San Diego Sports
We spend a lot of time talking about what San Diego isn’t as a sports city. People aren’t extreme enough in their fandom here for others to notice, so it’s often assumed it needs to be shaped. For those in the business of selling sports in this community, a common move seems to be looking […]
This week the guys welcomed back Abby Hamblin from the San Diego Union Tribune! They broke down their semi-broken brackets, and talked about the state of college basketball in the One and Done Era. Then Dallas called in and they talked about 97.3 The Machine’s content that has become a troubling topic for many people […]
Okay here’s the deal: This is now the fifth time I’ve sat down to write this. It’s proving to be very difficult. You see, the plan was for the TKF staff to write about different aspects of Padres coverage going in to the season. Since I’ve spent the last year covering the radio side of […]

The fifth annual edition of my must follow list for Padres Twitter. From the official accounts to the bought-off, corrupted, clique blogs, they’re (almost) all here.
Every team needs coaches, and the Padres are no exception. Let’s start with the man calling the shots and work our way down to folks whose jobs we don’t really understand. Manager Andy Green is entering his third year as Padres manager, and while it’s fun to note that former staffers Dave Roberts and A.J. […]
