Congrats to him. Even for the guys, it's rare. Especially as you say Dawg, your local TV market.

Here's a little sampling of Dennis' sports that I've found. He is certainly the voice of my generation around here, alongside guys like the late Roy Stanley from WDBJ7 and Greg Roberts, formerly of WSLS10.



With Dennis' retirement, there is only one extremely long term anchor left, Robin Reed who has been with WDBJ7 as it's weather chief and now lead anchor since the late 70's. Robin is the mentor of well known weatherlady Cecily Tynan, who spent a few years at WDBJ in the 90's.

The Man, The Myth, The Legend. Gettin' down to some James Brown after a long day dealing with a power outage in the area.
