Since when are announcers supposed to be free of "bias"? Ever hear Marshall Cassidy call an Easy Goer race? Or really any announcer call a race in which a "big star" is involved with? Exactly what effect on anything does a "biased" racecall have on anything? If you bet on the winner will you not still cash? Are you forced to listen? Luke K was a close friend of mine who always added a little emphasis when I had a winner or when my horses were making a move in a race. Who exactly does it hurt?
