What's Wrong With This Picture?

It looks like Sirius was not originally planning to visit Cheney as part of their training camp coverage. However, the show The Afternoon Blitz will now be broadcasting from Seahawks camp on August 16th from 12-4pm. If you do not have Sirius, you can still listen to the broadcast on-line. You can sign-up for a free 3-day trial. If you sign-up on August 14th, you should also be able to hear the camp coverage of the Ravens and Chiefs (8/14) and the Packers and 49ers (8/15) on various Sirius shows from 8am-4pm.

The Afternoon Blitz airs weekdays from 12-4pm and they describe it as follows "Jerry Rice, Adam Schein and Solomon Wilcots take your calls and invite you to get involved in the conversation." You can also contact Adam Schein by e-mail (aschein@siriusradio.com). Recently on the show, Adam Schein asked Rice about his plans to retire with San Franciso, he said, "We have had talks about what we’re going to do this upcoming season and we’re just trying to nail down which game. I think I might have said something like maybe the Seattle game, but it’s not something that's concrete right now. But I think that would be great if we can do that. I played for the Niners. I played for Seattle. I think it would be just awesome for me to retire my jersey on that night." San Francisco and Seattle are where he started and finished his career. Even though he spent 3 full seasons with Oakland, the 49ers home game against Seattle makes the most sense because he did not leave the Raiders on the best terms.
