I am bummed. This is the second time iI lost you from local radio sports show. Your connections to all things Notre Dame and Yankees were indubitally part of your demise , your delivery and Hoops insight won me over.
I was practicing calling everyone a pal in. Brooklyn Twang. Never change!! Do you hear me? Never change.

maybe we'll get a second team, like LA
We had quite a few interesting conversations as we pondered and navigated the nightly canopy.
V, thanks for your continued work here in New Orleans.
In Spring 2003, broadcasting from the old City Club location on St. Charles, I met you and learned from you about the USBWA's Full Court Press journalism seminar during the Final Four. An article later, competing against college journalism folks, I was awarded a $1,000 journalism scholarship as a high school sophomore. It boosted both my bank account and my confidence. Never really had the place to share this, so years later, thanks!
Good luck. Thanks a million for your years of insights and entertainment. I attended my first hornets game on tickets I won by calling your show on WTIX.
You are talented and will land somewhere big. We are all praying for you.

1-What does not move is dead.What has speed,and mobilty has more possibilities,more life...quickness creates luck.
2- Your Defense is only as good as your HELP/ROTATING defenders.
3-Games are won while the ball is in the air.
4- You design your roster to win a 7 game series not a one game confrontation.
We should meet up and have beers.
Cheers buddy!
Gerry, I've done a handful of satirical videos concerning the Hornets that have done really well...would you be interested in being on one of these videos sometime soon?

good lucky
Fox sports new home for the hornets
Man if only the Sports Hangover would have waited to fill the new co host position til now. V could have been that guy! Still I think WIST would be a good place for the V Man!
Just wanted to jump in and put my well wishes towards your future too man. Glad to see that you might be sticking around the forums though![]()
@DatPurpleHornet
Good luck V man. I really thought they would have used you in some form. Sucks, but hopefully you'll land somewhere soon other than nola.com :P. Lol. Good luck! Im sure ill see you around between the forums and twitter. We'll talk. Lol.
V,
Good luck. I'm going to miss you on the air on the drive home. Your show on 106.1 gave me a reason to switch from my XM Radio. Now, I guess it's back to XM because I cannot listen whatever that is broadcasting on WWL(it sure isn't sportstalk). Hope to hear you on the airwaves again soon!
V - hope you can stick someplace in NOLA, would hate to lose your insightful analysis.
