Quick Note for NWA Readers

Posted by Brett Kincaid on August 16, 2009

I will join Jon Williams tomorrow morning on 93.3 The Eagle.  You can link to the show from our webiste (look to your left) and listen live if you are not in northwest Arkansas.  Jon and I will be talking Razorback football, Tiger’s meltdown, and something non-sports related I’m sure.  Or not.  Who knows…it’s going to be a Monday morning.
