Sports radio (and sports writing) has been a passion of mine since the 1980s and talk radio has quickly climbed the list of priorities for me as well. I've broadcast roughly 7,000 games over the last 30 years or so, figuring our a way to get paid for watching sports.

Fortunately, I've been married to the best woman alive for more than 33 years and wouldn't trade a single minute of it.
