Tommy is a friend and I do wish him well. I spoke with him just before the premier airing of the show and he was 'a little' nervous over how the show would be perceived. I told him that some would 'eat his lunch' and others would 'love it' but all he could control is what he did and that he just had to do his best and let it ride. I told him that public opinion is always hard and that he has some pretty big shoes to fill so their will be some comparison and perhaps even some jealousy. There will also be personal attacks and every 'opinion' you can and cannot think of. If there is one lesson I have learned in the past three years it is that you CANNOT please all of the people all of the time, so don't try. It will be tough in the beginning but it will get better as folks get used to you.
