Funny thread.
One prominent, successful race caller defending two other prominent, successful race callers from a bunch of anonymous cat callers typing away in their mommy's basements one handed.

You can't script this stuff!

Btw, congrats on your best bet Saturday at OP, as mentioned on TVG.
Great day of racing.

Back in the day the DRF had letters to the editor.

When Tom Durkin was hired at Gulfstream to replace Ross Morton (RIP). A guy wrote a scathing letter saying how could GP hire a hack like Durkin over the greatest announcer ever? Ross.

I would congratulate you on a nice pick, if you ever post one.

Even if Andy gets jealous when someone besides himself get acknowledged.

Thanks Konk. Rare is the day that it actually goes the way you think it will. That was fun. Super happy to see Art, Steve and Alan Sherman win a $200 grander.

Also, very happy for Dan Ward. Jerry Hollendorfer's long time assistant who does a great job.

Hopefully you handicap the horses better than you handicapped this situation.

So far two people aren’t in on the joke. Wanna guess who those two are? Let me know if you need a hint.

Wow….you made a post without making it ALL about you.

Who stole your login?

Other than freddymo’s posts, what posts could be perceived as anything that would require a defense of the “two other prominent, successful race calls” that you mention. As far as I know, everyone here loves Nick Tammaro and who doesn’t like Tom Durkin?

I don’t know freddymo well enough but I thought he was joking.
