I think it's good when you can offer fans, and whoever else, a point of view that is not commonly available. Why not have another jock every other week -- some Q&A, insight, etc?

Richard Migliore of course would be great at this. The passion he has for the game is never ending. Mike Luzzi is another one. I've heard Mike with fans answering questions, providing insight, etc. and he's good at it. Aaron Gryder is excellent in this type of setting.

Eric..

You managed to get almost all of the Italian and Jewish jocks in.. Good job.

Tony Black is fascinating and has seen/done it all. 5,100+ races won and likely another 1,500 lost to alcohol, drugs and similar poor decisions... and he gives you everything straight from the gut or heart. He's one of the most popular regulars.

Mig calls in pretty regularly...

Jewish? LOL. Tony is a fascinating character, and having met him, spoke with him, etc. a few times, I enjoy his segment more knowing the kind of guy he is. I know Mig calls in and it's great when he does. I think if you scheduled him in on a semi-regular basis it would be a real asset. I can't speak for everyone, but I've always found it interesting when you get a chance to "relive history with the people who made it" so to speak. If you check your ego at the door -- you just might learn something, LOL.

Why not get a jock agent? There's a side of the business that very few people truly get, understand and realize how that plays into the game. It can help from a handicapping perspective as well.

Hey it's not my show. He can have on jocks for every segment for all I care. I just cant stand their midget voices. It's unbearable to listen to.
