Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


The Sports Ramble is Getting Ziggy With It.

Yes folks AN's own Brad Ziegler will join the Ramblers. And discuss his journey through the minors and his time in the bigs as well as his first big league win last Sunday . Feel free to call in and ask Brad some questions at 800-516-1220. We'll devote the entire first hour and more to the A's.

We'll also talk Sharks with Sharks play-by-play man Dan Rusanowsky who will join the show and discuss new Sharks head coach Todd McLellan and the NHL Draft. 

In addition to that we'll Ramble on the following topics:

  • The Bay Bridge Series or The Bay Bridge Rivalry? Does the A's- Giants rivalry hold water?
  • Jason Giambi, our former lovelable first baseman, turned dispicable trash talking Yankee. If the A's pick him up in a Frank Thomas like deal next season, would you welcome him back to the Bigitty Bigitty O with open Arms?
  • Your Phone Calls. We're looking to AN to step it up this week. We're working our butts off to bring you quality radio. All we ask is that you call and let us know what you think about the show and maybe chime in on the topic or any sports related topic. The number, again, is 800-516-1220.
    As Always the show airs from  8-10 p.m. on 1220 AM KNTS in the Bay Area and streams live at 1220knts.com all over the world.

Thanks for the heads up

Sharks and A’s? I’m all over it.

(FYI: It’s Rusanowsky)

I had Rusanowsky first

but was told it was wrong. Oh well 2 to 1 we win this spelling bee.

NO WAY IN HELL ON GIAMBI,

The analogy I was going to use on Buan last night was would you take your girlfriend back that cheated on you? Would you take her back even if she provided you with the most fantastic … you fill the blanks?

If you are a self-respecting person, the answer is clear. Hell NO!

No Giambi back in Oakland EVER! Eff that guy!

Didn't know Buan talked about it.

What was the consensus. BTW I’m with you. It was a hard break up! I don’t ever want to see him in Green and Gold again. We’ve been talking about it since the beginning of the week. I got pretty fired up over this one too.

I don't know what the concensus was because I wanted to call in to make my point and

was told it was a 30 minute hold. Buan seemed to be pushing for it, or at least playing the devil’s advocate, with the first caller who was against it initially.

Call in to our show on Sunday

We WILL take your call

I dislike Giambi for is exit, but he can hit and get on base

So yeah, if we can get Giambi for $2 next year, go for it.

The thing is, though, it also depends if Cunningham and/or Sweeney are ready for the everyday job and/or if Buck remembers how to hit. Because Cust will be the DH if thats the case.
