[tom paine 2]

I will remember listening to Jack on many a steamy summer evening out in the back yard in southern Illinois with the cicadas buzzing in the trees while the broadcast and the subdued roar of the crowd came out of my transistor radio tuned to KMOX

Man - I'm about to cry. Mike Shannon is OK - - but there is NO
comparison to Jack Buck/Harry Carey as the game callers. Man,
I'm thinking about BBQs in the backyard on summmer days in St. Louis.
The epidomy of summer to me was the smell of BBQ and fresh cut grass, and the sounds of the baseball game on the radio. Doesn't get any better than that.
Ah.....innocent youth........
