Meet the Staff

I'm Chip Ramsey a career broadcaster who has been a sports radio program director in Milwaukee and Nashville. I've covered everything from high school and college sports (including the SEC, Big Ten, MVC and OVC) to Major League Baseball, The NFL and the NHL. I have a few things to say, and when I want to say them, I say them here.

I mostly talk about my teams, which would be the White Sox, Bears, and Blackhawks, but I do talk about other things as well. Thanks for dropping by. I hope you will bookmark this site and visit often!

Chip Shots: Another Promising Political Career May Be Over

Another Promising Political Career May Be Over

Reports out of Scottsdale, AZ are that TNT Analyst and former NBA star Charles Barkley was arrested for DUI. A police officer observed Barkley running a stop sign and pulled him over. Sir Charles refused a breathalyser (as most lawyers advise their clients) but submitted to a blood test.

Barkley was released after processing and left the cop shop in a cab.

Police termed the Barkley experience "unremarkable" and added that releasing people after a DUI arrest is common.

It will interesting to see how TNT reacts to this. It also may derail Barkley's dream to run for governor of Alabama in the future.

At least no one went through a window.
