Tough day for those in Atlanta

in WSB's Royal Marshall.

Side kick to Neal Boortz for 15 years, host of The Royal Treatment, husband, father of 2 little girls, and only 42 years old, collapsed in the early hours of Sat. morning and passed away. Reasons are as yet unknown.

Royal was the calm, but light hearted counter to Neal's bombastic personality. Neal would often turn to Royal as a fact checker, as they often joked that Royal would be all too eager to take Neal's place, should he get fired.

Then, though to far lesser significance, the Falcons get worked, by GB, in the dome.

Monday, it's expected to rain.

That figures.

Wow. I liked the banter he and Boortz had back when I listened to him. Sad stuff indeed.

Who is Neal Boortz?

To make matters worse, another WSB guy who was going to fill in for Royal ? Got a call from the police that his 24 yr old son was found dead in his apartment in Tennessee.

This also took place on Saturday.

It's good to hear Neal and Belinda on the air today. 1st day back like this is always the toughest, but they're doing a great job.
