Bill Michaels - Gone from WTMJ ?

[Patler]

The "Big Unit", Bill Michaels is apparently on his way out of town.

They just said on WTMJ radio that Michaels and management were not able to reach agreement on a new contract, and he is leaving. I don't think they were kidding.

They also said Trenni Kusnierek is coming back to do sports at WTMJ.

Looks like its for certain:

My thoughts exactly! Probably won't work twice, huh?

I have never got the nickname "The Big Unit." Maybe that's why I am ambivalent towards Bill Michaels and Randy Johnson.

Yeah, but when you pulled that stunt, I totally bought it! Glad to be a fool that day, I would miss the hell out of you as a poster here.

There is a reason why Randy is the "Big Unit"..... don't get it? PM me.. it's as obvious as the pimple on my face...of course I don't have pimples but that's a side bar...

I'm not sure I want to know. He said that his high school basketball coach gave him the nickname.....after a shower, maybe? LOL.

Maybe I am naive, but I thought the nickname originated from Randy Johnson being 6"10".
Bill Michaels, I believe is 6'7" or something like that.

That could be one explanation...
