radio dudes

The people you didn't know (italics is for you) were probably early wdfn guys that you may have missed while in the armed forces.
Ike Griffin was their first evening host - after Stoney and Parker. A big MSU shrill. Damon Perry was a big deal guy they hired away from somewhere else to take over for Mega. He was horrible and didn't stay long.
Keith Gave was their first morning host - he was the hockey writer forthe freep. He was pretty good.
Chuck Swerski came to WJR with a big Chicago sports reputation. The Detroit crowd never seemed to take to him. DFN used to have great ads against him and his "I love Chicago"..
Henson had a favorable draw. I was sad to lose Baligian in the 2nd round. And Wojo vs. Fithian could have been a final match.
