you don't want it you don't need it but you're going to get it anyway the kevin sheean show

here's kevin all right i'm here Tommy is here and yes we did have a show Stephen the other day

titled fractured foot um Tommy's got an update on his foot coming up.

And we, more importantly, have some breaking news this morning on the sale of the team, Tommy.

Adam Schaefter tweeted out earlier this morning.

DC billionaire Mitchell Rails is partnering with Josh Harris

in their attempt to buy the Washington commanders per league source.

Rails is the co-founder of the Donaheher Corporation, D.C.'s largest company.

I would also just add Mitchell Rails and his brother Stephen Rails bought WTEM

980 back in 1992 and switched it to Sports Talk 980.

It was the beginning of 24 hours a day, seven days a week, sports talk radio in this market.

And the first person they hired was Andy Poland, who became the sports director working for the Rails Brothers.

And, you know, they sold the radio station at the exact right time.

It was before, you know, kind of the rules about owning certain numbers of stations and the

markets were changing and they sold it to Clear Channel for a boatload of money back in, I think, 99, 98, something like that.

I forget what year in particular.

And he's got all of the historicals on Sports Talk 980, which became ESPN 980, which became the Team 980.

But it was the Rails Brothers who were also, one other quick note about them.

They are also alums of Walt Whitman High School in Bethesda, where I am also an alum of Walt Whitman, a high school.

So you got a connection. You know these guys.

You know it's so funny. I don't know these guys at all.

But I will tell you a quick story because it only happened a couple of months ago.
