The Mel Pearson Show

Once again Red is out of town, this time on the recruiting trail since the Wolverines have a bye week, so associate head coach Mel Pearson sits behind the mic.  T.J. Hensick also stops by to chat.  Listen to the show at MHNet.

Wife Swap

I received an e-mail from Kirstin Dodich from RDF Media.  They do the casting for ABC's reality show Wife Swap.  They are looking for a family of serious hockey fans for an upcoming season.  Not just watching it on TV, but attends games and maybe even plays hockey.  "Everyone in the family should love hockey!" she says.

The premise of the show is to take two very different families and switch the mom's for a week.  Each family should consist of two parents and at least one child over the age of five and should reside in the continental U.S.

Each family that tapes an episode of Wife Swap receives a $20,000 honorarium.

If you are interested in this opportunity, contact Kirstin at kirstin.dodich@... or call her at (212) 404-1418, and also mention my name and U-M Hockey Newsletter where you heard it from.

Early Signing Period

This week is the early signing period for hockey recruits.  U-M's current list for 2006 includes forward Brian Lebler, defensemen Chris Summers and Steve Kampfer, and goalie Steve Jakiel.  Expect some comments from the coaches possibly next week on The Red Berenson Show after they receive their signed letters of intent.
