The Endzone

Let’s talk all things NFL! Join us on the air every Monday at 4:30 PM during the football season.

Rick Stoakley, a true Salisbury native and proud alum of Wicomico High School (Class of ’96), has been a sports fanatic since day one. Whether it was tearing up the field in varsity football, sinking three-pointers on the basketball court, or showing off his skills in soccer, baseball, and golf, Rick was always in the game and in it to win.

After graduating from Salisbury State University in 2000 with a degree in business management and a focus on marketing, Rick brought his passion for sports and savvy business sense to Draper Media in 2008, where he’s been making waves ever since.

But when it comes to fandom, Rick’s heart beats for the Baltimore Ravens and Orioles. A die-hard Ravens fan, he never misses a home game at M&T Bank Stadium—he’s the guy who knows every chant, every stat, and can probably predict the next play.

Rick now calls Delmar home, where he lives with his wife, Brittany, and their four lovable dogs Tater, Daphne, Eloise, and Hazel. Whether he’s cheering on the Ravens or Orioles, or just enjoying life on the Eastern Shore, Rick’s enthusiasm for sports and his community is contagious.

Gary Schofield is a lifelong Eagles fan and broadcasting veteran with over 20 years behind the mic on Delmarva. He’s been the play-by-play radio voice of Milford High School football, Delaware Thunder hockey, and hosted his own sports talk show, “Schofield on Sports,” from 2017-2019 in a past radio life. You’ll catch him on occasion helping with football coverage on the Delmarva Sports Network. Every Sunday he’s yelling at his Eagles to “run the ball,” or exclaiming, “Can WE tackle someone?!” but he does love going for it on fourth down!

Although labeled as the rookie of this program, Jared Watson has been watching and studying the game of football for over 15 years. As a proud Green Bay Packers fan and part-owner of the franchise, Jared pulls for the green and gold and even wears a cheese head from time to time!

Jared also spent many days after school around his high school football team,  the Delmar Wildcats, who were the 2017 state champions. There, he learned from some of the best coaches on the Eastern Shore. To Jared, Sundays are for two things—church in the morning and football all afternoon! And now, Mondays are for The Endzone!

Frank Hamilton was in sixth grade when, during Christmas at his grandparents’ house, he sat down to watch TV and saw the longest game in NFL history: the Miami Dolphins and Kansas City Chiefs. This began his lifelong love of football.

His favorite player when he was younger was the Chiefs’ Ed Podolak. Now, Frank is a Packers owner and a huge Notre Dame fan. Frank played football for the Delmar Wildcats and since graduating from high school has coached at the high school level, Salvation Army, and NFL 360, never posting a losing season. He also played sandlot football into his 50s and still rides around with a football in all his vehicles.

With over 25 years of TV & radio experience, Jon Joines is no stranger to the world of sports broadcasting.

Born into a New England Patriots dynasty (or at least he likes to think so), Jon’s love for the Pats started when his grandparents moved to Delaware from Massachusetts in the early 70s. He’s been bleeding red, white, and blue ever since.

But Jon’s passion for sports doesn’t stop there—he was a two-time all-American baseball player in college and continues to be an avid sports fan. Whether it’s football, baseball, or the annual Thanksgiving backyard game, Jon’s competitive spirit is always on display.

Jon’s most controversial (but absolutely correct) sports take? The Monday after the Super Bowl should be a national holiday. Who doesn’t need a day off to recover from all of the adrenaline and nachos?
