What was it like listening to sports games on the radio?

Listening to baseball on the radio is comfy as fuck. Used to do it at my grandpa's house while we played cards. He gave me candy when I won, shit was so cash.

>tfw listening to comfy spring training games on the radio

Diehard baseball fan. I had a 30 minute walk in high school to class. So for day games, on my way home, I could listen to them on some cheap AM radio I bought. Max comfy. And desu baseball is like the only sport you can narrate on radio, that and football.

I used to listen to a lot of football (soccer) games on the radio when I was in college. I was too poor to afford good internet so streaming wasn't a possibility, and I didn't have cable either. It's not bad at all, actually radio commentators are much better than TV ones. The coverage is also more deep and listening to the same stations means that you get used to inside jokes that make the games funnier.

10/10 experience. And if TV wasn't always delayed, I'd watch it synchronized with the radio.
