Seemed pretty adamant about being on the radio side. The guy is head over heels in love with Ernie Harwell.

A great radio guy to be in love with, but I fear that era of baseball on the radio is long gone. We, as Sox fans, can hope Len is that good for that long, it would be good for us.

"Swing, and a pop-up, foul behind first base, caught out there by a fan from Evergreen Park!!"

I hear his first real passion is announcing the game at a local athletic club to members as the play by play comes in by teletype.

All of the disinformation surrounding this story seems to fly in the face of what even a casual observer knows of the industry. Yet, all the sports talkers are repeating it as truth without skepticism.
