Awesome!

Digital is there any way you can record it? I have Direct TV, so I don't get channel 8 :(

I probably couldn't post it without Channel 8's consent. I'll try to record it on disc though.

Linda "Great Shot" Siadys said...

Understand. So cool though!

Bobby Magruder would be able to answer any questions.Bobby if you read this blog please shed some light on the matter.

whoever "raymond wells" is get your facts straight.I was 98 wins and 13 loses as an amatuer boxer. Only stopped one time in the amatuers. As a pro I was only (ko.d)one time.13 wins -6 loses and 1 disqualification as a pro.Next time some clown writes about me,make sure they are really who say they are or who has followed my career.Because anyone that knows about boxing would know I was one of the best to come out of the maryland and DC area.Don't hate the player hate the game.signing off the gifted one Dale Staley. And that name is for real.

I do know my cousin Mike Picciotti kicked your ass and emabarresed you easily on natonal tv. If you were one of the best to come out of the area, that's not saying much for the area. Ray Leonard would be rolling over in his grave if he were dead.

Calling Dale Staley one of the "best" to come out of Md. DC area may be a little hard to justify when making comparisons with Ray Leonard, but he was one hell of a fighter in his day and one tough S.O.B.

Folks... anyone selling Dale short doesn't know what in the hell they are talking about. I fought at the same time and watched Dale fight many times. He was a very good fighter with a solid record. Saw him pummel Darryl Smith in a near race riot at the Novak Field House at PGCC. Also saw him fight Ray Leonard - no sugar back then, just a cocky showboat. Dale hung with the best of them. I fought for Lanham. One night at Hillcrest Heights, and Dale might remember this... I got into a fist fight with a punk upstairs while Dale was warming up for a fight... he had to break it up. Still remember it well. I'm guessing this was 1975.
