Did anyone happen to hear it?
You were great.
You sound like an adult You have a real Texas drawl, which is great b/c every just thought that you talked slow, nobody knew that you were frantically trying to think up an answer (NL sleeper NL sleeper NL sleeper) "How about Ty Wigginton?" (damn he's in the AL!!)
You were near perfect. Just a few slip ups: Wigginton is in the AL, Iwamura wasn't drafted in the VKC, Lidge is not going to bounce back and I don't think that Mike Yam is "nappy headed".
Cool. I'm an adult instead of just some old man.
You think that drawl was bad, you should hear it if I kick in a real drawl.
He mentioned Iwumura for the AL and wanted someone like that for the NL and my brain froze. I admit it. Hey, I was nervous (and can admit that) and my hitting sleepers were basically all AL guys this year, so I mentioned Wigginton and thought I mentioned he was an AL guy too..... In my freeze though, I might not have. Sure thought I did though. Ah well. They seemed really happy afterwords too, so I must not have stunk it up too terribly bad.
Lidge will bounce back. I hope.
Yam's not nappy headed. Shame he was under the weather though. Bruce Murray and their producer (Trevor) are really nice guys though.

One of those random emails I get on a daily basis. I get all kinds of random emails every day, but once in awhile they turn out to be really interesting things. This was one of them. When the email came in, I didn't even blink at the header as a header with the word "interview" in it doesn't always mean what you think it means, but once I opened the email it seemed legit, real, and worth looking into. I checked out the show on the net the best I could (I never could decide which satellite to buy, so I have neither - but if they merge I'll probably buy), found it to be a reputable show, so I agreed to do it. They said they would plug the site in the original email, and that's all I wanted/needed in order to do it, so bingo. Done.
So for me this was pretty cool to get the site plugged on the radio and to getting to speak on the air, but I believe one of our members is on the radio every day, so he's probably getting a huge kick out of this whole conversation.

Me neither . He's smart though, and I always made a point to read his posts. Very solid.
