Even though he is only talking from a minute to two minutes at the most, I mute the sound during his races.....seems like a nice enough guy, but not only is he the worst one calling today, I can't imagine there has ever been someone as bad....

They should let the guy call that was doing it when he worked for NBC. Maybe he just doesn't know and he needs to read Derby Trail to figure out how bad he is

Scav, I just saw the replay and it was as brutal as it can get. He had so many chances to correct his mistakes, but he continued to butcher the call all the way to the wire. He should never be allowed to call another race.
