Front Page article on WEEI coming to Maine

The person quoted at the start of the article has a point about the screaming, but he
apparently didn't know that Butch from the Cape went up to Yankee Heaven several
years ago (in fact, he was spared the misery of watching the Red Sox win their
first World Series since 1918 and the Patriots win their first Super Bowl
ever). One regular caller to WEEI's Big Show, though, does imitations of
"Butch" as "Butchie from beyond the grave" (much as Imus had one of
his helpers imitate the late Richard Nixon)

The famous Bob Lobel quote at the time: "Butch had said maybe he
had Red Sox cancer--the type everybody can beat. Sadly he actually
had Yankee cancer--the type nobody can beat." (IIRC...again,
this was before the historic '04 season)

Thanks for the link!
