Ya, but regardless, Salisbury is a blowhard and a total asshole.

Trent Dilfer is a pretty good studio analyst.

I really like Aikman as well, too bad Joe Buck ruins all the good Aikmen brings.

Does anyone think it would influence anyone in the proper place if one were to write a letter to the MNF powers-that-be begging them to get rid of Tony Kornheiser?

I truly cannot stand that man and it's not JUST his unrelenting obsession with Brett Favre.   He adds nothing to the broadcast and in fact detracts from the event in a huge way with his odd comments and input.

Who would we write to?

I was shocked to hear they got rid of the Franchise. I actually called When I lived in Robbinsdale.

That is when the station was the Whale or something in the early 90's, anyway Chad was trying to launch a sports talk show and when all we had were Tom and Dan, then Tom got too big for Dan and he muscled it into the KQ morning crew thing. There really was nothing out there dedicated to sports, anything that was dedicated for more than a half hour. The ironic thing was once KFAN was born out of the whale and got popular, Chad starting talking less and less about sports.

I like him for the most part, but you make a great point about spreading out a story to nowhere and then with the tangent there was always the threat that he would never come back to the point.

Tom Barnyard. The irony is I had to find a new station to listen to in the am because I couldn't stand listening to his whiny babyness, it turned out to be the Fan. Fortunately he is on opposite the Bitter One, so I can switch back to KQ in the pm.

2925 Zenith Avenue from 1988 to 1992. My first house a tan stucco on the corner with a detached garage. 3 blocks down the alley from North Memorial ....Which came in handy as my daughter was born there Dec 88 and my son, Feb 90. I worked for Radisson on 494 and 55 in Plymouth at the time and my wife worked for the state of MN in the Ford bldg St Paul. So buying the house in Robbindale was for affordability and halfway point for jobs purposes.

I was and 1981 grad from a town 90 miles Northwest of Fargo.

I worked with a gal back than that was an 81 grad of Armstrong, her parents lived a half a block away, her name was Jane Ann Streigle or something, I just remember the Jane Ann part, she worked in the gift shop, nice girl.
