Farewell Johnny Holliday

[hotshot]

Think Kolko or Kerr could handle Johnny's spot easily enough. Wouldn't say the same about Phil Wood.

I'd like to see Rob Dibble

 

[Nick the Pig]

Nothing at all against the dude, but...

I can swear I have a memory from him doing radio voice infomercials in the late 60's.

Always thought of him as a sober Jim Brockmire.  A "voice" guy.  Little substance.

Enjoy your retirement, Johnny.  I didn't like you much, but I didn't hate you either...

He was a deejay on some big 50,000 watt stations in San Francisco, Cleveland and NYC. Not the top dog but in a pretty select group to make it to those radio powerhouses. Started in the early 60s I think.

He's basically the same dude who did this for That 70's Show:

Alex Chappell is Alex Corddry. She got married this weekend and changed her name.

Thank you to whoever decided not to give the gig to Morse.  Porter should be fantastic.

So Johnny used to be the backup PBP guy when Bob was off. Does that mean it's Kolko now?

That feels like a little more lively of a show.  Kolko has grown on me as his baseball knowledge has improved.

Agreed, I'm glad we get more of him now. 

[GburgNatsFan]

This could have been so much worse. I expected it to be so much worse.

The important thing is she’s a hottie.

[PowerBoater69]

Alex Chappell is Alex Corddry. She got married this weekend and changed her name.

More importantly she is cousins with Rob "Violator" Corddry.

Plus, Bo could be manager in waiting. Booth to dugout isn't far.

Have no idea who that is. Did someone steal a vow from their family?

Kolko is both competent and annoying.  And the luckiest man in the world.

I had to use my google machine.    I must have seen him at some point.    I watched the Daily Show.

If you haven't seen Hot Tub Time Machine watch it, maybe the funniest movie ever made.

Mitlen's movie maven (the missus) sez she saw it and recommends it as well.      However, it is not part of our in house collection.     May get a used copy off ebay.
