In 1994, Rick Kamla got his start as the senior NBA and NFL editor for Fanball.com and Fantasy Football Weekly.

Rick has hosted or co-hosted nationally syndicated and local radio programs since 1999 on Westwood One, Sports Byline USA, and KFAN-AM (Minneapolis).

During the show, Rick summarizes the games that were played that day or evening in the NBA from both the fantasy and reality perspectives, takes calls and answers emails, and offers commentary.
