Our sports commentary show “The Blitz” now returns to KZSM.org at a new time, 4-5 p.m. Sundays, after a hiatus while host Damian Entrican adjusted to the altered state of the sports world during the pandemic.
“The Blitz” began with the birth of the station in 2017, as “Anything But Soccer” because of co-host Len Hickey’s antipathy to the game. Craig K eventually replaced Hickey as co-host, and discussions expanded to “everything in the sports world and beyond.” “We’d get off on tangents, and we’d roll with it,” Entrican explains.
Baseball held a special place in the wide-ranging sports talk on “The Blitz.” Entrican worked on the ground crew and operated the scoreboard at Wrigley Field in Chicago for thirteen years. His connection to the Cubs brought pitchers Turk Wendell and Randy Wells on to his show.
