The First Team M-F 6a-10a

In 1981, DeFo started down the path of a 25 year on air romance with South Florida sports fans. As Miami expanded from a one pro franchise Dolphins town to the Heat, Panthers and Marlins, Jeff DeForrest and his sports talk audience grew with the city.
His career came full circle in October 2007 as DeFo returned to his NewsTalk roots, joining the 850 WFTL Morning News Team. Today, DeFo anchors mornings on 640 AM Sports. This run promises to be his best ever as he is surrounded by the best talent in the business and a loyal fan base that is second to none.

Every weekday morning, Erik “The Red” Lengyel takes his place at the controls of The First Team. He is the technical ringmaster for the 3 hour circus that takes place from 6a-9a on WFTL 640 Sports.Born in the swamps of New Orleans, Erik is a rabid Saints fan as well as a veteran of many a Mardi Gras. At the age of 6, the Lengyel family moved to Hollywood, Florida. As young Erik grew up, the South Florida lifestyle suited him well; sunshine, beaches, bikini clad girls everywhere. This was home!
While attending Hollywood Hills High, Erik lettered in football, spring break and wrestling. It was here that Erik discovered the importance of the gym and pumping iron; on the field against your opponents or on Fort Lauderdale beach chillin with the ladies.
Erik was Defo’s technical director in 2002 during his first stay at WFTL where they developed an on air chemistry. That’s also where the nickname Erik “The Red”, based on the pillaging viking, was born.
