I'm still pretty excited about it. We aren't going to get roster news for a while.
And we can always just go back to talking about beer and gambling. Either way, there shouldn't be much convo now. GAME ON! |

Not sure why the congrats to Sylvester going from the broadcast booth to wgr sounds like a demotion to me

I dont know anyone else besides Duff that could be considered better with the quality of information and insight they offer during broadcasts.
Rick?
Harry?
Mike?
Kevin?
Nope |

He goes from the half hour pregame show and intermission bumpers to 2 hours a day, 5 days a week. Plus he is the host and producer. It's a nice step for a loyal company guy.
I can see where it might be a demotion, but if you can get more Brian Duff, you do it. |

I find him to be pretty insightful, actually.
Overall, I hope this is a move to get Duff more into the swing of things and transition Sylvester into more of an "on air personality" role. At least I could choose not to listen to his show.

Thing about Empire, it was backed by a cable distributor with a near monopoly on regional tv subscribers. Pegula doesn't own any of thy, and faces a more fragmented delivery landscape than when the Rigases where robbing people blind.
Not to say it can't happen, but there are major obstacles to it going down. I'd dig it though. |
