Cheeze on Sportscenter.

Sign in to disble this ad
Anyone catch Sportscenter on ESPN last night? John Buccigross, who went to school at Heidelberg College, here in my hometown, read the top 10 plays of the week, and said:

"#9...what Gary Dickerson, lead singer, is to Rusty
Vinyl, Mark Andre
Fleury is to the Penguins."

Gary Dickerson is my lead singer, and Rusty Vinyl is my band! Gary is a professor at Heidelberg and was Buccigross' Communications Professor. That was our 15 minutes!

I thought it was going to be a link to you winning the donut eating contest last week.

No one else but people in our little town. There have been a lot of "Did you hear?" phone calls today.

I thought it was going to be a link to him fainting at the national spelling bee and then standing back up and nailing the word.

I love when cheeze does that.

Very cool Cheeze. I don't know anyone who works on ESPN.

But....does Gary know he is your lead singer in your band? You know how lead singers can get.

I thought this ws going to be something about Cheese aprehending Maurice Clarett with a couple hundred pounds of weed in an open pickup bed.

Never speed thru Fostoria!

I don't live in an NHL city, so it is pretty much non-existent around here. We have a WHL team with a loyal following, and that is it.

However....I keep up with my Pens.

...what is this "hockey" you speak of? And when does the only season that matters (i.e. football) start again?

I felt the same way for a long time. Give the NHL a chance, you'll like it. Maybe you can become a Pens fan, and then we can have one team both of us cheer for. Instead of being at each others throats all the time.

Ah man, remember, I'm about one hour west of Raleigh, NC, home of the Carolina Hurricanes.

I'm set for NHL, I just like yankin' chains.

Jealousy is an ugly emotion.

And we do get snow here, so it isn't a total abomination. The Florida Panthers however...hockey...in Miami?!?!?
