    Do people still listen to sports on the radio?

      I went to hockey games with my family. There is a gentleman in front of them who not only watches the game, but will also listen to the radio broadcast of it at the same time.

        Sometimes the radio announcer is better than whoever is calling the game for the tv. It can be much nicer to listen to.

          Ya some people mute the TV and listen to the radio and just accept it’ll be out of sync.

      Before multi channel tv and live streamings not all weekly games, if any, were on tv. I remember as a kid on game afternoonsa that you could hear the radio from many apartments all on the same station, the announcer is all excited and then the whole block cheering or crying on a goal or miss. Today you can still hear it when a national or international game is on live tv, but not the weekly league games. I’m feeling old.
