LOL, The Dodgers announcer just made fun of the Denver Thuggets
He said something along the lines of, "Wow, outside of the circus have you ever seen guys with more tattoos than those Denver players?" "There must not be a drop of ink left in Denver"

Vin Scully is the best in the biz, a living legend
Vincent Edward Scully (born November 29, 1927) is an American sportscaster, known primarily as the play-by-play voice of the Brooklyn and Los Angeles Dodgers baseball team. His 60-year tenure with the Dodgers (1950-present) is the longest of any broadcaster with a single club in professional sports history, and he is second only to Tommy Lasorda in terms of length of years with the Dodgers organization in any capacity (Lasorda joined the team a year before Scully). Named California Sportscaster of the Year twenty-eight times, he received the Ford Frick Award from the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1982, and was honored with a Life Achievement Emmy Award for sportscasting and induction into the Radio Hall of Fame in 1995. He was named Broadcaster of the Century by the American Sportscasters Association (ASA) in 2000. In 2009, the ASA named him the top sportscaster of all-time on its list of the Top 50.

I was listening to a Dodger game recently and hearing Scully's voice made me feel like a kid again, I grew up as a Dodger fan.
I grew up listening to Chick Hearn and Vin Scully, I was incredibly lucky.
