Locker Talk lineup for April 27

If Mother Nature won't take a subtle hint, we may need to force her (cold) hand by talking about summer/fall sports on this week's episode of Locker Talk on AccessNow tv. So, that's what we've done! Hopefully that hastens the arrival of more spring-like weather. At the very least, we get to talk a lot of local football (plus baseball/softball), so that's never a bad thing! The show airs tonight at 6:00 and repeats each weeknight at the same time. Here's the lineup:
