It's a Bob Golic Triple Play!

STILL LIVE FROM THE UPPER MIDWEST -- We're not sure if the title on this one is a baseball joke about a former football player, or a radio joke, but regardless... we have one more item about WNIR afternoon host and Browns TV voice Bob Golic.

As reported below, Golic moves to the analyst's chair for the WOIO/19 broadcast of today's Browns/Detroit Lions game, which is at 1 PM this afternoon. Even WNIR boss Kaiser Bill hasn't figured out how to have Bob do his regular Saturday noon-4 PM show at the same time as he does color commentary on a televised football game, so someone's gotta fill in for Bob on 100.1 today.

WNIR morning host Stan Piatt says that there will indeed be a Golic on the air on WNIR this Saturday afternoon...and no, it's not Bob's brother, ESPN Radio morning co-host Mike Golic ("Mike and Mike"). It'll be Mrs. Bob Golic on the air in her husband's slot from noon until 4 PM. We're not really familiar with Mrs. Golic's on-air history, though there's a decent chance she has some experience in Los Angeles...where her husband did sports radio and TV for many years.

It'll be interesting, at any rate...
