I agree completely with the comments for Austin Horton-I liked Austin. A few years ago Austin co-hosted an afternoon show with Tony Parks. It was a Good show and both host did well. I was sad to see Tony let go and I feel the same for Austin.

With regards to Gordon, my past comments are clear. I did not like or enjoy Gordon’s style of stirring up conversation. He was so quick to judge BYU harshly but went the extra mile to give Utah the benefit of the doubt. His reasoning and logic as to why BYU was bad and Utah was superior seemed to reflect a Monday morning quarterback who just listened to others and rarely went and did hard research and individual scouting of the teams for themselves.

I do wish him well and hope he lands on his feet but regarding his writing, he lost his way. Yes I do need to confess, I did read most of his articles regarding BYU and Utah football this year (that I could read for free anyway).

An interesting viewpoint: The more of Gordon’s columns I read the more I wondered if he even watched the games. His descriptions and analogies made little sense to me. And then I had a turning on a lightbulb moment. Gordon was not writing theses articles for me or the younger generation. He was writing and using analogies that might make more sense to people who still subscribe to the newspaper-which is ok and good for those who still pay for newspaper delivery. I’m glad Gordon still writes for a newspaper and provides the sporting news for those who don’t read their news online or by podcast.

As far as radio goes, the time has passed Gordon by. His cohost tried to tell him time after time don’t do the “Not Sporting News of the Day” but Gordon would never listen and neither did I. I would turn the station as soon as Gordon began. It was boring and useless information and maybe the beginning of the end for Good old Gordy.

Best wishes Gordon
