Anyway he makes my top 5 race callers of all time list. Always enjoyed his calls at HP and especially now at Oaklawn.
BTW How come we don’t ever hear Frank Mirahmadi doing is impressions throughout the races ? Is it because most of them would be unfamiliar to today’s audience ? His Marv Albert was spot on.

Top 5 all time. That's rarified air Bob. Don't know if it's deserved. But thanks.
I don't THINK I'm weird or insecure. But I suppose it's possible. Tina would probably side with CASTAWAY.
There was a time when I was 1000% more confrontational on these forums. I did that because I thought it was fun to mix it up.
I quickly found out people take things MUCH MORE seriously than me and toned it down.
Now I try to be a voice of reason and explanation. 45 years into this wacky sport has taught me quite a bit and I love sharing those experiences.
FYI speaking of rating announcers. A Worldwide pool ranking announcers was recently released. I was voted the 2nd best announcer ever......
All the others tied for 1st!
