I am looking forward to the Superbowl ( I mean the Big Game) more than usual this year. By the way, the ads that you say that refer to the Superbowl as anything but the Superbowl are not being cute. The NFL, the folks who in all probability will end football as we know it when they lock out the players soon, has the ownership and copyright on that term and fiercely protects it.

In all seriousness I am actually pretty excited about this and flattered that the station would consider my feeble attempts at emulating progressive radio of the 60’s worthy of putting on the air again.

Today’s rant is from October of 2005. A friend of mine has a son who is a lawyer. He heard it when it was broadcast and told his father that it was probably time for me get over it. Son, there are some things in life you never get over.
