Allowing this guy to call the West Virginia Derby card was embarrassing. I feel bad for him, for you, and for "Mountaineer Nation" that he was permitted to call a quality card, with top notch riders, trainers, and fans who normally don't frequent Mountain broadcasts.
It's so bad that I am about to jump in my car, drive to New Cumberland and audition for the job.

To be honest, I rarely even listen to Mnr calls. I keep the volume down and am too consumed with the show.
I do respect what you're saying, but it's all far above my pay grade.
Please appreciate what an awkward position Pete's steadfast silence and my own lack of status at Mnr have put me in.
I'm just a soldier, Mustang.
