    Just because I'm a lucky guy, I have to "listen" to the Rox announcers...I read the constant complaints on here about Steiner, Orel, Nomar, even Davis...
    Compared to the CO guys, they are like Shakespearean orators.
    Damn, these guys are a grating, droning dirge.

    i don't dislike any of our guys
    and i think its fair to say we're all probably a little spoiled from having vin
    vin never included himself with the dodgers
    always showed neutrality and reverence
    i don't like when any broadcaster says we/them
    and orel is not the only one, and there are others that are worse
    my biggest gripe with orel is that and that he sometimes talks too much while saying nothing
    he also overexplains things -- things that even the most common of fans would know -- which comes across condescending
    like explaining a joke... if you have to do it, it doesn't work
    again, there are others who are just as bad/far worse
    i like davis and nomar
    my only beef with steiner is that he makes a lot of mistakes
    but i cut him some slack because he's like 150 and reminds me of morrie from goodfellas

    A point well taken, but I could say the same about Vinny ( since you brought him/ it up).
    How many times did he repeat stuff over and over and over...and explained it away rarely. If he did, it was "because people were always tuning in at different times he said, so maybe those tuning in in the fifth inning, didn't hear what he said in the second"(or whenever). I never bought it, but as the best, it seemed valid to do it all the time... for years. Even before he got older.
    Not every fan is on a Dodger website every day, and watches 162 games+ every year like we lunatics here do, let's face it. Examining minutia, stats and micro-shit.
    I don't think detailed info is meant for the uber savvy fan, either, like Orel does.
    There are lots more casual fans out there are than the DSP fanatic type, for sure.
    Anyway, just my tuppence.
    And the CO guys are audio sedation.

    I guess Mehcarthy is recovered from his illness...wonder what it was?
    Looks like starvation, maybe.

    he's a bum
    any illness he has is between the ears
    that said, he could be an option out of the pen for the post... but i doubt it

    Impressed in the Dodgers taking 2/3 in Coors. Wasn't expecting it. Sure, the games don't matter but it's still nice to see some good individual performances and not roll over.

    Better way to end a season than getting swept by the Gnats.

    Well, the season ends on a W, just like it should.
    It ain't over till the fat lady sings, so good luck to all LAD fans everywhere.
    Bring it...
