    You young guys probably don't even know who he is. But I'm from back in the day, and I would like to hear more of him. :pocketchange:

    He used to be the editor or something to that effect for the Weekley East Newspaper. A free paper you received on wednesday and sunday. They paid 1 cent per delivery, 1.5 cents if they had a flyer going with it. I had two routes one with 132 papers and the other I split with a friend and it was 188 papers. Big money back in the 70's for a kid. He does play by play for the Davidson Wildcat basketball now. He used to do the Dean Smith show.

    Was play-by-play voice the of the 49ers too in the 70s & early 80s.

    The audio tapes of Killer along with Jay Thomas providing color are some classics.

    Yep, I remember riding in the car with my Dad listening to the show. He did a sports talk show. I'm not sure it was supposed to be, but it seems it was mostly about the Tarheels.:rolleyes: Kilgo was a fiery host. My Dad would bust out laffing when somebody dared to disagree with Kilgo, which normally resulted in being called an idiot and then getting hung up on.:notworthy
