We could have talked to Dave Raymond, the "original friend of the Phanatic" & creator of Gritty, for hours yesterday on The Heart of Sports. You can hear how he went from a college punter, to Phillies intern to first friend of the Phanatic. He tells us the origins of Gritty and the warnings he gave before the mascot was unveiled. And he talks us about much much more. You'll want to take the time out and catch this show.
