Last week’s death of The Sports Fan 990 AM was a total surprise. Or. Not.
The struggling radio station with the questionable leadership and the meek signal failed to see its first birthday, pulling the plug and forgoing its all-sports format for what – last I checked – sounded like old-time gospel music. That leaves us with only two sports talk stations — The Ticket and ESPN Radio. But considering that 990 never garnered enough listeners to even show up on Arbitron’s ratings radar, were there ever really three? — Richie Whitt
