Diversion

I don't consider myself a huge sports fan, but I do spend a fair amount of time listening to sports talk radio. 

Ben Maller, who does 2 to 6 AM on FOX Sports Radio is great fun.  Most of the weekend shows on CBS Sports Radio are exceptionally entertaining.

I use sports talk radio as a diversion.  I love news, and it's how I make a living, but there are times you need a break for a few hours.

Here's the problem.  So much of sports talk radio these days is dedicated to things like contract hold outs, drugs, money and assorted other controversies.  The "diversion" factor has less of an impact.  I know you can't ignore that stuff, but it does take away from the fun.

I might have to find a new diversion.
