    4 more shows worth listening to on WLW.....sorry Matt.

    The article mentioned XM wanting Gary to come aboard. That would be cool if he would do a weekly show or something like that for XM.

    That could happen...Bozo still does a show for XM even though he's technically retired.

    Has WLW found a replacement for him?
    All models are wrong. Some of them are useful.

    I'm calling my shot.....Andy Furman WILL be Gary Burbank's replacement...the return of the "one who's name can not be mentioned"--"the third stooge"..of course I will deny everything if it doesnt happen..

    Thats my guess too.

    Championships for MY teams in my lifetime:
    Cincinnati Reds - 75, 76, 90
    Chicago Blackhawks - 10, 13, 15
    University of Kentucky - 78, 96, 98, 12
    Chicago Bulls - 91, 92, 93, 96, 97, 98

    I'm sad to see Gary go. He's been a rush hour friend for longer than I'd like to remember.

    Funny guy, great characters, and I wish him well.

    Burbank was one of several Cincy broadcasters that made me want to get into broadcasting.

    When someone like Gary leaves, it's like losing an old friend.

    Here's to ya, old pal.
