Anybody that didn't like Dooley's Riser Star call is probably deaf, or a non-excitable person and wants a Battilgia call every single time. BLAH.

That call was called to the exact thoughts of the people betting Pyro, like "HOLY **** PYRO IS ****ED, OH MAN HERE HE COMES, HOLY CRAP he is FLYING"

WTF do people want from these callers? Dooley MAYBE makes one name mistake out of 150, where Denman makes it every 20-25, and don't give me that 2nd language crap or whatever the heck he is.

Excitement gets people interested in racing and race calls, not friggin split calls, wrong names, and focusing on the leaders the whole friggin time.

I liken this conversation to people bitching about Vic's Lava Man calls, THERE IS AN EAGLE, A BALD EAGLE, or whatever he said, and then the one where he fought back and yelled Lava Man real loud.

My guess is that people that didn't like this Pyro call, didn't like the Tiznow DOES IT FOR AMERICA call either.

I just saw the race today and thought the call was great. Dooley continues to be one of the best and most underated guys in the game.
