Vin Scully coming back

[casty33]

I couldn't be happier.

He's a washed-up blowhard. [/smashersloan]

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.

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?

 

[buckweaver]

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.

If I remember right from 2009, he does the first three and last three innings on radio, with Steiner/Monday doing the middle innings.

And so as dusk descends on Dodger Stadium and Clayton Kershaw takes the mound, the words of Insane Clown Posse resonate,

**** the west coast, and **** everybody on the east
Eat **** and die, or **** off at least
**** pre-schoolers, **** rulers
Kings and Queens and gold jewelers
**** wine coolers
**** chickens, **** ducks
Everybody in your crew sucks, punk mother ****s
**** critics, **** your review
Even if you like me, **** you
**** your mom, **** your mom's momma
**** the Beastie Boys and the Dali Llama
**** the rain forest, **** a Forrest Gump
You probably like it in the rump
**** a shoe pump, **** the real deal and **** all the fakes
**** all fifty two states! Oooo, and **** you

As Ellis fires the ball down to second base, we're just about ready to get underway....

Hey, I thought you were afraid!

He's definitely on the broadcasts -- even if the games are east of Denver, which he doesn't do during the regular season. Should be doing all innings, but don't know if that's the case. The first three, then from the seventh on sounds right, but his contract could have changed.

Hey, I thought you were afraid!

I joined a support group. We're working through things.

 

[Football_Bat]

Vin Scully's a 6.

 

[TigerVols]

Vin needs to get his **** together.

Yet more proof that tits don't equal brains.


Although I predict a major network anchoring job for the young lady's future.
