FDH Lounge Show #77: October 14, 2009

By Rick Morris

We’ve got another absolutely amazing edition of THE FDH LOUNGE on SportsTalkNetwork.com (Wednesdays, 7-10 PM EDT) with Episode #77. Check out the first hour alone!

After The Opening Statements of The Dignitaries of The FDH Lounge and a look at This Week in The FDH Lounge, we lead off with famed WWF/AWA/NWA/WCW ring announcer Gary Michael Capetta, a man who has introduced a veritable Who’s Who in the industry. His book Bodyslams! Memoirs of a Wrestling Pitchman is a wonderful look at the business and we’ll talk about the changes he saw from the mid ‘70s to the mid ‘90s.

And then … we bring in one of our most famous guests ever, the one and only Tommy Lasorda! He’ll talk about the baseball playoffs in progress, especially the last round and next round involving his beloved LA Dodgers. It’s no surprise that Tommy would be progressive enough to come onto our Internet TV show; he’s knee-deep in the world of New Media himself! Check out Tommy’s Twitter account and Tommy Lasorda’s World MLBlog.

We won’t even wait to catch our breath in Hour Two as we head right into a Dignitary roundtable about the Rush Limbaugh/Al Sharpton/NFL ownership controversy and then another installment of The FDH Lounge Pigskin Report, focusing on both the college and pro games. From there, an early start to THE FANTASYDRAFTHELP.COM INSIDER gets underway with a look at our 2009-10 hoops mock draft – which sets us up nicely for the release this weekend of our FANTASY HOOPS DRAFTOLOGY 2009 guide. We then break down NFL Week 6 and we then bring on KFFL Senior Editor Cory J. Bonini for his thoughts on the fantasy football landscape.

Our final half hour as always is taken up by THE GOON SQUAD as we examine the NHL standings, panic in Toronto over an unthinkably slow start and more panic in Chicago as there are mass freak-outs ensuing at the thought that Cristobal Huet could keep the team out of the Finals.

It’s going to be a great program and we hope you can be a part of our audience. As always, we urge you to watch the show live (or listen if you’re on dial-up), but if you can’t catch this as it’s happening, you can always catch the FDH archives 24-7 right here or catch us now on iTunes!
