For all you folks too young to remember him, here is my feeble attempt.
When them gators leave their swamp and jump in the St. Johns heading north to that cocktail party they are gonna crawl into that big bowl that used to be named for them thinking they are up to the Trask. But, them lizards gonna find out it ain't a swamp, it's a Dawg pound. And, this dawg's bite is worse than it's bark.
Leonard's loser..... Florida.
When Coach Conklin loads his bus with his bow wows, he's gonna need some help to convince those puppies to take the trip. It ain't gonna be a petting zoo they are going to. It's gonna be a valley filled with death. Ever'body knows a Terrier ain't no match for a Tiger.
Leonard's loser......Wofford

Back when something called radio was the best source of info, when Leonard said the Pickens County Pride was gonna pluck the feathers from some barnyard fowl, you put that in the bank!

TU to you, bret.
It’s been a while since I last heard ol’ Leonard Post Toasties on the radio - can’t remember if it was WESC, WHYZ, or WQOK in Greenville back in the 60s/70s - but what I recall of him doling out his ‘little smart pills’, you’ve done a fine imitation, here.

Used to really enjoy him during 70’s at CU. One of my favorites was about UGA. They had some fumbling problems the week before and Leonard described it this way. The Red Clay hounds are running that “Vomit Offense - throwing up pigskins everywhere.”

It was me who mentioned old leonard a few weeks ago. Somebody had posted a question about an early 80s radio show that predicted scores.
