As PBP, he has to put on the cheesy happy guy facade and say stupid stuff like "the program says Berra is 6'5", but he was as tall as a mountain on that save" schtick.
On HC at noon, he was blunt, thoughtful and bang on with his analysis. He even got into it with Doug Maclean. Maclean was ribbing him with some question like, when are you gonna get you haircut and Kerr responded by saying he was gonna dress like Doug for Halloween and go around telling everyone what a good job he did in Colombus. Maclean was irritated and it was great.
This is where Rob thrives. Where he can have his own pinion and an avenue to share it. Just like when he used to run the afternoon show and did miles more on it than anyone has since.

I could not agree more. Great post.
Rob Kerr is the good guy alter-ego of Eric Francis. Like that guy from Misfits who can split in two.
