re: Why is Kevin Ford still part of the radio broadcast?

How did this thread get bumped?

I just don't see why they need him to be part of the radio broadcast from back home in the studio. All he says are stats every once in a while and Jim interrupts him every time because Jim doesn't know he's talking.

I really like the Jim/Ricky Blanton combination.. even if Ricky does dumb it down a little too much for the average fan. But Ricky is a teacher and loves doing that so he brings it to the broadcast. It's not a big deal.
