What do Vin Scully, Bob Costas, Al Michaels, Marty Brennaman, and, hell, Shannon Sharpe think as they listen to World Series?

@MurrowNYC He was awesome. He, Ernie Harwell, Vin Scully, Harry Kalas and Marty Brennaman are my all-time favorites.

Good to see Cincinnati native "Thom" Brennaman is calling random NFL games. Maybe it's not new, but I hadn't noticed before. Marty's boy!

Wow Thom Brennaman sure turned out cute. Last time I saw him I was in Cinci and listening to his dad, the famous Marty B. (Reds Baseball)
