Always fun to cover Lamar Jackson in person, especially when he’s playing like an MVP.

Fun couple days of primetime games…

2 highlights from last night… interviewed for the first time in a while, he says “you’re more tan than I am”😂 beach volleyball, Jimmy

Also got to see one of my ol Syracuse pals who’s now the voice of the raiders

Played hard today🏐… then laid down to stretch and found this when I got up.

Worked for almost 11 years now & yesterday was a fun first for me…

Analysis for MNF on Ch.5 in UK

3 shows, 3 roles, 3 platforms

I think I’ve seen the best 2 teams in the NFL the past couple weeks, 49ers last week & then today the suffocated the Aaron Rodgers less , led by another dominating Micah parsons performance. Dallas has outscored its opponents 70-10 so far in the season. Always fun when the cheerleaders are rehearsing in our live shots, today they were literally right behind me at times😂

Thought it’d be a closer game, but & the were on a mission today. SF steamrolled out of Pittsburgh with the 30-7 win. Fun day to start the season - met the Steelers mascot, Steely McBeam, & ran into Tom Izzo, one of my favorite coaches from when I used to cover college hoops. He’s also old pals with Steve Mariucci, who I happened to work with today. Small world!

Kicking off the ‘23 season where last year’s ended - little different stakes (Super Bowl vs preseason opener😂)- but thrilled🏈has returned🙌🏽

A throwback pic that popped up on my phone a couple times recently, cracks me up…

Fun first visit to Rocky Top… can’t wait to see a game there at Neyland Stadium. Was a pleasure to meet these prospects, who could be hearing their names called during the 1st round of the NFL draft. Officially done with - until next year!

We were in Chicago together 21 years ago for the Aztecs 1st NCAA tournament appearance in the Steve Fisher era - now here we are in Louisville, with a spot in the Final 4 on the line - let’s goooooooo!!!

Not a bad setting for a lil afternoon softball⚾️

Always enjoy getting to meet the next wave of NFL stars at their respective pro days… this year’s schedule featured UCLA & Utah. First time covering the Utes’ pro day, impressive campus & facilities. All 4 players I interviewed had great college careers & I’m excited to see what they do at the next level.

week fun. Enjoyed covering the , but congrats to the . Sayonara 2022 🏈Season

Had to😉… the 49ers shirt that appeared on the Rocky statue earlier in the week has long been replaced by an Eagles shirt… Last time I was here for a playoff game, a team from the west coast received a historic performance from a rookie and won at the Linc… all these 49ers fans hoping Brock Purdy & crew can do what DK Metcalf & the Seahawks did 3 years ago… should be a great one…

I guess we’re these people now🤷🏻‍♂️😂 Happy New Year!!

Christmas has been extended, at the happiest place on earth!

Encanto live!
