20 years ago today Buddy Diliberto passed away

While Buddy didn't present himself as the most polished speaker, he was a very good and well informed writer. Part of Buddy's allure was that he came across as a regular guy. When Buddy died I turned down the sound and see no reason to turn it back up. While I haven't completely ignored Bobby and the rest of the current crew, I find no reason to listen to them religiously, like I listened to Buddy. I've maybe listened to WWL sports talk a dozen times since Buddy's death. He was one of a kind. When he misprounced someone's name, I loved it, when Bobby does it, I cringe. They aren't comparable.
