All talk.

How many times have we said that about our politicians at all levels of public service? It’s just the way far too many of them are. Or what they’ve been programmed to be.

Then there’s Weston Wamp. Twice a pin-thin loser to Chuck Fleischmann in the Republican primary for the Third District U.S. Congressional seat that Weston’s father, Zach, admirably held for 16 years, young Wamp recently discovered a different way to put his mouth where the money is – he joined the sports talk radio crowd.

Sort of.

Every Saturday morning from 10 to noon on ESPN Radio (105.1 FM), Wamp attempts to entertain and inform his listeners about both sports and politics on his show, “The Pitch.” On those few occasions he has added religion to the mix since first coming on the air in early June, Wamp managed to tap into every Southern male’s unholy trinity of discussion/argument points.
