Samhan makes pitch for Taylor Swift on KCBS; Friday pulse

Omar Samhan, the darling of St. Mary's basketball and the prime reason for the Gaels march to the 'Sweet sixteen in the NCAA basketball tourney, offered some 'sweet love for country sultry, Taylor Swift, on KCBS Friday morning.

Sports anchor, Steve Bitker, played an actuality in which Samhan, speaking from Houston before a packed group of reporters went gaga over Swift.

"Hey Taylor, I love you, " gushed Samhan. "I 'listen to your music before every game. It inspires me." Bitker and news anchor, Stan Bunger, asked aloud if Samhan was kidding. Take it from me, he wasn't. And good for Samhan too.

I don't know nor care the 'availability of Ms. Swift, but me thinks any day now, with reality TV hovering in the air, expect Samhan, somehow, to  be introduced to the lovely country singer. Hey, she's young and beautiful. And Samhan looks headed for the NBA.

Need I say anything more?
