Bert Case is signing off for the last time tonight. May it be especially long and drawn out. Soccer goal style even.

If anyone wants to run into him frequently just go to Lakeland Wine and Spirits in Jackson. I have been probably 20-25 times in the store and he was there 17 of those times. Also likes to hang out at the Flowood WalMart.

I should have added Baleu too LoL. I see him in there all the time as well. And Stephanie Bell Flyant goes to our church so I am within talking distance of all the old timers from Channel 3. Stephanie is a looker in real life. Beautiful woman.

Saw Howard in Kroger two days ago.

I always imagine him walking the aisles looking for something to clean up.

had a dog named Bert Case

Had a beagle that when he was a puppy, got into something that made all the hair on the top of his head and about a 2 inch strip from his head to his tail all fall out. It never grew back. We named him after Bert. Our camp members thought we had lost it when we were walking through the woods calling "Come here Bert Case."

I can't view the video at work but I assume it's the one with Fordice. Marshall Ramsey had the greatest cartoon ever after this happened. He had two workers walking off with the 'Only positive Mississippi spoken here' sign that hung under the 'Welcome to Mississippi' signs after replacing it with a sign that read "I'll whip your ***!" So, of course it now read, "Welcome to Mississippi" "I'll whip your ***!"

Guess Rob Jay will be there until he decides to retire. He was about the poorest sports reporter I've ever seen-always talking about the SWAC schools and trying to be funny. I recall Maggie Wade and Howard Belue thought he was hilarious. Didn't realize how sorry our local channels were until I moved to the Raleigh NC area. No comparison in the quality of the reporters.

Other than being a Jackson icon, he was the most annoying news caster I've ever tried to listen to.

First post. Stephanie Bell was a football cheerleader at State in the early eighties. She was hot.
Bert Case was forced out and you could tell he was not s happy in his final show. There was no on air celebration for a guy who's been there 40 years. In fact Bert said today he wasn't retiring and people would see him around. I think he ends up at ch 16 or ch 12.

Yeah... didn't look like he was bowing out gracefully.

Part of the charm of Bert was that he was basically a cartoon character. It's not like this is going to kill the local broadcast news, but it won't be as entertaining.

Regarding Stephanie Bell. When I was a senior in HS, she spoke at a symposium that several folks in my English class went to at Jackson State. In this professional symposium of primarily students and some administrators, she said one of my all-time favorite hot woman lines: "Some people think I'm a real *****. You know what? They're absolutely right." She had me even more from that point on.

Stephanie Bell (MSU class of 1981), cheerleader for the Bulldogs and married to a high school buddy of mine. She is good looking and a great person as well.
