Boy George is back in the news. No, it’s not for having the worlds finest “head” tattoos, it’s because the British 1980s pop star failed a High Court bid to overturn a probation order preventing him from taking part in the reality television show “Celebrity Big Brother“.
Britain loves him, just about as much as American seems to these days…
Read WHY here….
Last week was a very exciting week, because I was promoted to the Program Director position for 92.9 FM ESPN (680 AM). My passion for sports makes this a very exciting opportunity for me personally. The even better news is I continue to work here at the radio ranch as the midday personality on Classic Hits 94.1 KQK (this will just be a behind the scenes gig!).
So if you’re hungry for sports, please flip on the new #1 Sports Station in the Mid-South, and the ONLY FM SPORTS FREQUENCY @ 92.9 FM ESPN, or approx. 75 miles around the area on 680 AM. You can also check us out at www.espn929fm.com.
Thanks for supporting my family by listening to Classic Hits 94.1 KQK and 92.9 FM ESPN. I feel blessed to work here considering my passion for music AND sports.
Sincerely,
-Brad

This year, my Top 5 holiday memories (which is much like last year) include:
#5: Putting up the Xmas Tree with my family!
#4. Driving with the family to see Xmas Lights while eating McDonald’s Drive-thru in the car. You have to go see the Cockrall/Stewart Family lights in the Davies Plantation area… amazing!
#3. Watching the Arlington Xmas parade at our friends “The Barkers”…
#2. Riding the Carousel with my son, Jake, and doing all the Christmas activities at Wolfchase Galleria.
#1. Going to SY Wilson in Arlington to visit Santa with the family! I love the old time general store type feel, as well as the “Claus” family that is there.
Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar announced Friday that they welcomed their 19th child and their 9th daughter to the world. Wow!

Good news for the family and fans of my idol, the late Jack Buck… They are naming a highway after him in St. Louis! My favorite Buck calls:
“Go Crazy Folks, Go Crazy!”
&
“I don’t believe what I just saw.”
He’s also respsonsible for the broadcast motto that if you hang around (a city) long enough, they HAVE TO like you… One can only hope!
Late, legendary ST. LOUIS CARDINALS HALL OF FAME radio voice JACK BUCK will be honored with a portion of I-64 running through ST. LOUIS being renamed the JACK BUCK HIGHWAY. A ceremony renaming the road took place SUNDAY, and the road is being reopened TODAY (12/7).
BUCK, who passed away in 2002, called CARDINALS games on CBS RADIO Talk KMOX-A/ST. LOUIS for several years and also worked on network TV calling baseball and football; his son JOE BUCK is FOX SPORTS‘ lead baseball and football play-by-play broadcaster.
We had a great time watching the Grizz beat the Dallas Mavericks, and my wife and I went with our friends Mike and Cindy Ogden… My wife took this pic of Mike and I….oh, and the Grizz girls!
