This show gets started every single weekday at 6 p.m. Eastern, 3 Pacific. I'm coming to you live from Atlanta, Georgia. Our super producer and host, Ryan Hickey, he's holding it down for us on the boards in New York City.
So it doesn't matter where you're at in the country or in Canada or in Mexico or an airplane or a submarine or out of space or in another country, wherever the hell you at. Thank you for listening. On the free Odyssey app, your local Infinity Sports Network affiliate, Sirius XM Channel 158, and a smart speaker if you got it. Just ask your speaker.
Yeah, talk to your computer. Ask it to play the Infinity Sports Network and boom, we pop right on up. The Western Conference Finals in the NBA is about to pop right on up. The Dallas Mavericks and the Minnesota Timberwolves scheduled to get underway minutes from now. We've already talked about the Eastern Conference Finals.
The Celtics got away with one last night. Thank you so much to Gary Washburn from the Boston Globe for joining us last hour. He's like, yeah, Joe Missoula, he's young guy. Players love him. Very intense guy. I can tell. I can tell. Anyway, I'm about to share with you a top six list. Talk about sports announcers, my favorite sports announcers.
And why? Because amongst all the news that we've discussed and talked about the NFL going to 18 games eventually, no time soon. It's not imminent, says Roger Goodell. We talked about Greg Olsen. This man just won a sports Emmy and is being demoted by Fox to make way for Tom Brady.
And then obviously we discussed this as well earlier in the show. The NBA on TNT, their contract expires next year and it's been reported that it's going to end. There's not going to be a renewal and that the NBA is going to have a deal with the NBA on NBC will be back as well as Amazon. And so it appears that things are going to be over for the NBA at Turner Sports, which means things would be over at Turner Sports for Shaq, Kenny, Ernie and Charles Barkley. So I'm going to share with you my top six sports announcers in a second. We'll do that.
If you want to communicate with me, you can always do so. The phone number is 855-212-4227. That's 855-212-4227. If you use the internet, I am at JR Sport Brief. I want to get to the phones and then I do definitely want to get into the top six because announcing is a part of technology. It sets sports up into a different space.
It can be very important. And I want to highlight some of my personal favorites. 855-212-4227. Let's go to Omaha, Nebraska, and talk to AJ. You're on the JR Sport Brief Show. What's up, AJ?
What's up, JR? So this is some of our newest sports talk shows today, about this old Ricky Stenhouse, Kyle Busch incident. Now, I am an avid NASCAR fan. I'm not going to, I'm not going to deny it.
I have to explain to people all the time what they just don't understand. I am mortified at the fact that this guy has been fined the largest fine in NASCAR history. Okay. AJ, hold on. In the interest of time, I'm going to try to speed things up here. For anyone who's not familiar, Ricky Stenhouse punched Kyle Busch in the face this past weekend. Hold on, AJ.
I'm not done. I'm summarizing to save us time. Ricky Stenhouse punched Kyle Busch in the face this past weekend in North Carolina.
As a result, Ricky Stenhouse has been fined $75,000 for punching another man in the face. So AJ, to save us time, what's your problem or issue? What's your comment? Well, to those that don't understand the sport, what did Kyle Busch do on the track? He wrecked him.
He literally used an automobile as a weapon. Okay, AJ, hold on a second. In the interest of time, so NASCAR looked into this. NASCAR is not punishing Kyle Busch. Okay, AJ, are you fine with NASCAR's investigation?
Investigation about what? Okay, so that that spares us. Thank you, AJ, for calling from Omaha.
Like, what do you want me to do? Okay, Kyle Busch had an accident. If NASCAR felt that he really did it on purpose, then they would have fined him too. They didn't, okay? So what are you going to be mad at? And by the way, let's get rid of that complete point. And I'm sorry, it didn't seem like there was any conversation to have with AJ from Omaha, because, Hickey, we would have been here for the next how long?
Two hours at least, I mean, until they kick us off. Here's the deal. Forget about what Kyle Busch did or did not do. Forget about whether or not it was on purpose or not.
