    Dan Hoard is leaving us....

    WXIX's Dan Hoard heading to Boston for a baseball job

    BY JOHN FAY | ENQUIRER STAFF WRITER

    Channel 19 sports director Dan Hoard's biography on the station's Web site makes it clear what he wants to do with his life:
    "My ultimate ambition is to broadcast major-league baseball ... "
    Hoard is leaving WXIX to get closer to that dream. Hoard will take over as the play-by-play man for the Triple-A Pawtucket Red Sox. The move will allow him to live in Boston, where Hoard's wife, Peg, lives. The couple is expecting their first child.

    "It was time to move on," Hoard said.
    Hoard, who joined Channel 19 in November 1995, is one of the city's busiest sports broadcasters.
    In addition to his duties with WXIX, Hoard is the radio play-by-play man for University of Cincinnati football and basketball games. He also is co-host of the "Real Reds" pregame show on Fox Sports Net.
    Hoard said there's a possibility he will continue with his UC radio duties.
    "I've talked to (UC assistant athletic director) Brian Teter about it," Hoard said.
    Hoard added that WLW-AM (700), which broadcasts UC games, "is open to the idea."
    Hoard was a finalist to replace Joe Nuxhall on the Reds' radio broadcasts. He also did Syracuse Chiefs Triple-A games.

    I thought of you when I heard that story, Fisher, lol.

    He is a very classy guy who is usually pretty knowledgeable and has a GREAT announcing voice. If you get to talk to him there tell him we all appreciate what he's done for the last 11 years here in Cincy.

    There have been some nice UC memories with him behind the mic. and even a few nice ones for the Reds.

    I hope he does manage to keep announcing UC games.

    Good luck, Dan and I'm glad you get to pursue your dream.

    straying off topic
    ill take anyone over john sterling
    i wanted to kill myself back when it was john sterling and michael kay
    i think suzyn wald-man and sterling may be worse considering wald-man is actually a red sox fan. Hmm...could that be why she sucks so much? She wants Yankee fans to stop paying attention? Either way we need some new people...

    One of these posts is not like the others.

    One of these things just doesn't fit in.

    We don't want Suzan either. You got her when you won the 2003 ALCS, her and Connecticut were part of the deal

    If we go to a game as a group or something this year(finally), I'm going to have to beat you up, Geko.
