Not only had I forgotten that the Rickwood Field game is on Thursday, but I hadn't noticed that the Giants were playing in the game, as a homage to Willie's time with Birmingham.
The Giants are really doing a fine job with this extended postgame show. (I had it on delay for over an hour, because I needed a pause.) Doing Willie proud.
