I can't stand Stauffer.
I would rather listen to just about ANYONE not named Dave Johnson than him.
His "soaring like a bald eagle" was just the greatest example of his annoyingly overdone race calls, that I believe demonstrate that Vic thinks he, rather than the horses, is the star of the show.
It also frequently appears that he looked at the entries for the race for the first time about 2 minutes before the race starts, and only knows about half the horses in the field.
When Durkin calls it quits, I hope to God they don't put that guy on the TC races. That gig should go to John Dooley....who I believe is the best around.
