  Hey Folks

Jiggs and I almost got it done. We had two days on the air on 101.1FM and it was a blast. Alas Merlin decided to reverse field and go with canned music. But make no mistake about it, we are still the best, we didn't skip a beat and look forward to more opportunities down the line.
Thanks
Mike

  Ozzie saying what he said gets him a five game suspension. I'm sure that will be viewed as not enough. Many people have lost loved ones in Cuba or escaped Castro and forever are damaged in some way. Sean Payton gets a year for not listening to Dictator Goodell. While Ozzie gets five games for professing his love for Fidel. Crazy! If a radio host in Florida especially in Miami or a TV anchor or a politician professes love for the Cuban leader, they are gone by dinner time period.

  Hey Folks

Good for the Jets, and Good Luck to Tim Tebow. To hear some people he didn't do anything last year.

Heck of a fourth quarter by the Bulls last night. Truly a team.

Peyton Manning is still 50-50 whether he plays this year. I'm just sayin.

So the League reportedly said to the Saints twice to stop the bounties. Why did they just warn them and not penalize them right away? And I'm still waiting for an illegal hit from ESPN since they are showing all the highlights.

Thanks
Mike

  Hey Folks
The NFL is a soft league= Period!!

But it's not about the bounties because Goodell warned them twice and the Saints didn't take action. They got this excessive reaction because of the Saints' arrogance and disobeying Goodell.

Good luck Tim Tebow

Thanks
Mike
