Many thanks for all the birthday wishes. It’s been a tough year but I made it to the other side of surgery. A new back and pretty much a new chance at life. That is all one can ask for.

Second was I want to get back to work again. Well, I am walking a couple of miles a day and doing a lot of PT. And…I’m going back to work tomorrow doing two UFL games on Fox starting at 1pm Eastern. I’ve made it and will be back this fall doing college and NFL games.

About 6 months ago, I posted that I was going to take a year off at Fox due to back surgery. Five months ago I had my back fused on 7 levels, T11 to S1. 8 1/2 hours of surgery! In recovery, they asked me what my goals were. I gave them two. First was to be able to walk again….

In Pittsburgh, offside on the offensive guard? Officials are told to call that if a lineman has his head in the neutral zone on the short yardage push plays, not on field goal attempts.

Sitting at home as a fan watching the Rams and Colts. That’s the only game I get here in Sacramento. This afternoon I get the Cardinals at Niners and Chargers at Raiders. Tonight I’ll watch the Chiefs and the Jets. I miss being in the studio and watching all the games.

Oh, you Notre Dame fans. So close on the field-goal, but over the top of the upright is no good. It must be between the uprights.

Well, since I not working ready to getting my back fixed, I am at home watching games. I am now going to flip between ND/Duke, Iowa State/Oklahoma, and Michigan State/Iowa. Miss being in the studio.

Great catch for a TD by Michigan. Great job by the official who took his time to make sure the receiver maintained control after hitting the ground.

Well, the season is starting and for me, I am on IR. Bad back and soon to come surgery keeps me from traveling and keeps me home. You are blessed not to see me on the tube for the possibly the season. I will be able to answer your questions during the week that you might have.

My magic box. Push the red button and I go on air. The middle four are people I’m in direct communication with. Forget the one on the right. It’s for emergency use only. Who are the middle four people?