Forget all of that. He punched a dude in the face who was just standing there. I mean, to think that he would not be punished makes no sense, okay?
That's just flat period. Look at, let's look at it this way. If Kyle Busch wanted to, he could charge him with assault.
I think you understand that part, right? And I guess if Ricky Stenhouse really wanted to, he could also say that that dude tried to assault me. He didn't. He punched him in the face instead and you got to pay for it. It's really that simple.
It is not that damn complicated. And if NASCAR felt that he tried to kill the guy, then I think NASCAR would have punished him too. Okay? Dudes try to drive each other into the track and into the wall all the time.
NASCAR didn't feel that it was worthy enough to punish him. What do you want me to do? You talking about the punch. You punched him in the face. You get in trouble for it.
It's done. I mean, what the hell do you tell your kids at school? Yeah, somebody hit you. Yeah, go ahead, hit him back. But understand there's a punishment that's coming. Just can't punch people in the face and think that you're going to get a reward. He got fined.
Makes sense. Hickey, what happens if you punch somebody in the face in New York? What happens? Well, it depends. In this day and age, nothing.
Well, I don't mean outside on the street. Let's say it was super producer Stu Kovacs. What happens Stu Kovacs? What happens if you punch Stu in the face? I am getting in trouble.
I'm probably getting fired. There's no questions. There's no question. Right.
There's no argument there. You punched Stu? Yes. Okay. See you later. And if Stu punched you, what would happen to him? Saying that he's gone. It's just that's it.
It doesn't matter what happened. We could play roller derby in the hallway and then maybe everybody gets fired. But I mean, come on, man. Let's use some logic here.
Just a little bit. Anyway. This is why I'm here and I'm I guess, yeah, I'm a radio and my announcer, a host, whatever the hell I am. That's why I'm here.
I think. Okay. Anyway, it's time for a new top six list with all of these awards and announcements and demotions and what have you and Greg Olsen and TNT and the NBA. I'm going to tell you about my top six sports broadcasters ever.
And why? I like to watch sports, but a lot of times I don't I don't care what the guys on TV is saying. I don't need the full explanations unless there's something stupid with the referees. I can sit down and watch a game and enjoy it.
I mean, damn it. When it's 20,000, 30 or 100,000 people in an arena or stadium, I can see what's going on with my own eyes. And I know some people enjoy the radio at a baseball game, at a football game.
I'm good. My eyes can tell me the story and I like to draw my own conclusions. But there are some broadcasters that. They bring the best, they bring the goods. These are individuals throughout the course of my life that I've absolutely enjoyed. It's time for a top six list. I'm going to tell you about my top six sports announcers. It's time to get JR's latest top six list only on the JR Sport Brief.
It is the JR Sport Brief show here on the Infinity Sports Network. This is my opinion. This is this is not even my opinion. Well, it is my opinion. This is my personal list. You can have your own. I'm telling you about my top six favorite sports announcers. And let's just get right the hell on into it. What number are we starting with on the top six list?
Number six. Of course, because it's backwards. I'm going to give you a man who's employed by employed by Turner. And I guess he'd have to be employed by somebody else if they lose the rights. This man can call an NFL game. He can call an NBA game. This man can go out and call a streaker across the field.
He can call a mouse running a cat running down the field. It's Kevin Harlan. This man has broadcast and covered NFL games as an announcer for almost 40 years. He has covered NBA games for almost 40 years. You hear this guy. It's Monday Night Football.
It was Monday Night Football. He's done it all. Kevin Harlan reminds everybody.
There's no regard for human life. He's amazing. Let's listen to a few of his calls. This one is kind of old and we may never hear this again on TNT. This is Kevin Harlan hyped over a dunk of remember Birdman? Oh, and one of my favorites, I think I told you, Kevin Harlan letting everybody know that as LeBron James flies through the air, that LeBron James against the Celtics, this man had no regard, none whatsoever for human life.
This is 2008. And also on TNT, I love Kevin Harlan. This guy gets excited as all hell. I got him in number six, one of my favorite sports announcers, Kevin Harlan number six. What's next?
