I'm at the point where I actually miss Marshall Cassidy, the ultimate DOOFUS race caller. And, if Imbriale would time the start a little better (he's on internet start time) I might want him as the 1st string NY race caller.

Definitely time for Durkin to hang it up. Maybe we can get Arrrrrrrrrrrrrr to run up at Sar and send Durkin out in style.
Cassidy was great. You had to love how in a sprint race, they would be crossing the finish line and he'd be saying "they're off". Seriously, I thought he was the second best I've ever heard behind Denman.
