It's not for the play-by-play, but the NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS, as the SUPER BOWL approaches, have renewed their deal with ENTERCOM Sports WEEI-F/BOSTON and the WEEI SPORTS NETWORK for the weekly "PATRIOTS MONDAY" and "PATRIOTS FRIDAY" programming featuring quarterback TOM BRADY and coach BILL BELICHICK. The renewal is being described as a "multi-year partnership extension."
The MONDAY programming includes BRADY's weekly appearance on KIRK MINIHANE and GERRY CALLAHAN's morning show and BELICHICK appearing on DALE ARNOLD, MICHAEL HOLLEY, and RICH KEEFE's afternoon show, and other players appearing on GLENN ORDWAY, LOU MERLONI, and CHRISTIAN FAURIA's midday show. FRIDAYS include other PATRIOTS appearing on shows all day.
“As the voice of NEW ENGLAND sports, we’re proud to extend our partnership with the NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS, an elite organization that like ENTERCOM, is committed to bringing WEEI listeners and PATRIOTS fans the compelling sports content they seek,” said ENTERCOM/BOSTON SVP/Market Manager MARK HANNON.
“ENTERCOM is enthusiastic of and committed to its role as the nation’s premiere sports audio producer,” said ENTERCOM EVP/Programming CHRIS OLIVIERO. “Continuing this winning combination of WEEI and the PATRIOTS, one of ENTERCOM’s over 40 professional team partnerships, is a strong sign of that commitment and passion to our listeners.”
“Continuity is one of the keys to the KRAFT family’s success, and we are proud to have partnered with WEEI for more than two decades to broadcast PATRIOTS MONDAY and more recently the addition of PATRIOTS FRIDAY,” said PATRIOTS VP/Corporate Sales MURRAY KOHL. “We are happy to extend our agreement with WEEI and look forward to many more years of success together.”
The PATS' game coverage airs on crosstown BEASLEY Sports WBZ-A (98.5 THE SPORTS HUB)/BOSTON.