Number five. Unfortunately, this man is no longer here with us. He passed away in December of 2021. He's a legend. He was a Raiders coach in the 70s. Got himself a title in 77. I remember he packed, well, he teamed up with somebody else who passed away more than a decade ago and Pat Summerall, one of my favorite boardcasters of all time was John Madden. Not only could he sell tough act and tenactin, not only is his name, he is a video game, John Madden. Come on now. Having him paired up with Pat Summerall, calling an NFL game, I miss it. I do.
It's never coming back unless these two guys are frozen, but it's never coming back. John Madden would hand out the form turkeys on Thanksgiving. I mean, he would be amused by the most ridiculous of things while breaking down football in an amazing way and then just going boom.
Hey, here's an example. This is John Madden talking to you about the turf and the sky. It just, just listen to John. If you look right outside of the stadium is, you know, you as a water. So it's at sea level. So this field is always going to be wet and it's going to be heavy and it's going to be loose because if you see here's, here's the water right here and here's the stadium right here.
And somehow there's water comes underneath and gets in there to the stadium. The blue angel, but they were close. You're not supposed to get that close. Are you? Do they know what they're doing?
Well, I hope so. I mean, they were close to us, but they were close to each other. They were at high level. I think that's as close as I've been to an airplane in 18 years. You don't fly. Do you add in Pat Summerall and Fox and super bowls? They, they go together like peanut butter and jelly and famously yet John Madden, he was getting on his bus.
That man did not want to be close to anybody's airplane. Not at all. One of my favorite sports broadcasters. I got John Madden and number five. Let's keep it moving. What's the next number?
Number four. Oh, this dude is so cool. I've never met Kevin Harlan. I've met his daughter. I've never met John Madden.
Never. This guy I've met. His name is David Cone.
Yeah. You didn't expect David Cone here on the list, did you? He's not as famous as, as some of these other guys. David Cone of the yes network, David Cone of ESPN, David Cone can walk you through pitching. He can also walk you through pop culture in a way that goes like, what the hell is David Cone talking about?
Meg the stallion. He's also a genius. Yeah. We can talk about the championships and the world series and the all star games and the perfect games. And we can do all of that with David Cone. But the fact is he knows exactly what he's talking about and he can explain it in a way that doesn't put you to sleep. Like throwing a four seam fastball. Hey, take a listen to this.
This one time he spoke to Grand Central Publish. You grip a fastball cross seam or four seam, you're trying to get these four seams working in unison. And now we have something called spin efficiency. So your wrist position and how you can impart spin on the baseball with these four seams really means a lot. It gives you life and zip through the zone. It almost gives you the illusion of a little bit of a rising fastball.
If you think back to Nolan Ryan, one of the great fastball pitchers of all times, people talked about his rising fastball. Well, that's how he threw it. Crossing four seams and get this four seam spin as tight as you can get it. And as efficiently as you can get those four seams to work in unison, create spin efficiency.
And that's what gives you the life on that four seam fastball. Man, you got to appreciate David Cone. You have to. The man is just.
How can I say it? He's just cool. And I say it for somebody who's met him the first time I met him, he treated me like he knew me forever. So I have a special affinity for David Cone. I do. If I got him at number four on my list here, you know, well, what else can we do? I think we can go to the next number. What number is it? Number three.
At number three on the list. This man spoke like this. He also had one of the best relationships ever with Muhammad Ali. This man's name is Howard Cosell. This man got started in the 50s. His best work, I would say, was in the 60s with Muhammad Ali.
They were you want to talk about peanut butter and jelly? These two would go back and forth all of the time. They were Muhammad Ali was was probably his best subject.
I don't know if we'd get this. Well, I think Muhammad Ali would have been Muhammad Ali anyway. But Howard Cosell was always there to hype him up, to give him the battery in his back to think they would play off of each other like no one ever before. And then even thinking about one of the most famous calls of all time is when George Foreman knocked out smoking Joe Frazier.
