I wasn't aware the old 5-tool, 12-stepper was on XM.

Re: anyone been listening to Bowden on XM?
I don't have XM, but I always thought he was a great at talking baseball as a media guy. Remember when he was GM, and at Redsfest he'd let random people from the crowd suggest trades and then comment on them? Even if he was just giving BS reasons for/against, it was an interesting feature that no other GM would dare to do.

Yes, he's got a good line of bull- just like Steve Phillips.
Now that I think about it, I can see old Leatherpants replacing Phillips on ESPN. Jimmie would love the smorgasbord there... |

Re: anyone been listening to Bowden on XM?
I listened to JimBo on XM several times recently. He sounds like he's been doing it for years. He sounds very good, very knowledgeable. I agreed with everything he said. lol
IMO, he might be a slimeball, but he's got a future in broadcasting. |
