Say what you want, but he was prepared and was an excellent interviewer. I will miss him, but even more I will miss Al. I hope when they give him his new spot, it's a two hour something show.

I think they said Al is gonna be doing a couple hours on Saturday and a flyers podcast.

I never really got why Angelo was so openly hostile about hockey when he had Al and Jonesy on his crew.

Yes, that's what Al will be doing. Podcasts and a show on a weekend day. That's when I want the something show.

I never got the impression Angelo was hostile about hockey. It just wasn't his favorite sport. There was also little discussion from the callers, especially in the last several years.

i waited on Al Morganti and Ken Hitchcock at the Applebee's in Voorhees around 2005. they were so cool, and so funny. just chirping at each other the whole time. lol

i waited on a lot of Philly sports figures at that Applebee's. worst one was Simon Gagne, bar-none. McNabb was the 2nd worst.

the absolute best Philly sports figure i served was Keith Jones, hands down. dude was so nice and down to earth, hilarious, and he tipped me 100%. Al and Hitch were a close 2nd.