Down goes Frazier, down goes Frazier. That took place in 1973. You don't remember what it sounds like?
Take a listen. Well, that was Roberto Duran. Also another one of his famous calls.
I remember this one too. No mas. No more. I'm done.
I'm cooked. Howard Cosell, it doesn't matter if it's down goes Frazier. No mas is one of the greatest of all time. I got Howard Cosell at number three on my list. Top six sports broadcasters. What's the next number?
Number two. Oh, this guy is he's still going. He's still active.
He hasn't slowed down. He is still here with us. This man won a championship with the Knicks.
Two of them. This man I know a long time ago. Sorry about that to the Knicks fans. This man has been on radio since 1987. He's been on television for the past 25 years. This man is in the Basketball Hall of Fame as not just a basketball player, but as an announcer. He's the only one. It is Walt Clive Frazier of the New York Knicks. Swishin' and Dishin' and Swish Cheese D. This guy is a walking dictionary of alliteration. He is.
Take a listen to Clive courtesy of MSG. Kenny, when he went in, he was with the Knicks. He gave me a gift certificate for Christmas. And, you know, I thought it was $50. So it was something Gucci. I told my girlfriend, she goes, man, you can't get nothing to Gucci for $50.
What are you talking about? Dude, I looked at it. It was $500. I assume you put it to good use. Yeah.
I never shot me those stores. I was thinking, yeah, 50, I could get a pair of socks. I don't know, something.
She goes, you can't get nothing in there for 50 bucks. Take a look at Lin and what he does best. Kenny treats, creates, and showing some dexterity as well with the left hand. The left hand rising on peculiar and the left hand ain't that peculiar. I wouldn't know. He said something personal.
I wouldn't have punched him right on the spot. The Knicks score by 28. It's contagious, outrageous. The offensive extravaganza that the Knicks are putting on right now, devastating the Bobcats. It's watching the New York Knicks game and listening to Wal-Claud Frazier's like listening to Dr. Seuss, highly entertaining. And the Nick fans love him because he's a legend. He's the closest thing the Knicks got to a championship because he's still around. And shout out to Wal-Claud Frazier.
I got him number two on my list. It's the JR Sport Brief Show here on the Infinity Sports Network. We're going to take a break. When we come back, I'm going to tell you about my favorite sports announcer of all time. Don't move.

The NBA might be done on TNT next year. Greg Olsen is getting demoted to make way for Tom Brady. So much news coming out about contracts and broadcasting rights and what have you, I wanted to share with you my personal top six list of some of my favorite sports broadcasters of all time. And so I'm about to share with you number one.
Let me give you a quick recap. At number six, I gave you Kevin Harlan. At number five, I gave you John Madden. At number four, I gave you the pitcher, David Kohn. At number three, I gave you Howard Cosell. And number two, I gave you former New York Nick and current Knicks television broadcaster, Walt Clyde Frazier. Been covering the Knicks on the radio since 87. He's been on television with Mike Breen for the past 25 years. Walt Clyde Frazier is just a legend.
He says whatever comes to his mind and rhymes and dimes and dishes and swishes, those are his words, not mine. And so I have Walt Clyde Frazier at number two. And then I can't ignore his suits.
Some of the loudest things that you've ever seen in your life. It's like if you took grandma's couch and threw pink and purple and orange into a suit, it'd be Walt Clyde Frazier's suit. So if I have him at number two, my favorite sports broadcaster of all time is what number? Number one. A legend.
A one of one of what they say. This man helped me fall in love with baseball. He passed away two years ago. His name is Vin Scully. Listening to Vin Scully talk about baseball was like just sitting around with my grandpa. I couldn't tell you how many nights in New York listening to Vin Scully where he was the last voice I heard before I went to sleep. And then Scully went to school in Fordham, New York, in a Bronx, New York. Vin Scully was calling Dodger games before they even moved to Los Angeles. He started with the Dodgers when they were in Brooklyn in 1950.
