Yep. It was the ditka show at 11am. NFL today at 11.30

Loved that. He did that line for the gamblers so they could know the weather. He's admitted that. This is pre internet. He wanted the gamblers to know it wasn't taped footage when he would go to a game in the pregame show.

rip...too bad.

was part of a great pre-game show. i always believed that brent and irv; despite irv's eagles connections - were secret bears fans. phyllis and jane with the beauty, jimmy the greek with the nonsensical intangibles.

by ditka time, everyone only cared what john madden had to say.

I'm really surprised he is only 81. He was a big part of the best pre game show ever. Great information. Entertaining and informative without being the chuckle fest these pre games have become.

Producers should take a look back to see how they can provide a better product
