ME!!! (I wasn't sure where to mention this for a minute so I decided with The Courtyard, break up all this political talk)

I will be reporting live from the Indian River-Kings Fork football game as part of The High School Football Scoreboard Show on ESPN Radio 94.1

This will be my first radio appearance in 4 years and my first ever radio appearance in the Hampton Roads area. The show will be from 7-11 PM and for all of you not in the area (which is Id say 90% of you) you can listen live at www.espnradio941.com. Just praying for good weather and lots of scoring

Lol...given that the teams involved are the Braves and the Bulldogs I won't see much need to even test those waters

Um LCA. And you're racially insensitive if you say Braves. So you are in for a tough night. Ha

Got rave reviews from the host...just need to slow down a bit, but he understood the nerves being my first time on their air. Will find out hopefully soon where I am this week!