They moved like eight years later. He quit calling the games in 2016. Here's the awesome thing about Vin Scully. He was the radio and the TV voice until his later years where he would get a break and then he stopped going on the road. This man could tell such an amazing story.
Whether or not you were watching on TV or listening on the radio, you got the gist. The man didn't need a partner. He didn't need a friend.
He didn't need a sidekick. It was you, him, in the game. It made it amazing. I remember the first time listening to him through the internet, really, I think. He did some national broadcasts. I remember the first time I was in Los Angeles. I remember walking into my hotel room and turning on the television. The Dodgers were on and it's like, wow, Vin Scully.
Now I get the TV experience. This is before all the fancy technology and the MLB extra innings. I had to be in Los Angeles to watch and listen. Vin Scully is the man. And some of the most iconic calls that we've had in sports and not just Dodgers history have come as a result of the voice of Vin Scully. Like when he was on a national broadcast and Vin Scully was right there for the call of Hank Aaron's 715th home run, becoming a home run leader. Listen to this courtesy of the Dodgers radio network. Fastball is a high drive into deep left center field.
Buckner goes back to the fan theory. What a marvelous moment for baseball. What a marvelous moment for Atlanta and the state of Georgia. What a marvelous moment for the country and the world. A black man is getting a standing ovation in the deep South for breaking a record of an all time baseball idol. Yeah, I wasn't alive for that, but I remember it.
I've heard it enough. Let's go back to 1988 because that's not the only famous Vin Scully call. Kirk Gibson. Man couldn't move, couldn't run, but he was able to hit a walk off home run in game one of the World Series. This is also courtesy of the Dodgers radio network. You gotta love it. And his final call.
Wow, it's crazy. His final call at Dodger Stadium. This man was done in 2016. Charlie Culbertson had a walk off home run to clinch the National League West for the Dodgers. This was his final home call. Vin Scully. Oh, and one to Charlie. Charlie Culbertson, a game winning home run.
What a moment to have it. And would you believe his first home run of the year? He's the first voice out of all the amazing voices that that have been associated with Major League Baseball.
Vin Scully's is like the one that that stands out to me. I got him number one on my list. My favorite broadcaster of all time.
He gone, so I won't hear him again. But it is Vin Scully. And number six, I had Kevin Harlan. Number five, I gave you John Madden. Number four, I told you David Cole. Number three, Howard Cosell. Number two, Clyde Frazier. And number one, Vin Scully. Now, this is my personal favorite list, OK?
You can have your own as your perspective. We've had plenty of great announcers. I mean, come on. There's the marvelous one, Marv Albert. I can go on and on and on. A simple question. Who's your favorite sports broadcaster? Sports broadcaster. I mean, I could think of a whole lot, but this is my six. The phone lines are open at eight five five two one two forty two twenty seven.
That's eight five five two one two forty two twenty seven. The phone lines are open. If you want to chime in, I'm going to ask Kiki about his favorite announcers as well. And then speaking of chiming in, what a shock, right? LeBron James has chimed in on everything involving Kaitlyn Clark, especially the criticism of Kaitlyn Clark. The wait is over.
That's right. Season five of the Kardashians is here. Just when you thought life couldn't get any faster, they're punching it into overdrive. Chris, Kourtney, Kim, Khloe, Kendall and Kylie are back and continue to defy expectations in all their endeavors.

So much going on in sports and the media space who's getting fired, demoted, who has contract.
It's crazy. And so I have to think about, man, we might see the last of the NBA on TNT next year. And it made me think about who's my favorite broadcasters?
I get it. That's a studio show. But if I have to think about people who are calling the games and I don't have an affinity for most people calling games, I could care less. One of my favorites is Vin Scully. I think there's a lot of people who grew up with Vin Scully.
The phone lines open right now. That's eight five five two one two forty two twenty seven. That's eight five five two one two forty two twenty seven. When I look at the whole top six list, if you missed it and you missed some of the calls and the examples that we used, you can hit rewind on the free Odyssey app and you never miss a minute or second of the show. And number six, I gave you Kevin Harlan. Number five, I gave you John Madden. Number four, David Cone. Number three, Howard Cosell. Number two, Clyde Frazier.
