Watch it again...

Sorry, Sean Penn...Z's acceptance speech was better.

Found a little website that lets you watch Out of the Blue in streaming format without commercial interruptions (and in its entirety). Watch this great little doc about our beloved Broncos again...or for the first time. Here's to a slow day at work tomorrow.

Out of the Blue

Jadon Dailey is gone-zo.

"Losing good commentators makes me a sad Panda..."

Looks like everyones favorite color commentator will not be back in the booth next year. Jadon Dailey has apparently parted ways with Peak and will be heading back to Arizona. Now, I heard rumblings about this a few days back, but didn't have the stones to post it as fact...but now Idaho Radio News has posted the story and I'm confident it is ringing true. IRN states:

Multiple sources (basically anyone I’ve asked) say he liked doing the play-by-play but was frustrated with the other parts of the gig - selling ad time for Peak.

This may be true, but someone very close to the program told me the other day that an illness in the family might be in play here as well. Either way, we'll certainly miss Jadon's wit and wisdom and wish him the best in the future.

Boy, I hope you like the sound of Jadon Dailey's voice...cuz he came in with some pretty epic analysis last night and showed why he's going places in the industry. We break down the Idaho game and the hammer "controversy", Byron Hout and his POTW hardware, and talk each other down over the Nevada game on Saturday.Make sure to listen towards the end when JT basically says that I suck.

Excellent...ex-Bronco tabbed as Peak color-man

Via OBNUG, KTVB, and Idaho Radio News—we have learned that Peak Broadcasting has hired former Bronco center and star of Out of the Blue Jadon Dailey as their broadcast color commentator. Dailey will provide insight and humor while Bob Behler gives the play-by-play. If anyone hasn't watched Out of the Blue...you will be pleasantly surprised by Dailey's on-air persona. He is well-spoken, engaging and pretty darn funny. At the Out of the Blue premier...we were told that even the ESPN honchos were enamored with Dailey...who will be doing his first on-air gig with Boise State. Dailey has been working at a radio station in Phoenix doing sales since graduating from Boise State. We're told that Dailey will also be doing some sales work at KIDO.

Those who are worried about this being Dailey's first on-air work...take heart—the color man is there to provide insight and observations that the average listener may not accustomed to. In short—do you think that he'll be any worse than Jeff Caves? Dailey's rise to starting center after basically quitting football and working as a bank teller in Arizona have been well chronicled...we find his story quite unique and are looking forward to hearing him dish some great one-liners while Behler calls the action.
