RIP Vin Scully

Eh, St Louis, and Chicago are pretty big baseball cities. Part of what hurts it in the mid west I think is the lack of a salary cap. Other pro sports don’t have such a disparity and spend and costal city teams tend to have more money.

Have to agree with you on the salary cap thing, that definitely makes sense. I think demographics are probably a factor in it too if I had to guess, but the trend seems to extend back as far as anyone can tell.

Either way, in my world the tier list for sports has always been:

1.) College football/NFL
2-8.) ehhhh…
9.) College basketball I guess?
10.) Everything else

I flipped on the TV the other night and FoxSports was showing the 1994 Brickyard (first race). My oh my what it was like to hear Bob Jenkins again. If you are a race fan, he may have been your Vin Scully. I kept the race on the in the background just to hear him.

Being a Reds fan, it's rough listening to the guys we've had, even when we've been good in recent years.

I enjoyed the Braves' broadcast team in the early to mid-90's. I delivered pizzas and preferred any sports to music. Listened to Alabama football and basketball. I listened to a lot of Tennessee and Georgia broadcasts when living in those states. Larry Munson was entertaining. I was listening to the UGA-UT game when he made the hobnail boot comment. I swear Tennessee's broadcast team was wasted by half time.
