I liked the remark about his foot and the bag being in different area codes

*edit* I've got both of Luchiano's books floating around here somewhere, Bill. Enjoyed them a lot.

Luciano was very flamboyant with his calls. If you ever saw the Naked Gun movie, where Leslie Nielsen is under cover as an umpire, he was mimicking Luciano's style. When he called a play, no one would mistake what he called.

Anyone have any idea what an 8RT long block goes for now days? This one was running 2 years ago when pulled. No pics or any other info yet. They're asking $500 plus shipping.
