EP 01: Sal Capaccio Interview

This debut episode of the Moran-Alytics Podcast has Patrick Moran interviewing WGR-550 radio host and Buffalo Bills beat reporter Sal Capaccio (7:40). They discuss Sal’s upbringing in Buffalo and his obsession with sports from a young age, why he chose to go to Syracuse for college, his move to Florida in the mid-1990s, what led to his return to Buffalo and a work journey that went from WGR part time, on-air talent to ultimately one of the most respected NFL reporters in the business . They also discuss personal relationships among the media, why “tanking” can have several negative ramifications on a franchise and that magical New Year’s Eve when the Bills finally ended a 17-year playoff drought. Then longtime friend Tone Pucks (@tonepucks) joins to debut their “Pat With Pucks” segment (1:09:40), as the duo talk fantasy baseball euphoria, Buffalo Bills quarterback scenarios and have differing opinions on the TV drama “This is Us.” Lastly, the podcast winds down with weekly hardware for MVP (Chris Rock) and LVP (Fox News’ Laura Ingraham) as well as the first edition of Terrible Tweets. **IMPORTANT** Download, rate us five stars and most importantly subscribe to this podcast on Apple Podcasts/iTunes Follow Patrick Moran on Twitter @patmorantweets and “like” the Moran-Alytics Facebook page Learn more about your ad choices.
