Ha! Perfect opportunity to post this hilarious gem from Tom Durkin:

And hey, it can always be worse. I once proofed a textbook where I had to explain to the reader that no, Woody and Arlo's last name was not pronounced "GOOTH-ree."

Hey, GR, almost didn't recognize TD there. It was alot less PC then with toms self deprecating humor lightening it up. Boy, do i miss his calls. thanks for the link.

Glad you liked it! I miss his calls, too. At least the best (and funniest) ones live on forever on Youtube.

I cant begin to imagine how difficult it is to call a race. All I know is that everyone of us would butcher any racecall even if we tried but as long
we could pronounce Mishegas then anyone of us could get the job at Santa Anita perhaps.

Wrona IMO is the best choice for Santa Anita. He makes it look easy. Other race callers seems like they are reading from a script while wrona tells a story.
