I think it's written in all of Tom Durkin's contracts that he has to use the word "throatlatch" at least once per race card.
He gets an A on my race call ratings card. |

Tom Durkin should be heard and
not seen. A fine old aristocratic woman out of the Victorian era. Who the heck does his makeup and hair? He is all white and puffed up. Get thee to a nunery. |

"Scrappy T takes out Afleet alex!!!" Oh man, Tom was right on it this day in 2005. Tom is my favorite caller. He totally brings a person into the excitement of the moment and is great at letting you know what is going on with the rest of the field. "Afleet Alex....AWESOME!!"

azerica... I think you might have Tom Durkin mixed-up with Dave Rodman, who I believe used the "Afleet Alex... awesome!" line in his call. He calls it for Pimlico and the simulcast feed, Durkin calls it for the NBC audience.
Speaking of Rodman, if anyone has a few moments, YouTube his '08 Preakness calls, it was fantastic. |

He's ok and sometimes I enjoy a good hogging session...but for me nothing beats rollerblading and letting chicks on bikes pass me by so I can get a good look at their asses.
Why did I post this? Because I'm a manly man and this thread makes me uncomfortable. |

Of all I've ever heard, Denman is my favorite followed by Marshall Cassidy then Durkin.
