    Sounds like the health issue that caused the postponement of the M&G (scrotal lymphedema) is severe enough that he's taking at least a couple weeks off to deal with it. Scott Lynn will be filling in for him in his absence.

    Get well soon Wheels!!

    Yeah, he's said that he's no longer mentally or verbally agile enough to be able to keep up with calling an NBA game.

    At this point I would rather listen to Mike Rice farting into the microphone instead of watching Hurd and Calabro.
