    Did anyone hear the radio broadcast of the San Antonio game? I was on the halftime show with Jeff Haggadorn and I want to know how it sounded. Maybe I'm just being paranoid, but I felt kinda odd down there.

    Any thoughts appreciated.

    Jeff, I couldn't get the damn KPRC feed, it kept buffering and then closing. It seemed like everyone else in the chat room were listening to you however. They said you sounded calm and collected, and a few even said you were their idol [​IMG] Everyone went nuts when you mentioned CC.net, we knew you were talking about the gang in the chat room.

    Great job Jeff!!! All your hard work is paying off.

    [20:44] [DrOfBullwinkle] www.jeffbalkerocks.com

    Notice the line where Bob (aka RudolFinn) said "Petitte lookin' good". I'm gonna include that here because I don't know if he meant the baseball player or if he was sayin' Jeff was petite and lookin' good.

    BTW, you did a great job on the broadcast, but one quote that Jim Foley had was "Jeff's been a fan of the Rockets since his younger days". I'd go jack him up... I wouldn't take that. [​IMG]

    Cool!!! Thanks guys. I was hoping everyone in the chat room heard that. I wanted to get a plug in for everyone.

    They didn't cut me off at all. Haggadorn was VERY cool and really nice. It was a trip sitting right there at the scorer's table. I just wish it was during the game! [​IMG]

    Did Peterson and Foley mention me? I didn't get to hear any of it. What did they say?

    Glad everyone like it.

    Speaking of younger days...Matt Thomas had me on KPRC on Thursday and said, "This is the young man..." before stopping and saying, "Wait, you're probably older than I am." When he found out I was 31, he said, "You are older than me." LOL!

    I was cracking up.

    D0D, lol. Of course I meant the way he was mowing down those Met hitters.

    I will get my revenge in the fantasy basketball league. My starters will play the entire game (even after we are leading by 30 in the 1st period [​IMG])

    Headline will read "PYTHONS DUNK DR.'s"

    Oh, and by the way, in case anyone was wondering about the funny nicknames, it was Antler night in the chat room.

    Jeff I listened. You did a good job, did they get mad that you to mentioned cc.net, because it seemed like he cut you off after you said it? Good job.

    Sounded good Jeff! Good voice for the radio. I heard you mention cc.net too.

    How did the "event" for early voting go? I was in Shreveport Wednesday and Thursday and was too tired to make it down there.

    Stevie,

    It went well. Check out the front page of SOR for details.

    I still haven't gotten an answer on what Peterson and Foley said. Any ideas anyone?