And as I mentioned, Vin Scully at number one. Now, this is obviously my personal list. You don't have to agree or disagree. There's nothing to agree or disagree with. It's like, who do you like?
It's your prerogative. Eight five five two one two forty two twenty seven. Anthony's calling from Wichita. You're on the JR Sport Brief Show. JR, my man, JR. The one I've scheduled my day around him.
Make sure I listen to his show, even if I don't get the call in all the time. Enjoy the top six list. So if you have a top six, if you had to make a top ten, let me ask this question. Where would you put this guy yet? He made this sound very famous. Nelly, where would you put Keith Jackson? Because he just made you look forward to watching college football Saturday.
That's all I have. And I want to get your opinion on where Keith Jackson would rank since you got a top six. You had a top ten. Where would he rank it?
OK, well, thank you, Anthony, for calling from Wichita. I think I'll answer that. Hickey, I don't never think I've been asked that one before. For a top ten, I like I stop.
There are a couple of missions that I had here. How about, you know, Hickey, I got to be careful. Let me just say this. For me personally, I wouldn't have Keith Jackson on on my top ten. I could probably think of, you know, four other announcers that I'd have before I got to keep. Sorry, Anthony from Wichita, just not my guy.
And a lot of this depends on where you live and where you grew up. And I think that plays a role in it as well. Hickey, do you have a favorite broadcaster, announcer? I do. I do.
I do. It is Gus Johnson. I'm glad I was going to say Gus.
I would have put Gus. He's got getting away from the cop speed. Like, come on. People got mad at him when he said it. But it's like it's funny. But go ahead.
No, I mean, you're exactly right. He I love the energy. I love like just like the woo after like a big playing, like whether it's buzzer beaters in college basketball or big plays in college football, like his energy is unmatched. I love it. Everything. He was doing NBA. I mean, yeah, he does everything. I love Gus Johnson.
Absolutely. Eight, seven, seven, three, three, seven, sixty six. Oh, Hickey, you're making me think I'm in New York. What am I doing? That's actually impressive. That's at least the first time that we've worked together. You've given out the wrong number with all the shows you're doing, all the different places you're working. It is pretty impressive to this point.
You keep everything in a, you know, aligned. Hey, I'll tell you this. I have never given the wrong number out here ever, ever until today. That's over now.
What, four years? This is your history. Everyone listening. Just write this down where you were. Yeah.
Don't call WFA and don't call him right now. All the Yankees on, I guess. Right. Yeah. So no top six calls for W.F.N. right now.
No, nobody's talking to anybody. Listen to Aaron Judge. Eight five five two one two forty two twenty seven. That's eight five five two one two forty two twenty seven. Wayne is here from Wisconsin. You're on the JR support show. Wayne, do me a favor. Give me one. One name. Bob Euchre.
OK. Classic. He's he was the I want to say I will say he's the opposite of Vince Scully, but he was always fun, fun and goofy. Why do you love him so much? Just growing up in Wisconsin, he always heard him and the radio and he just he just through the radio, you could almost see the game through his voice. That's why I liked him. OK, well, thank you, Wayne, for calling from Wisconsin.
Appreciate that. Eight five five two one two forty two twenty seven. Let's go to Los Angeles and talk to Scott.
Scott, you're on the JR support show. Go ahead, man. OK, so you should be ashamed of yourself for not bringing Chicky Baby into the conversation. Chicky Hearn.
Help me out for her. Can you see the door closed? White is out.
The air is cool and the butter's getting hard. Now, hold on a second. Can you do me a favor and tell me why I should be ashamed of myself for my own list? OK, because, you know, Chicky Hearn is the man that made up the term slam dunk. Hold on a second, Scott.
I'm going to try. Hold on a second. Hickey, what what what's so difficult about having a personal preference? Am I am I misunderstanding something here? I think maybe that's where the disconnect is. A little bit between the list and your list. OK, let's let's try again with Scott. Hey, Scott, does that does that make a little bit more sense here? This is not this is not God's list.
