No More Pining For Phil Wood

Any hopes of having Phil Wood involved in the Nats broadcasts have decreased. DCRTV Sez:

Phil Wood To XM, Examiner - 2/1 - DCRTV hears that Phil Wood has nabbed a fulltime gig with DC's XM Satellite Radio for its new baseball channel that goes live 2/15. Plus, Wood has been hired by the new Washington Examiner as a baseball columnist. He'll do a weekly write-up that largely covers the Nationals for the free daily. Sports talker Wood, who used to work for WTEM a few years back, plans to continue doing his Saturday show on WJFK-AM in Baltimore.

I listened to him a few times and didn't understand the lovefest for him. Yeah, he has an encylopedic knowledge of Washington Baseball, but I don't get particularly weepy-eyed about the crappy Senators teams of the '60s. And no one ever wants to discuss Goose Goslin, Firpo Marberry or Bucky Harris.
