While Scott’s Shots continues to chronicle WEEI.com’s transformation from promotional arm of the talk radio powerhouse to bona fide sports portal, David Scott did uncover a particularly fascinating piece from WEEI’s Gerry Callahan, penned for the Boston Herald in August of 1991.

That's right .... Andre. The Atlanta Progressive News exposed today that Andre has been getting paid by Rep. David Scott's campaign to blog positively about the Congressman.
