On Friday I was a guest host up in Sacramento, 6-10 am, on Sactown Sports 1140. Naturally we rolled into some college football talk. With the transfer portal and NIL front and center right now, here’s how that topic went.

@volgirl07 Absolutely!

@CGProgram Beautiful and thrilling I’m sure!

We were talking about hot air balloons on our morning program moments ago. This was my trip over the Central Valley. When the guy blasted the flame, let’s just say I wasn’t read for it. 😂

@cbrentv3 Morning Brent!

@CGProgram How damn cool. Hello from middle Tennessee

@justavolgirl Couple of things going on here… 1. Hi, I’m a KFC addict. 2. While I’ve never been to this one, if I’m driving anywhere in North America and I see a giant chicken… I’m pulling in. 🐔

Iykyk 🐔

@airplaneguy007 F bombs? In Homer’s epic tale??? I don’t remember those when I read it back in high school! 🤣 I think I’m seeing it this weekend… Can’t wait. I’ve heard nothing but great things.

@CGProgram r rating for the violence and a few f bombs. Excellent movie. Did not seem like 3 hours.

Good morning and Happy Monday from KMJ Radio in California! The World Cup is over. Now what? Well….. The countdown to the Premier League is on.

Wow! The longest I’ve ever been in a security line covering an event was just over an hour. Enjoy and crush it for the Miami Herald today, Michelle.

@JohnMamola 100%. Their broadcast teams and studio shows in particular have been outstanding. Rebecca Lowe, as she did in the Olympics, is a great studio host. She understands pacing, nuance and how to create space for her panel (in particular Thierry Henry and Zlatan Ibrahimović) to shine.

Fox Sports has done a masterful job of capturing and presenting this World Cup

@DADDYDAV_VFL @CamWorrell Mike Adamle, right? Remember him very well.

@CGProgram @CamWorrell I think I shared this with you before, my first Doctor as an adult was Dr.Tony Adamle , you may recall his son was also a pro football player and later was an announcer for NBC Sports in the early 80’s, he unfortunately received to many concussions and suffered from CTE

When I joined ESPN Fresno I was told a week before Fresno State’s opening football game I would be co-hosting Game Day Live with @CamWorrell. My first thought was “THE Cam Worrell??” As a born and raised Chicago Bears fan it was indeed THAT Cam Worrell. And so began an amazing run working with an elite football mind in front of thousands of people on the west side of then Bulldog Stadium, on the phone for every road game and together for bowl games, notably the Las Vegas Bowl. Cam has been the sideline reporter for Bulldogs Football seemingly forever. He’s moving on and I can’t help but think what a loss this is for Fresno State fans everywhere. I will tell you of all the people I’ve worked with in broadcasting for 22 years, no one has ever been more prepared, more knowledgeable, and more fun than the hard hitting safety out of Chowchilla, Fresno State and the Chicago Bears. I hope an NFL analyst job is in his future because he could walk into a booth tomorrow. He is that good. Thankfully, he will continue to come on my program because… well, he is that good. 

@DADDYDAV_VFL @CamWorrell Same. One of my favorite college highlights was being in the Coliseum for Joe Montana’s final regular season game at Notre Dame. The Irish were down big to SC at halftime only to see him lead ND all the way back but… then lose on a FG as time expired. Incredible game.

@CGProgram @CamWorrell I am so blessed to have grown up in an era where there were so many outstanding players and coaches, both in the NFL and College. 🏈

@DADDYDAV_VFL @CamWorrell I grew up following them. They were the fiercest duo I’ve ever seen.

@CGProgram @CamWorrell Doug Plank and Gary Fencik …. “The Hit Men “…… The Bears can Thank Woody Hayes for developing Doug 🏈

Appreciate you, @tfmeehan68!

🇫🇷 France 4 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 England 6 Well that was great fun! What a 2nd half. So much for a match that meant nothing!

France! Mbappe! What a match this has turned into! 🇫🇷🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Now 4-3 and an eternity left on the clock.

And suddenly the French have awakened! 🇫🇷🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Now 4-2 and we’ve got a match!

@BobLawson8 100% Bob.

@CGProgram He should have been calling the final. By far the best announcing team of the tournament

“The first past was sublime, the second one was ridiculous.” - Darren Fletcher, calling 🇫🇷 France - 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿England Really appreciate his no-nonsense approach this entire World Cup. Pulls no punches. Never sugarcoats.

@SomeRndmGuyUT The patron journey: 1. See The Odyssey 2. See The Odyssey again 3. Write compare/contrast for The Odyssey and a season of Tennessee Football.

The Odyssey. In IMAX. Round two.

@JohnMamola Anything over $9500 and I’m out.

The couch gets more comfy every year
