  • @SMITHFRANK He passed away.

  • Oh my God! I can't believe how funny this is!

  • Sounds different on Judge Judy

  • @ExZonie Darn, WFLD. WCFL was radio.

  • @devtrev Right - on WCFL when the White Sox were owned by Bill Veeck and then Reinsdorf/Einhorn - remember the softball-style uniforms? And Disco Demolition Night? Good times.

  • Berwyn???? ROFL!!!

  • @SMITHFRANK Last I saw he is the voice that announces the cases on Judge Judy! He's been in California for quite some time.

  • Does anybody where "Svengoolie" is today ?? ..(a.k.a.- Jerry G.Bishop )

  • I watched this every Friday night as a kid - great memories.
