Post subject: | Sports & Torts interviews |
When I was a young boy I loved watching sports and dreamed of being able to talk to the star players I was watching playing and also the stars I had heard of who played before I was born. I loved to listen to Chet Chester W Coppock, Chuck Swirsky, and other sportscasters interview these players and hear the stories they shared of playing their sport. I thought I would love to be able to talk to these players and hear their stories. Well my dream has come true. Over the past 5 years Elliott Harris and I have interviewed 161 football, basketball, baseball, & hockey Hall of Famers. 101 of these are Pro Football Hall of Fame members. I feel like a kid in a candy store getting to talk to these guys. When I have gone to the Pro Football Hall of Fame the past two years and met these guys in person it was even more incredible. Numerous players have complimented Elliott and me for the interviews and the DVDs we provide them of the interviews. It allows them to share their stories wih their family and friends via a video scrap book. I'm living a dream and hope you enjoy listening to the interviews as much as Elliott and I enjoy conducting them. Here is the link to the interviews. https://www.youtube.com/user/sportsandtorts David Spada |

I have a few suggestions for interviews, if you haven't done them yet: Bobby Doerr - Red Sox 2nd Baseman Monte Irvin - Negro League star who played with the Cubs for a bit Sammy Lee - first two time Gold Medal winner in Diving at the Olympics Jake LaMotta - world champion boxer Ralph Kiner - Pirates hall of famer Red Schoendienst - Cardinals player and world series winning manager If you do interview these people, please give their children a call first a few days before so they'll have time to prepare. |

Hey David! Congratulations on achieving your dream of being a C-level asslicker. With a little more work maybe you can reach the level of a Johngy! Speaking as a guy who is actually friends with many celebrities I can understand how you think you feel. Remember that time I played the bongos with Matt McConaughey? Plus, I actually get to fuck supermodels instead of just elbowing Ellliot Harris out of the way to drool over them. ON YOUR LEFT!!!! |

When I was a young boy I loved watching sports and dreamed of being able to complain on the internet about the star players I was watching playing and also the stars I had heard of who played before I was born such as Zolio Versailles. But mostly I wanted to make fun of the people who covered sports on the radio and then later the internet. I listened to Chet Chester W Coppock, Chuck Swirsky, Chris Cross, and Sean Salisbury and other sportscasters interview these players and hear the stories they shared of playing their sport. I thought I would love to be able to talk to about these players on the internet and make fun of them with other cretins. Well my dream has come true. Over the past 5 years jimmypasta and I have quoted 161 Dragnet episodes. 101 of these were horribly misquoted. I feel like a kid in a candy store getting to make fun of the sports media landscape with a bunch of men on computers with no pants on. When I have gone to the CSFMB Bulls event a few years ago and met these guys in person it was even more terrifying than I could have imagined. Numerous posters have complimented Hank Scorpio and me for the insight and humor we provide this board on a daily basis. It allows some of the posters here a brief respite from the crushing boredom that is their daily work schedules and for that they are grateful to us. I'm living a dream and hope you enjoy reading my posts much more than I enjoy writing them. Here is the link to the interviews. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mV1LWhNpTJU Phillip J. McCracken esq. |
