Gary Radnich spent the better part of two hours Thursday on KNBR ripping Jerry Rice over his decision to pursue professional golf.
Rice is currently playing in the Nationwide tour; not very well, but nevertheless trying. (He missed the cut in the Hayward stop in the tour in early April)
Radnich maintained it was a pr gimmick and that Rice was looking to make a buck off his name.
Wrong.
A Rice spokesperson said JR wasn't "paid a cent." Dan Dibley, Radnich' sidekick even chided Raddy. "Garry, he didn't make a dime--it all goes to his charity." Newsman Ray Woodson concurred.
To be fair, I'm not the biggest Rice fan, but if HOF dude wants to play golf, let him play golf. As a caller later said, "what's he going to do--sit at home and watch TV all day?"
