So proud that this is finally a reality. This is my story on how you can get the print version and audio version of Jesus now before the big release. And thanks to the amazing @McClain_on_NFL for his foreword in the print version: freddysworldblog.blogspot.com/2019/01/after-…

Quick XFL thoughts: 1) Better football than I thought. CFL level. Enjoyed it. 2) PJ Walker is poor man's Deshaun Watson. 3) LOVED the transparency on replays and access to coaches. Broadcast was first class. 4) Awesome to see the old school run and shoot. 5) I am 1-0 on wagers!

Never thought I would live long enough to see UH back in the Final Four. I can die happy now.

Not gonna lie...once work was done, got emotional. Been working sports in this city since I was 16. Thrilled for the players and fans.

OK, I know I am supposed to be not working, but felt the need to weigh in on my relationship with Bob McNair. Thanks in advance to those of you who choose to read it.
A look back at the Robert C. McNair I knew

R.I.P. to my grandmother, Lucille Monych. She stuck around until this morning, when she turned 99 years old. She lived an amazing life, had a hell of a run and made an amazing impact on her community doing charity and youth work. A life worth celebrating.

Finally busted out in 132nd place. Milked the short stack as long as I could. Thanks for all the love and support. Gonna go drink now and will probably go Twitter dark for a while. It was a blast and I will be playing more big tournaments.

My 98 year old grandmother had a terminal aneurysm last night. Saying goodbye over the phone was heartbreaking. Dedicated her life to charity and giving kids a chance. Best person I’ve ever known. Knew it was coming but still devastated

Had a cool moment last night. Was up to 750k. Took a sick beat when dude hit runner runner flush. Down to 50k. A guy at the table pulled me aside and told me to keep doing what I was doing and he would bet on me to win the whole thing. Got back to 260. Sometimes people don’t suck

For the three of you asking when I am returning to radio, the answer is very soon. Stay tuned. Will have an announcement in a week or so.

You are always disappointed when you bust out, especially when you feel like your play deserved better results. But 132nd out of almost 6000 players in my first points tourney in 12 years doesn’t suck. Met a lot of great people and upon post bust out reflection I am really happy

Wife: I want to buy an RV. Me: ok, let’s go look at a few and decide later. Fast forward 30 minutes and this. Guess we are road tripping next week and I have cemented my redneck status.
