Kudos for a Soul Train reference. When I was a kid, the beginning of Soul Train meant that the line-up of classic Saturday morning cartoons had come to an end (Soul Train came on at noon in our area), so I always sort of looked at Don as bringing gloom to my TV. But yes, I agree that JT sounds like him.
The one thing I won't miss about Brian Mitchell is his consistency in complimenting himself (even through his very last show). I actually was listening to the show on Friday, and there was a discussion about Rafer Alston's slap to the head of the Celtics' Eddie House, and B-Mitch said, "You've got to keep that in check. I always did. Even though I was always one of the most intense and aggressive guys on the field, I knew where to draw the line."
C'mon. You can discuss the need for avoiding line-crossing without making sure to, yet again, plug how superior your approach to the game was. This I will not miss.
