First, a quick plug to ask for your votes for the annual “Best of RCN” contest. I would be remiss in not partaking in some shameless promotion of our “RCN SportsTalk” programs to vote for. Among the finalist for the “SportsTalk” nominations include:

  • Markelle Fultz’s H.S. Coach/Pro Baseball with Tom Housenick and Chuck Hixson – 6/20/17
  • Phillies Mid-Season Update with Steve Gross – 7/20/17
  • Eagles Camp/Former Coaches Show with Bob Stem & Bob Shriver – 8/3/17
  • NFL/HS Football; MLB Pennant Race with Freddie Coleman & Steve Shiffert – 9/7/17
  • Penn State/Ohio State Preview with Matt Millen – 10/26/17

Also, it’s almost time for the annual “SportsTalk” year-in-review show (not to be confused with the “Best of RCN” contest.)

Each year we toss out a variety of different topics to reflect upon for the previous 12 months, and we give our audience a chance to voice their opinion to our debate topics…something we’ll be doing on the next edition of the “SportsTalk” TV show.

So, if you’d like to weigh in on any of the following questions we’re posing—send us an email by this Thursday (12/14) at 7pm and we’ll read and respond to your email, along with Keith Groller & my own opinions to the following:
