Sorry to hear he is leaving. I enjoyed his six month stint as co-host and I developed a healthy respect for his knowledge.
But life goes on, and Michael Shackleford is not chopped liver. On the contrary, the show can only remain equally interesting if not even better. We all know the Wizard is the MAN!
Good luck to all, and I hope the show continues beyond another six months. Whatever happens, it's been great so far! I haven't missed a minute of any show.
By the way, I still miss Frank.

Was his leaving announced on the show? Richard and Frank are both top notch, just in different ways. Shackelford should be quite good too. His website certainly is.

Hedonist queried: Was his leaving announced on the show? No it wasn't. It's been a "done deal" for a few weeks but we decided to hold off on talking about it until the column ran. Since the switch won't take place for another several weeks, there was no hurry to bring it up. This week, we'll be talking about it because Munchkin and Shackleford will both be there. Shack will be discussing betting props for the NFL playoffs. Bob

Same, Munchkin seemed pretty good from when I listened, but I was also excited to hear that the Wiz was signing on full time.
I too thought Frank was great and that both he and Munchkin brought different strengths to the show, will be interesting to hear how it shakes out with Wiz
