Re: Dan Dickerson

I was listening to Dickerson and Scales last night. When I tuned in, they were coming out of a commercial break and I waited to hear the score of the game. And waited and waited and waited. Finally, Dickerson started to give the score, but was interrupted by a ball that was put in play. He described...

Re: Ron Cameron

I was watching the Reds and Brewers on Amazon Prime last night, and Elly De La Cruz of the Reds hit an exciting inside-the-park home run. That reminded me of Kurt's classic quip about De La Cruz: "It's Elly, like Elly May Clampett on The Beverly Hillbillies ." I hope Kurt found someone new to argue ...

Re: Ron Cameron

I've been using Uncle Charley on My Three Sons to fill in the void left by Ron's departure. As wonderfully played by the crusty old William Demarest, his blunt, goofy comments often crack me up. This morning, Charley was watching Fred MacMurray try to teach his fiance Beverly Garland how to golf, an...

Re: Dan Dickerson

Interesting listening to DD with Andy, where it sounds more like a back and forth conversation. I've heard Bobby get cut off on several occasions "per" game when he rambles on. Dan goes right to a ground ball out or pop up in quick fashion in those instances even though its a routine out. Who is Bo...

Re: Ron Cameron

Perhaps I have asked this before, but what are the chances that Ron has a storage unit somewhere, filled with all of his sports memorabilia? Seems like something Ron would do, and if it does exist, it would be a shame for whatever is in there to end up in a dumpster, if rent on the locker goes unpa...

Re: Detroit Tigers 2024

It looks like a season similar to the current Red Wings season—stay above .500 for the first time in years, and hang out on the outer edge of the playoffs. On the way to breakfast this morning, the guys on 97.1 were being very realistic about this team's problems. Then I picked up the Detroit News ,...

Re: Detroit Tigers 2024

This team's really living on the edge. 6-2 but only one win by a starter. Their three-headed batting coach isn't doing any better this year than last year. Wonder how soon they give Justyn-Henry Malloy a chance? He's hitting .333 at Toledo. In a season's worth of games at Toledo (151), he's hit 24 h...

Re: A Letter to Dan Miller

Dan's employment as the Lions PBP man is a major journalistic conflict of interest. In principle, I agree. But he's able to pull it off, I think because most of the time he sounds like a reporter, except when he's getting very excited during a football broadcast. His experience with national broadc...

Re: Ron Cameron

Ron once said that "every drunk in Detroit" was in the centerfield bleachers at Tiger Stadium.

After watching some of Fox 2's pre-game Opening Day coverage, I'd say that "every drunk in Detroit" is being interviewed today outside of Comerica Park.

Re: A Letter to Dan Miller

In my lifetime I’ve had the pleasure of watching some of the greats cover sports- Eli, Don, Bernie. I even have faint memories of Al Ackerman. That being said, Dan is the greatest. Always enjoyed watching his sportscasts and think he does a great job with the Lions! Dan's very good. He can flex his...
