    We all have our opinions. I just know Mr. Scully is better than most of the current announcers I hear today. But, of course, I guess I'm a washed-uo blowhard, too.
    Thank you very much.

    With the Jays rained out Sportsnet here in Ontario is picking up the Dodgers-Marlins game from the start instead of joining it in progress. Was very happy to see we were getting Dodgers feed with Vin Scully. The next three-plus hours for me are set.

    ...It was Benjamin Disraeli who said, “Inebriated with the exuberance of his own verbosity, and gifted with an egotistical imagination.”

    Ball two, outside, to Ethier...

    LINE DRIVE BASE HIT ... caught out there! Runner tags, here he comes. Throw to the plate on target and in time. Double play to end the inning.

    Doesn't "better than Chip Caray" lower the bar to a "better than Eric Wedge" level?

    A valid point.

    Casty, I know personally of your relationship with Vin and I'm with you. I'm glad that he's coming back.

    Love Vin Scully. Glad he'll be around to listen to next year.

    The perfect storm to drive Smasher into insanity: Vin Scully doing rap.

    If the Dodgers make the playoffs does anyone know if Scully will call the games on radio? I know for the regular season they simulcast him on radio the first three innings. It would be great to hear him doing postseason games.
