Ok, each to his own, but if you want conformation just watch and listen to his call in last year's Tampa Bay Derby featuring the ill fated O-dee-suss. Someone that knows how should be able to post it here.

The man is an INSTITUTION in Tampa, although if one only listened to his calls without watching the race, said person would probably need to be institutionalized after trying to figure out who actually won and where the winner came from, but that's beside the point

I think Sheets should take that photo every year. It could be his own personalized Grunder Growth Chart.

I just spoke to him about that. We'll get an updated photo Saturday, provided you are willing to once again be the photographer.
