This Just In . . .

. . . to GameTime, TBD©. We do not know how many of you are listeners of The Dan Patrick Show (broadcast in the Los Angeles area on AM570), but today DP let slip that a big announcement is forthcoming tomorrow (Friday, March 13th) regarding his show.

Sources close to The Chief of GameTime, TBD© have confirmed that in a little over six hours (9:00 a.m. EST, 6:00 a.m PST), USA Today and DP will announce that an exclusive agreement has been reached between The Dan Patrick Show and DirecTV to broadcast the show on DirecTV's original content channel, Channel 101, more commonly referred to as "The 101 Network".  While final details of the agreement could not be officially confirmed, it is believed that a studio is currently being prepared for the production of The Dan Patrick Show near DirecTV's El Segundo, California headquarters, where most of DirecTV's original content is produced.  All signs point to DP heading West, where he belongs.  We do not know if "Chris in Syracuse" or the other follicles are current customers of DirecTV, but we are guessing they soon will be (that's assuming that CIS recovers from the marathon that was tonight's 6-OT Syracuse/Connecticut game sometime soon).

Stay tuned to GameTime, TBD©, The Dan Patrick Show, and USA Today as the remaining details of this exciting news are announced (and for recommendations on where DP and crew can carry on the "Beer and Wings" post-game celebration tradition . . . Stick and Stein anyone?)
