SUNDAY NIGHT BASEBALL CLOBBERS NFL FOOTBALL<\/strong>\u00a0It appears that NFL players and their National Anthem protests take a toll of their ratings. Sunday\u2019s Game 5 of the World Series in Houston, TX KOs the NFL game between Pittsburgh Steelers and the Detroit Lions. The Astros\u2019 13-12 win takes the #1 spot for primetime over NBC\u2019s typically dominant Sunday Night Football. If NFL game viewership drops, that means fewer viewers of NFL players who violate their national heritage.<\/p>\n

WHEELER DEALERS LOSES CHINA<\/strong>\u00a0One of our favorite reality TV shows, Velocity\u2019s\u00a0Wheeler Dealers<\/em>, where car enthusiast Mike Brewer searches out sometimes Classic cars at reduced prices brings them to their auto repair shop. Auto restore expert Edd China brings the old cars back to new life in record time. Edd has an uncanny ability to diagnose and repair just about any car\u2019s mechanical problems. We receive word that Edd China exits\u00a0Wheeler Dealer<\/em>\u00a0after 13 years because Velocity chooses to reduce Edd\u2019s time on the air. This is a drastic mistake!<\/p>\n

JACK PARNELL [ex WHBQ PD\/DJ] (Memphis, TN)<\/strong>\u00a0Subject: Fats Domino. I\u2019m very saddened by Fats Domino\u2019s death, but 89 is the ending of a great life. In 1954, I had just taken my girlfriend, now my wife Shirley, home from a date, and was driving home, listening to WLAC in Nashville, when Gene Nobles, the great late night show host, began playing a song that knocked my ears off\u2026that song was \u201cRosa Lee, Come Back To Me\u201d, and I immediately became a great Fats Domino fan. I loved everything he ever did\u2026.even \u201cWalkin\u2019 To New Orleans\u201d, which was written by Bobby Guidry, who was a friend of mine during the years that he came thru Memphis and visited WHBQ, promoting his recordings and writings. When Shirley and I had moved to Memphis, and I worked at WHBQ, Fats was recording many more million sellers, and I told Shirley: \u201cI don\u2019t know if you like Fats Domino, but if he ever comes to Memphis to do a show, I\u2019ll definitely go see him\u201d. He did, I went, and so did Shirley. Now, rest in peace Antoine \u201cFats\u201d Domino\u2026I\u2019ve got all your music and listen often.

MIKE MARSHALL [former DJ on KNOK-970, KBOX-1480, KFJZ-1270, AFN-BERLIN, WFAA-820\/570, KPRC-950, KXYZ-1320, KULF-790, KQUE FM, KBME-790] (Houston, TX)<\/strong>\u00a0Subject: WFAA. Jim, Tony Lawrence also mentioned the studios. The three control rooms were, except for the size of the room, identical. Each had the red button, which meant any one could connect to either the 570 or 820 transmitter. The engineers always wanted to do \u201cmaintenance\u201d when I was working on Saturday afternoons. As far as I could tell it consisted of squirting Windex on the face of the VU meters and it took about two hours, which meant I had to move everything, records, carts, copy book, the log from the main control room to the production room and back again what seems like every Saturday. No other station came close to this level of periodic maintenance. Also, I\u2019m still waiting to hear Tony\u2019s story how he got into American Forces Radio as a draftee. In my case it was incredible luck and considerable clout from my congressman, Rep. Jim Wright from Fort Worth.

TRIVIA ANSWER:<\/strong>\u00a0On October 22, 1939 the first televised pro football game goes on the air from Ebbets Field in Brooklyn, NY on NBC\u2019s flagship, W2XBS-770. Brooklyn beats Philadelphia 23-14. NBC later changes its experimental call letters W2XBS-770 to WRCA-770 and even later to WNBC-770.<\/p>\n

STANLEY TEATER [ex KTEM-1400] (Austin-Cedar Park, TX)<\/strong>\u00a0No I left radio in 1976 and went back into television. Over the years I worked at 8 different TV stations in 6 states. I retired from broadcasting in 2005 and I now work in the special education department at Leander High School in the Austin area. I live in Cedar Park. I don\u2019t remember a Butch Brady<\/em>.<\/p>\n
