on TV in the U.S. Columbus had the second highest per capita viewership in the nation.
All of this talk of soccer fever keeps happening in the sports media. Do you think anyone fell in love with the game and will start following Chelsea or Everton or Manchester United?
CBJ
The Blue Jackets have been busy this offseason with free-agency, trades and the draft… And one superstar for the Blue Jackets is in the middle of tense contract negotiations. What does this Columbus team look like compared to the one that made the playoffs just a couple months ago? We talk to Aaron Portzline of the Columbus Dispatch.
Buckeye Football
We can talk all the soccer and hockey we want, but this is an OSU football town. It's always football season in Columbus. OSU coaches have landed some big recruits and Braxton Miller is still healing. For more on that we called Ben Axelrod from Buckeye Sports Bulletin.
