The Morning Tailgate
Friends, if you’re at the office reading, we thank you for sticking with us this holiday week. If you’re at home reading, then may I ask, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU? Start your celebration early! We’ll be taking tomorrow off to celebrate Lady Liberty’s birthday, but will be back in full force Monday morning. In the meantime, you can catch your’s truly at 10:20 AM on the 360 Sports Buffet on Team 1380. From here on out, we’ll be looking to meet with Jay and the gang at that time on Tuesdays every week unless situations dictate otherwise. If you’re driving around or sitting at home reading, give it a listen. But yea, you should really start your celebration now if you’re not working. We won’t hold it against you this time.
