A little of this and a little of that on a Monday morning:
So the Phillies will open the World Series in St. Petersburg, Florida and not Boston. The Tampa Bay Rays beat the Red Sox 3-1 in the 7th and deciding game of the American League Championship Series last night and will host the first two games of the World Series Wednesday and Thursday Night at Tropicana Field. Philly last won a World Series in 1980 and for Tampa Bay this of course is all new…they never had a winning season before this year.
It’s not unusual to be attending an event with a large crowd during election season and get word that a candidate is in attendance. So with over 110,000 people at Saturday’s Michigan-Penn State football game in State College, PA. it was an opportunity to get in some politicking for the Republican National ticket in the parking lot a couple of hours before kickoff. However seeing Sarah Palin’s husband Todd was not enough to get me to leave the comfort of my tailgating location.
For all the talk about how the Jets are so much better with Brett Favre at quarterback they lost to the Raiders in overtime Sunday and are just 3-3….can you say “same old Jets.”
From the “Big Picture Department.” Steven Sprague was 28-years old, married to his high school sweetheart Nikki and enjoying life as the father of a six-month old daughter Abigail. His life ended way too early on Thursday when he was working a construction project on the New Jersey Turnpike and he was hit by a car in which the driver fell asleep. The loss is a tragic one to so many….the Sprague, Madden and Hibbs families and the love for all of them was displayed Sunday when hundreds turned out at Anderson and Campbell Funeral Home in Toms River. A funeral mass will be held Wednesday at 10:30AM at St. Joseph’s Roman Catholic Church.
Tom Maciaszek worked at WOBM from somewhere in the early 70’s
until 2006 and did just about everything. He voice was familiar on both ourFM & AM stations and he was radio’s ultimate utility man. Sadly “Mr. Maze” passed away over the weekend. Funeral arrangements are still being made and we will let you know when details are available
