For the record, that's virtually identical to the article I referenced earlier in the already-established thread about Bob's replacement.

This has been another installment of Matt Ottinger's Masters of the Obvious.
Stay tuned for all the obsessive-compulsive fun of Words Have Meanings.

Good catch.  I guess we don't need a separate thread for it then. :-)  Threads merged.

Looks like Mario Lopez isn't betting the farm on being "The One" to replace Bob.

According to a Zap2it Article, Mario is working on a CW pilot.

Not to say that he couldn't do both Price & this show if it makes it to air...

That was after her job as an elevator operator, where she kept going down.

Was it Dan Devine who replaced Lombardi? Or did he replace Ara Parseghian? Anyway, there are a couple of examples from the world of sport.

And Frank Vascellaro! Ha! His problem wasn't replacing a legend, it's that he's as shallow as they come. At least until they brought in his replacement. (Sorry to extend the Minneapolis local news portion of the chat.)

Let's not forget Tim Floyd with the Bulls in the late '90s...

(Devine just replaced Parseghian. Lombardi had been gone, both from the Packers and life (died in 1970
), before he got there.)

Dang it--I was trying to.  :)

Only in the Bulls' case, it took the guy who replaced the guy who replaced the guy who replaced the legend for them to get back into the playoffs.
