John Byrd

So much of 'is it a good sign?, is it a bad sign?' depends on personal taste.

Rebecca Lobo

Sometimes I make some money doin' comedy. I made $3000 opening for the Neville Brothers, and they paid me in cash, so I had $3000 in my front pocket.

Then my friend stepped on a worm, I said, 'Lay down.' Snake bite emergency repair kit... is a body bag.

If we win our division, we're going to Jacksonville in December to play for a BCS bowl.

On the air, it's as if somebody draws a heavy drape to block any bias. I don't even feel it inside. It's the same curtain that keeps you from swearing.

But in the haze of infatuation, it’s just what you’ve been searching for all these years.
