Wonder who they will have to cover for Mike Gorman on occasion. Mike has missed calling some games for NBC Sports Boston especially during back to backs in different cities. Scal is the color analyst, I don't know how good he would be doing play by play.

I would love to hear a Scal and Perkins broadcast, if Mike needs some time off.Wasn't that the experiment that TNT was doing with Players Only? I think the results were pretty mixed on that.As I recall, the results ran the gamut from "horrible" to "unspeakable." Those broadcasts were (IMO) like trying to watch a game at a bar while two uninteresting people sat by the TV and laughed and shouted incessantly about uninteresting stuff they did together years ago. And one of them was always Greg Anthony.I like Scal and Perk, but I think they are better on a podcast or TV show separate from the live game, except perhaps in small doses with someone like Mike to bring focus back to the game now and then.Yep, I'd love us to have a former coach next to Mike (just like Tommy). A guy who can actually read the game on the fly and make in-depth comments.

Thank the lord. Draper was miserable.

Another asset gone without anything coming back in return. Word on the street is Brad was too nice to him in off-the-record interviews. We need a serious front office and coaching shakeup before Tatum leaves next.
