Last year little time was given to Piggy,s story of rising through the Chicago ranks to elite status,with soft spoken recepients the crowd needs the hosts to fill in the story and accomplishments.Last years crop had some challenges(Parica-foriegn,Piggy-shy,Fats-deceased) with the podium, but with you and Grady filling in the missing elements the night should always be memerable. Looking forward to 2011's HOF dinner, thanks. P.S. no slight to Harry Platis,he was great!

Plus anybody who still might feel it necessary to challenge my infamous "beat list" should take this time to come to DCC and take their case up with the aforementioned players. There will be plenty of them there that are still alive. The challengers will have to present any naysayers to my face to achieve full confirmation. I am looking forward to the Tony Fargo confirmation, for my side that is.
