I Am So Proud Of The Kid

Brian Collins started off with a rough showing. The above clip was from a student-run television newscast in his college days. His "Boom Goes the Dynamite," might possibly be the best catch phrase in all of the sports world. ESPN is jealous that one of their anchors didn't come up with it. Although, I hear Chris Berman is looking to use it in this year's NFL coverage.

Anyway, Collins is all growns up now. He's growns up, and he's growns up, and he's growns up...

He and his dynamite got a gig with KXXV-TV News Channel in the Texas area and "encourages residents to contact him about any story ideas."

Seriously though, good for him. I get offered 10 bucks an hour, get pissed off, and curse myself to sleep for studying journalism at school. Time to drink some beer and take it out on some A's fans.
