Brewers - Rays World Series + Joe Buck And Troy Aikman Truly Splitting Up? And More With Steve Carney!
Tuesday, 20 October, 2026

We're back with the latest in sports media news, ratings and opinions on the "LWOS Media Podcast!"This week host T.J. Rives is joined by Steve Carney his longtime Tampa Bay media friend to go over:The Milwaukee Brewers and the Tampa Bay Rays have made the 2026 World Series. Is this destined to flop on Fox Sports or might some of America care more about an "underdog" type world series like this vs. having the Dodgers, the Yankees, the Red Sox, etc.? Also, how silly is the criticism of Fox's Joe Davis on being biased towards the L.A. Dodgers? The guys discuss.Then, they talk whether after 25 years that Joe Buck and Troy Aikman are really about to split up and not broadcast the NFL anymore. This after they apparently had an argument in the booth last Monay night in L.A. prior to broadcasting the Rams/Bills game. Neither of them are denying that it happened and what does it really mean? Aikman is this insulted and going to leave. Has ESPN wanted all along to go to someone like Fox's Greg Olsen or maybe Jason Kelce? Could one of the Manning brothers be a "wild card" to join Buck?The guys also discuss the NBA season getting underway and "The NBA on NBC" still living in the 90s with their coverage and some tremendous, dramatic upsets in College Football bodes well for the interest and finshi of the season.It's all part of the "LWOS Media Podcast" and make sure to follow/subscribe on Apple/Spreaker/Spotify, etc.!
