With the 2007 NFL draft fast approaching, like Rocky Balboa choking down raw eggs I’ve been listening to the 107.5 The Fan mornings from 10am - 11am when I can, training for the big draft day. Drew Smith, Sports Director for the Green Bay Fox affiliate WLUK is a good listen, and it’s always interesting to hear TV guys on the radio when they’re given the chance to freelance their content instead of reading from a pre-packaged script.
But “The Rookie” is to the ears what those raw eggs are to the palette. Tastes like crap; you just hope it’s good for you, otherwise all those dry heaves were for nothing.
Toward the end of the show today a fan call came in from what I believe was a sandwich artist claiming he has a regular customer that’s “up there” in the Packer organization, and that after he filled the sandwich with unwanted ingredients, Mr. Upthere mentioned that there might be an announcement on Friday that the sandwich artist would like. When pressed for more information, Mr. Upthere declined to give anymore information, saying “That’s all I can say! But I think you’re going to like it.”
Having said this to his lunchtime chef, a man whose fortunes rise and fall with the appetites of his clients, this can only mean one thing. We no longer need to search for lineman, because Subway has substituted their low-fat fare for deep fried salami and bacon sandwiches; Subway Spokesperson Jared Fogle is back up to playing weight, and he’s ready to start throwing his C-cups around.
Either that or Randy Moss is coming to Green Bay. I figure it’s a toss up between the two.
