Dave Johnson does the track announcing at Charles Town on West Virginia Breeders Classic day now. No joke.

i heard the calll, which i thought was horrendous. matter of fact, this is the first time i've realized that it was dave johnson! no joke, i didn't know it was him. i thought it was some first timer who had no clue, no names, no studying, SOMETHING.
wow. i bet he was embarassed. worst call since they lost the audio and randy moss had to 'call' the race. at least randy had an excuse, he's no caller, and certainly wasn't prepared.

poor dave...too many martinis at lunch?

He sounded very distracted. Like he was looking for something.

It was a Harry Caray moment.

Unreal how bad it was. He's the Zippy Chippy of announcers now. Can't buy a win.
