David Pollack joins The Zone

790 The Zone made a big announcement this morning about an addition to regular programming. I thought perhaps it was the big news of Fletcher Proctor being added to the Regular Sunday programming for NFL coverage, but it was in fact the news that former Georgia DE (and ex-Bengals LB) David Pollack would be joining the Afternoon Saloon on a regular basis.
The Zone recently let Hometeam Brandon Leak go and he is being replaced fulltime by Pollack. He will join Mike Bell and Chuck Da Kang Oliver M-F 4-7pm. On Saturdays he jets off to New York to work with CBS on the SEC postgame coverage. I am interested first of all to see if he sticks around assuming he has success with TV AND how he will fit in with The Saloon. We all know that DP leans a little more towards the religious side of things opposed to Bell and Oliver who sometimes can get a little dirty. Mike Bell is the wacky FM DJ stuck doing sports talk and while Pollack should be good through the end of football season, I wonder how he will do talking spring training and Hawks basketball?
He said this morning that he watches everything on TV, even pingpong if its on, but I just wonder. He did an OK job filling in with Mayhem, and don't get me wrong, I will like have the former Dawg at the station, I just wonder if he is going to like doing live remote broadcasts from bars or from The Cheetah. If he is going to like Mike Bell drinking right in front of him on the air. I hope it works out and I hope to be working with him at some point.

But back to me for a second. 790 has the general College Wrap up plus Pro lookahead show, then they have the Pro wrap up show, but DURING the Falcons games, we always had to go to satellite programming. NO LONGER. Every Sunday this season, THIS GUY will join IJ of Score Atlanta for the NFL Ticker. Every 10 minutes we will give you scores and updates on the games and in the meanwhile, we will be discussing the rest of the Pros, College and High school action from the weekend. Check it out this Sunday at 4pm!
