It would be the game sent on some random satellite channel. So ESPN's wednesday night game would come through on a completely different satellite than the one regular ESPN was on. And sometimes it would just be the picture and stadium sounds, no announcers and, many times, no commercials. They would often have the cameras on way before gametime and you could watch the crowd fill in and see all of the stuff that happened before the game. You could also see what the cameramen were looking at before games, mostly buxom chippiesFred's Brimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06689859663838105360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36360371.post-39473447795318542742010-04-29T11:34:59.360-07:002010-04-29T11:34:59.360-07:00@dsheridan88: There is something that is pathetic-...@dsheridan88: There is something that is pathetic-funny, however, when you're trying to figure out what is going on in the game, and Charley and Rick are just giggling, so you have no other choice (if radio is your only option) but to listen to the crowd noise to guess the action.<br /><br />Sometimes I think those two bring up feathers up to the broadcast booth and just start tickling each other when the game gets slow.Steve Saxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00930320282262607468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36360371.post-5303527574128762512010-04-29T11:07:34.240-07:002010-04-29T11:07:34.240-07:00Something I always post in hopes someone will run ...Something I always post in hopes someone will run with it:<br />Why can't they make Vin's TV cast available at the stadium on radio? They do it at the gym with low powered signals...it would be a fitting tribute, and I bet you would hear tons of fans with radios. <br /><br />TWO:DO NOT MOVE STEINER BACK TO TV!!!!<br />He is flat out horrible. Yeah, I know, "No one is Vin." THat doesn't mean you have to get someone with the exact opposite approach to everything that makes us love Vin. He anticipates action, often wrongly, won't stop incessant jabbering on things unrelated to the game, and laughs at his own stupid jokes, often for minutes at a time. Give a younger guy a shot, someone who knows they are following a legend. Don't forget...that is how Vin started.dsheridan88https://www.blogger.com/profile/00025841376587320978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36360371.post-65399232996428956882010-04-29T05:56:08.547-07:002010-04-29T05:56:08.547-07:00@Sax: Nope.

He just celebrated his 60th Anniversary (60 years: 1950-2010), but this is the beginning of his 61st season.<br /><br />Think of it like birthdays.

Monday can do those games on the radio alone.<br /><br />Poor Jerry Reuss, a significant part of Dodger history, got let go to make room for this schmuck. Interestingly enough, his name (but not his bio) is still at the bottom of the Dodgers' broadcasters page. (The page hasn't been updated since the beginning of the 09 season.)Josh S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06838578298386299922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36360371.post-361459927557704622010-04-28T18:43:41.030-07:002010-04-28T18:43:41.030-07:00Dude looks like Jon Favreau's lil brother.Dude looks like Jon Favreau's lil brother.Small Sample Sizehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18057068838518398589noreply@blogger.com
