Quote:How old are you, Buzz? The affection for Harry may be generational. I had Jack Brickhouse as a kid. Harry is a childhood touchstone for a lot of people, but not me. I didn't mind Harry in his heyday because then, before he became an asshole, Stone added real value. Harry was entertaining in his way, but in my opinion, rather bad at the job.52 years old... and totally wrong about Neil Cotts. It was the Yankees that signed him not the Braves. Pretty sure WBBM misled me about that. Yeah, that's the ticket. Also, yes, I grew up with Brickhouse and he was the man for all seasons and always will be in my book along with the Good Kid and Vince Lloyd. Big Steve Stone fan. Liked Harry Caray as a Sox guy but not so much with the Samurai as a form of ritual suicide. Though I suppose plunging through glass coffee tables unto death might make a pretty hilarious YouTube video set to the right music.
