Will miss Ayers calling. A good guy who deserves more recognition than the county fairs. Maybe some air time at the jug since he lives close.

What ever happen to James Witherite? I loved how he pronounces some of the French or Candian drivers.

I was defending you, like you had an excuse (for stupidity and ignorance), and BLAMING it on the midget fatso dictator with da snazy flattop.   :P

Fine, sheesh, take full responsibility for it on your own.   ;D

The very best of success to Kenny, may he bring his very strong convictions on cheaters into his race calls, as he expounds in his Twitter feed.   tmbz1

Being a NYC guy, I always liked George Anthony (BigY) and Ken Warkentin (BigM), and Mohawk's Ken Middleton - great eyes on him, he's called out trotters switching to a pacing gate seconds before the wire that led to Dq's, and a soft, beautiful voice, kind of hypnotic.

Some of the best race calls in History, T-bred though, but everyone tried to load up there voice for ZENYATTA!

And if Chic Anderson's Belmont Stakes call of Secretariat (and Sham) doesn't give you chills 50 years later, "...Moving like a tremendous machine...."........you might be comatose or dead!   ;D

Sam McKee had all the right tools and was easy on the ears.I  don't think I ever heard Sam make wrong or  inconsistent blunders. He was the only announcer that I've ever seen go to the paddock and ask a driver or trainer for the correct pronunciation of their name if it looked like a tricky one.

I like Sam as an announcer also. Funny, I had a horse few years a current announcer always pronounced it's name wrong.  I can see Sam taking the time to get the horse's name right. He seemed like a  very dedicated and down to earth person.

Thus far, I find his calling boring. However, I do hope as he gets more comfortable, he will be better.

Agree, he could leave out "second turn", get more excited on and say final turn / stretch bs and action lacked in his first race stretch call Wednesday, this track don't exactly have fans they have gamblers who could tell by the first half fractions if they can rip up tickets or have a shot. 

My ex-fiance is hovering over the bed, I asked what's up, she said you just called a race, I asked her who won and she didn't know.  Dumb bitch! ;D

How much does the job pay?

Good question, found this and multiple listings for the job, but no salary just unreasonably low estimates when listed......so I imagine it was negotiated and hopefully moving expense costs too!  tmbz1
