If you were thinking WGR Sports Radio was not far reaching, you would be wrong.
I was in New York City on business last week and while in a restaurant for lunch one day, I couldn’t help but overhear this conversation between a couple guys at the table next to me:
Balding Guy: So, what’s happening with the blog? You come up with anything?
Skinny Guy: No, nothing.
Balding Guy: Hey, did you catch Schopp & The Bulldog yesterday?
Skinny Guy: Yeah.
Balding Guy: I love that show! Do your Schopp. I’ll be Bulldog.
Skinny Guy: You?
Balding Guy: Yeah…I can be cool…and I got a nickname.
Skinny Guy: What, Koko the monkey?
Balding Guy: It’s T-bone!
Skinny Guy: Yeah, sure it is.
Balding Guy: See, this should be a blog. This is the blog.
Skinny Guy: What?
Balding Guy: This, just talking.
Skinny Guy: Yeah, right.
Balding Guy: I’m serious.
Skinny Guy: Just talking? Well, what’s the blog about?
Balding Guy: It’s about nothing.
Skinny Guy: No sports story?
Balding Guy: Have you been reading the winning blogs? Forget the sports story.
Skinny Guy: I think you may be on to something here.
Balding Guy: C’mon, do your Schopp. That just cracks me up.
Skinny Guy: (radio voice) “Do..…you..…think, or maybe you don’t. Would..…you..…think that… I’m being confusing. I don’t mean to be. If you were running a contest where the winner gets a spot on our Bills’ pregame show throughout the season, would you be more inclined to judge the blogs on say, knowledge of sports? Or maybe Bills knowledge? Maybe?”
Balding Guy: (animated ranting) “Nooooooooo. Noooo. It’s Jeremy. It’s Jeremy! He’ll be stuck with the…oh, I don’t know, I wanna say…boob. Can I say boob? He’ll be stuck with the boob that wins the thing. With all his chirping about leading us in the golf tournament bidding? Yeah, noooo, I can get behind that. I’m good with that. We should write a blog about nothing and get Dan Tullis to submit it.”
I guess I wasn’t the only person listening to their conversation because this crazy looking, disheveled guy having lunch with his buddy at the corner table couldn’t contain his laughter…
Disheveled Guy: (all knowing, somewhat devilish) “Ha Ha Ha…”
Skinny Guy: (all knowing, somewhat devilish) “Ha Ha Ha…”
Disheveled Guy: “Ha Ha Ha…”
Skinny Guy: “Ha Ha Ha…”
Disheveled Guy’s Buddy: (talking to Skinny Guy) “Hello Schopp.”
Skinny Guy: (talking to Disheveled Guy’s Buddy) “Hello Fillipponi.”
Disheveled Guy: (all knowing, somewhat devilish) “Ha Ha Ha…”
Skinny Guy: (all knowing, somewhat devilish) “Ha Ha Ha…”
Disheveled Guy: “Ha Ha Ha…”
Skinny Guy: “Ha Ha Ha…”
