Good for you, Vin

Outstanding demonstration of longevity. Plus you once had the class to risk your job by refusing to say “damn” on the air.

Tonight, my Boston Red Soxs will take on the Dodgers. Both teams are the most improved MLB teams of the year 2013, IMHO.

I bet even Mr. Scully is surprised at his tenure at the mike.

He is the best!

Huge Dodgr fan here, but seldom with an opportunity to hear radio broadcasts. How does Charley Steiner compare with Vin?

That is awesome! I listened to Vin Scully when I was a tyke in Phoenix, Az as a child (62-71) as the Dodgers were my favorite team.

Used to listen to Dodger games covered up with blankets, so my parents could not hear, so I could listen to the games.

Shucks, I am 59 years old, he must be, whatever? Best announcer ever.

Growing up outside Philly and a Phils fan since birth, Harry Kalas is my alltime favorite announcer. Vin Scully is second.

Hall of Fame broadcaster Vin Scully, an icon in American sports history, will return to the Dodger broadcast booth for an unprecedented 65th season in 2014, it was announced. Scully will again call all Dodger home games and road games in California and Arizona.

65 seasons broadcasting for the Dodgers... incredible!!

Vin Scully is the Gold Standard of broadcasters... nobody calls a baseball game better than Vin, IMHO.

May Mr. Scully continue to enjoy excellent health and a long, productive life. :-)
