My brother-in-law was getting laser surgery done at an eye clinic that Eli Zaret promotes and may have an interest in. Awaiting the receptionists return he sees a guy and his wife also waiting and realizes its Denny McLain. This is about 2 months ago.
So he says "are you Denny McLain?" and when he hears yes he starts a convesation in which McLain tells him that he and Eli are putting a package together for local media. For those lost at this point and somewhat interested McLain and Zaret were kind of a Skipper/Gilligan team (played them once in a skit) on sports and hugely entertaining.
Zaret I miss very much with or without McLain and would look very much forward to this. McLain can be very entertaining, just count your fingers if you shake hands with him. Still one-of-a-kind character, a real throwback type.
BTW, McLain also trashed Alan Trammell pretty good saying he cost Tigers at least 10 games last year and says that despite all the hype on the Tigers this year their starting pitching is taking them nowheres.
