    timing.. yeah it was the berkman one. not the best email but i didn't want to spend too much time since i doubted he would read it.. lol should have taped it becuase i know a lot of people that listen to the show but never get anything on it lol..

    oh well yeah it was the berkman one.. wasn't good enough to win anywyas so i guess its good he didn't pick an email winner. cause i'd have lost [​IMG]

    lol this was it.. hmm the archive is up with aduio online now hehe
    Hey Romey,
    Great interview with Lance Berkman. Everytime I hear or see an interview with Berkman it convinces me of just how good a guy he really is. Last season in an exhibition game before Berkman became a proven player I got a chance to meet him. He was walking along the fences signing autographs for everyone and being an all around good guy. I hadn't seen someone sign autographs so willingly before besides Lima Time. Lance is a good young player who may end up battling for the batting title with Alou this season and ex-astro gonzo. Lance is also a new father which may be part of how he has become mature so quickly. Props to you for the interview and to Lance. Young players like Lance are what is good about baseball today and gives Astros fans hope for the future and a team that willl contend for years. Once again great interview and Lance is the man.

    They have a weeks worth of archives you can listen to. I usually listen to Rome at night when doing stuff around the studio.
    Rocket Fan if I notice the Berkman email tonite, I'll Total Record the stream for you and send you the mp3 if the files not too big. You got high Bandwidth?

    BTW was it near the very end?
    Was it the 3rd hour?

    I've lucked out and had about 3 or 4 e-mails read on there. I had one about Tim Johnson, and I can't remember the other ones off hand. I've sent e-mails there, and he seems to remember mine name so a lot of times if my is decent he'll read it! [​IMG]

    rocksmilenium.. yeah this was the first serious one that meant anything i've sent in.... that i actually took a sec to write i think i sent one or two before.. this is the first i actaully tried on.. i think the key is getting him to know your name.. once you've had one or two read on there they will see the email address and look at it.. otherwise i think they probably end up deleteing a bunch withotu reading.. since they are so swamped with emails


    vegeance..thanks... lol it would have been nice to win lol.. afterwards he was like.. none are good enough to win lol..

    i'd have made it better but he was in seattle and not reading many emails i think he read like 3 all day.. the three in the contest.. the guy in La at the studio was only forwarding him the ones he thought were good so i figured there probably wasnt' a chance that mine would get from LA to seattle to him.. oh well... just glad i was on there without having to cuss or talk trash about anyone... lol plus i'm only a high school kid lol.. i can't do any better [​IMG] anywyas 2 of the 3 were from houston... if he would have ranked them my luck i would have got 3rd
