FOX SPORTS NET ACROSS AMERICA
FSN's sports magazine show comprised of great local stories that also have national appeal, produced by FSN's regional sports networks, continues on Saturday with an all-new episode. The 30-minute show highlights players, coaches, events and the biggest news from the world of sports. Carolyn Hughes hosts the show and each week noted Chicago Sun-Times columnist Rick Telander offers commentary on the most pressing issues in the sports world in a segment titled: "An audible?from Rick Telander." FSNAA airs on Saturday nights at 10:30 PM local.
As an integral member of the brash Mets of the mid-1980s and the blue-collar Phillies of the early 1990s, Lenny Dykstra set the tone for both teams. In 12 seasons, Nails pushed himself to the limits, sliding, diving, and playing with reckless abandon. Today, Dykstra keeps that fiery spirit, as owner of a car wash business in Southern California, which some consider to be the best in the country.
Rick Telander's audible looks at the Los Angeles Lakers from top to bottom. The last four weeks have been a circus for the Lakers organization. Rick explains how Shaq, Kobe, Phil, and Dr. Jerry Buss have ruined a great thing and why that group proves there really is a "ME" in team.
