Just got off the phone with Murph and Mac on KNBR and I have something to admit. I'm a late sleeper, so I got out of bed after 8:00 a.m. and grabbed a cup of coffee and walked downstairs to my office just in time for the call from the producer.
Which means I was sitting in my pajamas and slippers while I talked to Murph and Mac about Mike Singletary, Scot McCloughan, Mike Martz, etc. I was sitting in my pajamas while a whole group of KNBR faithful were listening to me and maybe even taking me seriously. And I was thinking, "This is the life."
Years ago when I worked for the SF paper I did a regular Thursday spot with Ralph in the afternoon on KNBR -- got paid 50 bucks a shot in case you're wondering. It was late in the day and by then I had changed into my clothes.
Well you sounded pretty awake to me. I was amused that you recommended Jed York find a mentor. That would require an absence of ego and a dedication to doing the right thing on his part. By the way, I listened in my office (on my computer), while putting together some numbers for our company. After working some pretty tough physical jobs in my youth I was thinking the same thing…”this is the life”. Good job today, you were very articulate.
