- told a nice yarn about freddie freeman and his father

- gave the swedish translation for "uggla"

- after a chipper homer: "chipper jones has played with 363 different teammates as a brave. of course, in atlanta, 363 is known as the number of wins for the great warren spahn"

the flip side of this vin scully trip is he'd only get to call the friday night game because fox and espn will inflict joe buck and friends on us for the national games saturday and sunday

[As Kotsay fans, following talk of his past as a six-year-old BMX champ] "He is a far cry from the Kotsay of years ago. I can tell you that."

"I have thoroughly enjoyed the excitement of this season, and there is no way I could leave this truly remarkable team and our great fans," Scully said. "With my wife Sandi's blessing, I've decided I'd like to come back and do it again next season. I love what the new ownership has brought to the team, and the energy provided by the fans, who have packed renovated Dodger Stadium. It reminds me that other than being home with my family, there is no place else I'd rather be."

watching the Dodger Giants game.

9/25/2013

they play a song up here, it's a very catchy son "Bye-Bye, Baby!" which was the home run call by Russ Hodges who was the voice of the New York Giants who broadcast the Bobby Thomson home run and went almost hysterical when Booby's home run beat the Dodgers in the Playoff and then, of course. Russ came out and was a tremendous favorite here and while they were playing that song i couldn't help but think...i remember standing in Russ Hodges kitchen with Ernie Harwell and the three of us were singing "Harmony". Never thought about it really until just right now listening to "Bye-Bye, Baby!" and of course Russ will never be forgotten up here or in New York as well.

Bee OK, Thursday, 26 September 2013 05:17 (ten years ago) link

came across thie tonight:
http://www.insidesocal.com/tomhoffarth/2013/09/29/q-and-a-scully-on-mccain-champange-and-really-how-can-you-complain-about-wanting-to-come-back/

Q: Speaking of more nonsense, what about the reaction to the Dodgers players who jumped into the pool in Arizona?
A: I’ll be honest: I sat in the booth and watched after they won. I had no knowledge about it until people told me, and I didn’t give it a thought. The park was empty. What’s the difference?
The thing that really concerned me was when Senator McCain made his remarks about it. With all the troubles going on in this world, where we are relying on his judgment and ability to maintain relationships, staying calm . . . the only thing I could think of was as a politician forever trying to please his constituents, perhaps he responded so he could say, ‘See, I’m one of you. I’m mad too.’ It still concerned me that a man of such high authority and overwhelming responsibilities in this mad-house world could possibly make the statement he made. It was shocking. If that’s his best judgment, to say that (via Twitter), then I’m really scared.

Bee OK, Saturday, 5 October 2013 06:22 (ten years ago) link

I hafta say McCain has scared me more previously.
