Lightning beats 730 Fox Sports

Lightning destroyed the station.  Just crushed it.  The station is being rebuilt and I am told will be back up and running tomorrow (Saturday).  I sincerely appreciate the messages from those of you that have missed the show.  The only silver lining in all of this is that we get all new equipment.  Other than that, this has been torture.

Our trip to the National Sports Collectors Convention (Chicago) *w/ Videos