It's not, you know, an overall ranking. This is a list of my personal preferences. So if you like I don't know, you like cats? You got a cat at home? Well, first of all. Hickey, does he have a cat is a yes or no question? I guess not. More than one answer.
Well, let's try again. Scott, do you like cats or dogs? I love them both. OK, do you have a preference one over the other if you had to choose one? You're getting sneaky here.
Yeah, I'm not going to go with dogs. It's very simple. I have and I don't know where you've been. I've been sitting here talking for the past hour.
Did you just like tune in like five seconds ago? No, I heard I heard you go with Clyde. I love Clyde Frazier.
I love. No, you're not understanding. This list is my personal preference list.
This is not law. This is not a question about who the best sports broadcaster is of all time. This is a list of my I would say it again to it's two letters, two big capital letters, M and Y, my favorite sports broadcasters. So if I love Vince Scully and I could care less about Chick Hearn having grown up in the East.
Then that's your business. Scott, thank you for calling from L.A. I want to talk to idiots today. Eight five five two one two forty two twenty seven. Kyle is calling from North Carolina. You're on the J.R. sport. Reshow. Go ahead, Kyle. J.R., I got to go with Jim Nance.
Love it. It's unfortunate that he's dialing things down. He's the voice of golf and was the voice of college basketball.
I hear you, man. He's one of the best. Well, and he's he's diverse. I mean, he can do pretty much anything because he does. I mean, he does football. He can do college basketball. He does golf. He's I mean, he's everything that you want in an announcer. Do you have or have you had a preference of which sport that he's called?
Well, I go with golf since I like to play golf. OK. Not too shabby. Yeah. At least he's still rolling that one.
That's I guess that'll be the last thing he dumps off of his plate. That's right. I appreciate you. No problem, Kyle. Thank you for calling from North Carolina and actually understanding. What the hell we're talking about.
He was right on the money. Charlie is calling from Buffalo. You're on the J.R. sport. Reshow.
Charlie, who's your favorite announcer, man? Say, I can say to you is keep it rolling, baby. You're rolling. You're rolling them and you're rolling them well.
Great list. Let me just toss one at you. Red Barber. Oh, man, you're going you're going. I can't help it, man. That's that's where I come from. You're going you're going before my time. Mine, too.
Well, I would say mine, too. But I remember walking past my parents bedroom and seeing the red light of a camel and the waving smoke in the air and my dad listening to Red Barber on the radio. Yeah, classics. Hey, listen, there's one thing that we can't get back. And that's why it's so important is nostalgia, Charlie. There's nothing like it. And that's why somebody like Vince Scully is important to me. Vince Scully is. Go ahead.
I'm sorry. Go ahead. I would say, yeah, also the quality of the day, but by which they prepare and perform their work set of standards. So when you start laying the other guys out, you're going to find a little bit of bad. You're going to have a little bit of red barber in them. Hey, look, he's Walt Frazier with the color. Look, it's a better color commentary than Walt. He can't go. Hey, look, look.
Yes. Hey, look, man. David Cohen is speaking up right on in there. Yeah, he's thinking in there.
So again, the ability to take pictures and turn them into word pictures so that the world can see what I see. Thank you, Charlie. Appreciate you, Charlie, for calling from Buffalo. Yeah, look, it's not an easy job. And today in the world that we live in, so many more people are just they just throwing crap up against the wall. There's a lot of cookie cutter broadcasters.
And then if you're not a traditional broadcaster, you're just just trying to produce clickbait and hot takes and saying wild things to just maybe get some attention. I always say this. The cream rises to the top.
And if you ain't got too much substance, man, you don't last too long. It's the JR Sport Reshow here with you on the Infinity Sports Network eight five five two one two forty two twenty seven. The Western Conference Finals is underway. It's going on right now. The Dallas Mavericks. Minnesota Timberwolves, Minnesota leads 21 to 18. We'll talk about the game.
