That was extremely well written and informative, I should just read that for the next podcast and close it out. ;D  I hope you dropped a mike and walked away from the laptop after writing that.

FYI, this is the kind of coverage and writing the MJS should be providing

Excellent article.

He had his chance to be on the same list/in the same sentence as Al... in about 15 more years.  I personally would have given him that chance and would have enjoyed seeing "crazy" become "eccentric".  

Good luck to Buzz.

Better luck to our new Head Coach.
