Podcast
*****************
After having gone to Hofstra Law School and leaving a career in Real Estate, I decided it was time to work in sports. Currently, I work for the New Jersey Devils and I host my weekly fantasy sports program called, "Dick Santino's Fantasy Sports Show." It is LIVE on NYTalkRadio.Net at 7pm on Thursdays. (Go to the site for the podcasts if you miss the LIVE one) I have over 17 years of fantasy sports experience; I carry the pain of being a JETS, METS, KNICKS and ISLANDERS fan to the show. I bring insight with the fire of an everyday sports fanatic, like you.
What does this mean? Unlike many sports hosts or "experts" who are communication or journalist majors that enjoy sports, I am a sports guy presenting the information to you the way I wish it was being presented to me. The combination I possess of being a lifelong sports fan, an effective communicator trained in analytical thought and research gives me the edge on my competition.
The show's focus is on the hidden gems, and not the obvious. The show is fact driven, not opinion based. I cover player picks, fantasy strategies and I share my sports wagering tips. The information is free, not a paid for. The show is truly "The Fantasy Forum for the Fantasy Player".
I follow PRO and College Football, MLB, NBA, NCAA Basketball, NHL, Golf, European Soccer and NASCAR. I watch as much as possible and I read as much as I can. I decipher the info you are fed from the paid services, and I spew out with a fantasy angle. I am not an analyst; I am an expert fantasy player.
Like me, you have to be sick of listening to shows where talk trash is the selling point. Being a loud mouth and talking nonsense is all you hear. These shows have opinions, I present authority. My opinions come when you ask for it, but my crew sticks to the facts and the stats. Listeners can call in or send questions to
DickSantino@comcast.net
If you aren't listening to the show, you like being the competition, not beating the competition.
Thanks for paying attention and see you on the other side.
