XTRA Sports

March 27th, 2008 by Genevieve

XTRA SPORTS 1360AMWhen I started my career in television, I had the privilege of working with well known sports talk radio talent Chris Ello. We worked as hosts on a syndicated TV program called Gulls In Flight on San Diego 4. The show supported the San Diego Gulls, a professional ice hockey team that played in the IHL (later the ECHL), and was geared to teach people about the sport and to give the Gulls’ fans a look at life for the players outside of the rink.

The show was a hit and received great ratings. We had a fun time together and still have many, many fond memories from those days.

He brings years of experience to the air, stemming from San Diego’s original XTRA Sports station. Count on him to provide some insightful and opinionated views on sports.

When he found out that the second season of Bidding Wars - the TV show I host on ESPN2 - was about to begin airing, he invited me to come in the studio for a chat. Have a listen…
