Halby’s Morsels: News travels fast. Jimmy Cefalo’s health setback hit us like a brick. His determination to keep going as long as he could shouldn’t surprise us. Jimmy was tough as nails on the field for the Dolphins and at Penn State. As a human being, you won’t find anyone nicer. More sports broadcast news is covered in this version of Halby’s Morsels.

After the Dodgers arrived in Southern California in 1958, the area’s population erupted. Chicago was America’s second biggest city at the time, behind New York. LA was third. Through the years, SoCal would surpass the Windy City. Blessed voices like Vin Scully, Chick Hearn and Dick Enberg would galvanize a growing city and build the popularity of the teams they covered.
Southern California’s top all-time play-by-play voices; It’s a who’s who list of some of the best ever!

The summer Olympics in Tokyo produced a lot of heat in the U.S., for its hard-to-find TV schedule across the vast NBC platform to direct shots from the Chinese themselves for NBC not showing a complete map of an expanded China. The question is, should America partake in the Winter Games next February in Beijing. Here’s a pretty nicely laid-out argument on how to proceed when the games are played in a totalitarian country on the other side of the globe.
Should the U.S. participate in the Beijing Olympics next winter, one hosted by a totalitarian country?
