He remembers the old California!

[Pilgrim's Progress]

Now we have to listen to Impemba and Allen . . . what a let down!

[Excellence]

Short, sweet, and to the point.

[Mr. Mojo]

Scully, Harwell, and Mel Allen comprise my Top 3.

Most overrated: Red Barber, Scully’s mentor.

***I don’t like it when libs voice their opinions “from the booth” either.***

But they do...constantly. I want every conservative voice out there to go after every stupid lib belief system as if it stole money from my mother. And do it every chance possible until the libs curl up into fetal positions in the corner holding their urine soaked blankies and cursing every lib politician ever born for bringing into existence this onslaught of rationality that is making their crazy little minds turn to a puddle of grey soup.

That’s awesome.

“I, similar to thousands of other young boys, vividly remember going to bed with our little transistor radio . . . listening to that voice painting a beautiful picture in our minds of the action on the field”

Wow, beautifully said. Been there did that in the mid - late 60’s with my Dads rock solid little Sony 9V radio. Had to go under the bed covers to make sure the sound of Vinny, Jerry Doggett or UNION 76/ Farmer John commercials didn't carry downstairs or I'd catch an earful if it was a school night

Blasting practices and people that are responsible for a 7-digit bodycount should be the practice of every American at every position of influence, be that at a town hall or on the air at a baseball diamond. Good for Scully.

Way to go Vin Scully. He’s retiring this year and is untouchable. And what did he say that is not factual?

[HLPhat]

Jimmy the Greek got fired for articulating a similar truth.

Screw it. Throw ‘em the HEAT, Scully!

>> If you’re in the club socialism is great. And it works every time it’s tried.

Seems to be working for Governor Chickenlooper's Jesuit Marxist pals running the second largest Bank/Collective in Colorado.

Just like it worked for their predecessors down in Paraguay:

Evidently financing the construction of low income multi family housing is very profitable.

Just don't ask who's going to pay for the train the slums are being built alongside the tracks of, after the Jesuit Marxist MBA vampires tell you to vote for the choo choo.... 'cause that would be "political".

Eff'em. It's the bottom of the Ninth...  Batter UP!

It is incumbent upon the honorable craftsman to be aware
of whether or not his services are being used
as a means to accomplish evil ends -
and to act (or NOT) accordingly.

I remember listening to him in the late ‘60s. No one can paint a picture on radio the way he can.

[Em and Brets Mum]

Mr.Vin Scully then as now always spoke of values and ethics. But it was always in terms of sports. He would call a player out for not running a play out to first base. He would describe the hustle and effort of others. He would share stories of team play, sacrifce and the desire for excellence.

Hated the Dodgers from their time in Brooklyn but with such an insightful announcer as Vin, I will have to change my opinion!

Excellent rant. Hopefully the goons who believe socialism is great will see the light.

Charles Osgood did a vignette on Vince Scully about 25 years ago. The vignette is set in Brooklyn, in the 1950’s, when Scully was the new radio play-by-play announcer for the Dodgers. Scully is taking a taxi to Ebbets Field, and the cabbie, who did not recognize Scully, was complaining about Scully’s coverage. “That Scully, he’s too fair.”

Osgood concluded his vignette by noting, “I don’t know what they are teaching in journalism schools these days, but it sure isn’t Vince Scully.”

Same old Scully, same old journalists.
