@scottfybush Congrats to you Scott! Impressive work.

Great to have @TimBrando and his @FOXSports crew in Minneapolis to call the @GopherSports tilt with the Hawkeyes. It’s been a long trip since our days together in Bristol!

@cowbellguy19 Worst clock management since you were producing (I kid, I kid!) But how do you let the guy kick AGAIN after he showed he didn't have the leg to get it that far and Carroll called the time out? SMH

Nice words from the Chairman of the FCC for the folks keeping your local tv and radio stations on the air.

Grateful to America's radio & TV broadcasters for all they're doing to help keep people informed & safe during the #COVID19 pandemic. They're running PSAs on #socialdistancing, airing educational shows, expanding local reporting, doing fundraisers, & more. https://t.co/GgFK7LUPIU

Couldn’t agree with this sentiment more. They deserve all the support and personal protective equipment we can give them. No speeches, no promises, just get it done. https://t.co/jaqJeE6Cy1

Fellow native son of Charleston, SC the inimitable @stephenathome makes the best observation about boiled peanuts ever, saying “South Carolinians are the only people in the world who looked at a peanut and said “what if it was damp?”” https://t.co/MPMCymC9e5
