So the run is over. I went 45 days without wearing the same time on the air twice. When I started doing a daily #tietweet on twitter just for fun, a former co-worker told me I couldn’t post repeats. I took that as a challenge and decided 45 days would be the magic number. I’d like […]

iPhone Resurrected
February 24, 2010 by
Anyone who followed my journey to the Super Bowl in Miami knows my beloved iPhone drowned in a hotel pond. Almost instantly, I hopped the railing separating my table from the pond and, with the help of a WDSU news photographer sitting next to me, scooped the phone from the depths of the pond. But […]

12 and Eaux: Believe It
December 7, 2009 by
Never before have I watched a Saints game like that one. Never before have I experienced so many “I don’t believe it” moments. Never before have I seen the Saints get so many great breaks in one game. A still-perfect record of 12-0 is a very nice Monday morning realization. One that a lot of people began […]

Billboard Snafu Leads to Suspensions
November 25, 2009 by
WPMI-TV in Mobile, the station where I worked from 2000-2007, has been in the news lately for all the wrong reasons. The news director and general manager were suspended for a week without pay after this picture began making the rounds on the internet. Mistake to learn from? Yes. Week-long suspensions for the ND and […]

Watch What You Tweet
September 22, 2009 by
Washington Redskins rookie Robert Henson, via his Twitter account, went off on disgruntled fans after Sunday’s win over the Rams. Redskins’ fans were booing the team for their lackluster performance, so he called them “dim wits” and said they didn’t know anything about football because they “worked 9 to 5 at McDonald’s.” The Redskins haven’t […]
