Congrats To JDizzy
My buddy Jason Dizik, better known as Diz, has always had a great announcers voice, and combine that with his seemingly limitless sports knowledge, and you've got an ideal sports broadcaster. JDiz volunteered (or paid? I dunno) to announce football games at NF, and he was the one who gave me my nickname, The KTrain. During my captain's speech at my football banquet, I was listing down people to thank, and Diz was among them. He even gave me a couple of interviews on the local TV station, announced me as a "football star" heh, and even though the interview went south pretty fast, I appreciated the opportunity. The other interview I did was when I came back from college for one of the football games. I did the shit they do on ESPN where retired football players show the viewers how to correctly do stuff; I was taped live showing how running backs are supposed to take a handoff.
Partying with Diz is awesome, he only drinks wine because it has less calories than beer or hard liquor. He watches his calories because honestly, he used to be pretty huge. He is probably the biggest success story I've ever seen when it comes to losing weight. He used to be 300+ and after working out REAL hard over last summer, he's now below 200. Yeah, he burned that much. I worked out a couple of times with him and I couldn't even keep up, he goes on the elliptical for an hour at a really fast pace, AFTER lifting and doing abs. He burns at least 1,000 calories alone on the elliptical, and combine that with eating right... it's no wonder how he lost so much weight. I feel kinda akward because he weighs less than me now, but oh well I guess I can use that as a goal or motivation to work out hard. So anyways, partying with him is pretty fun, he gets pretty goddamn drunk, and he is quite the bigot when intoxicated (he's a bigot anyways but is more vocal about it when drunk). It's funny to see him throw racial slurs around at random people, and even funnier to play Madden with him when fucked up. We pissed off Brad one night when we were going to play a game of Madden with 12 minute quarters, but Brad kept yelling at us to shut if off (it was about 2:30 in the morning) so we stopped.
Diz goes to Central Michigan under their Broadcast and Cinematic Arts program, and as a sophomore next year will be their highest ranked staff member aside from the instructors. When Peyton Manning visited CMU to talk about some charity program he runs, Diz got the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to talk with the quarterback with the most touchdowns in NFL history. Diz got an internship this summer to WDFN Sports 1130 The Fan, I remember he would call into the station when our football team would win games (when I played), and now he's working for them. He is listed on the Detroit Sports Broadcasters Association (DSBA) as a registered broadcaster, among the ranks of Detroit sportscaster Mark Champion, Fox 2 reporters Jennifer Hammond and Dan Miller, sportscaster Bob "Wojo" Wojnowski, and the voice of the World Champion Detroit Pistons himself, George Blaha. It's safe to say that some of the most influential media personas in Michigan are members of the DSBA, and the cool thing is that Diz is featured in their "Member Spotlight". I'll place the link below, whether or not he's in the member spotlight still depends on how long you wait to see it after I've posted this article. So congrats to Diz, when you make it to the big show, broadcasting Monday Night Football or something, don't forget the first (and greatest) nickname you gave out, to me, the KTrain. Oh, and hook me up with a job then too.
