Didn’t he bring us the longest running local sports radio show in Triad history? Didn’t he graduate from EZU? Didn’t he major in communications? Didn’t he bring us tons of giveaways? Didn’t we all chuckle when he called The Miracle on Ice the silver medal game? Didn’t he ask for this review? Didn’t you enjoy this as much as I did? #2 D’s in didn’t. Well worth the listen.
I still give this show 5 stars, even though the “Armando” drop has been retired. Also, WD needs to watch Uncle Buck
I love the drive
