Alan was a very down to earth, thoughtful and intelligent guy who could talk about much more than sports. It was shocking to hear that he died so suddenly and some years later, my heart goes out to his wife and young children.

The Sox front office was pissed at Will over siding with Joey O'Donnell in the bidding war and they never forgave him. The moment Sean's contract was over the let him go. Ask anyone close to the situation willing to talk-- the two are directly linked. McDonough’s passing led the way to the Sox firing Sean McDonough.

I flip back to D&C for a while and then over to WBZ and Gil Santos is talking about it. I flip back to 1510 and Adams is still talking about himself and selling cars. This went on for about a good 40 minutes as I flipped back and forth until Adams finally mentioned it. Such a glaring mistake where Will was so closely identified with 1510 at the time where he had his own show in addition to being a regular guest on Sean McDonough's afternoon show. Amazing that Adams still has a job in radio.
