"Tailgate Radio" isn't on terrestrial bands, at least not yet. It's an Internet-only station from country crooner Garth Brooks and TuneIn.com and it provides a bizarre marriage between the world of sports and different eras of music. You might think never the twain shall meet (and I'm not talking about Shania!) but those behind the format believe it can work. 

The station won't actually air any sports coverage - just recaps - but it plans to provide tunes geared to sports fans, whatever that means. 

Billboard Magazine says it: 

"will highlight the 20 biggest songs across all genres from a specific year as well as tying them in with the biggest sports stories from that year.

Elsewhere, Block Party will be a Saturday night four-hour mix show featuring contemporary music from artists ranging from Luke Combs to Beyonce to Eminem. And Tailgate Takeover will feature celebrities, artists and athletes as guest hosts, allowing them to talk about the music and playlists that help them set their favorite vibe; Brooks will host the first edition." 

I'm assuming most of the tunes will have little to do with sports, since there just aren't that many songs that fit the category. How many times can you play "Backfield In Motion" by Mel & Tim or "Centerfield" by John Fogerty? Does "All In The Game" by Tommy Edwards or "Games People Play" by Joe South, The Spinners or The Alan Parsons Project count? What about "Na Na Na Na, Hey Hey, Kiss Him Goodbye?"

The "station" will be available 24/7 online.
