One of the greatest play-by-play men of all time.

Respect.

I’m with Vin. Permanently means forever...not a few weeks or months.

I’d do it, but I’m watching Dirty Harry followed my Magnum Force today.

I’ll never watch the NFL again.

the NFL is on fire, but the owners and particularly Goodell are so blind and entitled, they can’t see their business burning down around them.

No one with any understanding of sports in America would ever say a word against Vin Scully. I've been a Giants fan since childhood, and Scully is the one thing I've always admired about the Dodgers. The man is a legend.

There was never anyone who was even in his league. Vin Scully was by far the greatest.

This will leave a mark.

I truly dislike that people have made this about veterans. It’s about the United States of America and ALL it stood for and given it’s citizens.

Millions have died at home while building this great country. Millions have sacrificed to build it to the greatest country in the history of the world. Limiting the talk to veterans means the sentiment doesn’t reach those people’s families and heritage
