As you know though lightning round can be full of surprises. We want you know -- and be pleasantly surprised by another product. It's the southwest chicken flat bread sandwiched Duncan's been surprising as the new products all yearlong. And they're as good as you'd expect. So try these new southwest chicken flat breads. Made -- grilled chicken cheddar cheese real red and green -- And maple should.

Portly sauce. I deserve you know. On an oven toasted flat but it's great for lunch. Or an afternoon snack. Not have been so why endorsed its use is this -- ambush the lightning round here's my problem. I have great respect for dale and -- integrity of this program what they've established all the years here. As I do have great respect for Michael -- who who's got himself an endorsement deal out of the lightning round but the hypocrisy.

Driving around in this town and listening to Michael -- claim. That this is the lightening round of the finest fast. Listen to Michael Holley claim that this is the lightning round might mean Apple's fourth on did -- Well it's a fact now sponsor -- usually get rid of it it's. Say that this is the lighting on and then take a call after cook and not. Do the middle lightning round fashion piece marching the reputation of the lightning round when you just keeping the seat warm that is not a good way to get yourself invited back who -- want to be back come home -- it was so we're not going to in my mirror image is that right I got a I got other deals from other -- a big snow on the table. -- I'm afraid he'll tell holly I'm -- out perfect call and in my this is the lightning round the way it's supposed to be done and we're going to start when Jason in Portland Maine. Kicked your points make your comments who moving on this is -- rounds Jason Jason.

Undermines good -- I want to say that I don't agree about them being back maybe and I am over thirty I think this whole thing with what he did not in Houston. I think what Hendry coming out beat you know he has. I think they're going to speak we're going to let you know that in video and it all it to my it even if they do pick him up a one warrior. Right into the next year I did not pick up my option for 2000. If you gonna play for the all here. We've seen it over and over maybe give it a great years of the kind of always remember they inherited this guy than a guy they -- it. And the whole collection I think I think that's out who did we take --

Good comments thinks few calls welcome the lightning round where you let's go to you down and Cumberland Rhode Island what's a break.

Number march I don't guys look at this is ridiculous and Manny Ramirez and every right to know. What they gotta do you giving you two World Series you know give it to walk five into the deal -- tell what's happened and that's the bottom line.

Manny Ramirez doesn't have any rights are held all the options thanks for the call this is the lightning round. It's MNJ pay.
