Of course this is all subjective but I notice that most of the people saying he is the best are from the west coast. Every home town announcer is the favorite because that's what you're used to hearing. People here (Cleveland) say Tom Hamilton is the best and Joe Tait for baskets. But I do not like Hamilton at all. Tait was good imo. Many of these guys are so obviously contrived as they try to come up with their catch phrases. That's what bugs me. I can see what some of you are saying about Vin as he does seem to go over the top at times.

Listening to an old man talk to himself for three hours is not my idea of fun.

All of you with the MLB package on dtv know that you can pick either teams broadcaster for any game. The dodgers are the only opposing team broadcast I will watch when I watch the braves

I am a big fan of Vin, Mccarver on the other hand is the worst guy to have ever done baseball in my opinion, so glad he is gone after this year!

He's not for everybody, but for those who grew up with him, he's nostalgic.

Exactly how I feel. Listening to him do a game brings good feelings every time. Like a bowl of soup and warm bread on a rainy day. Will be really sad when he quits or dies. Until then listen every time I can.

I am sorry fellas, this guy is bad. Tries to be too cute, plus some of the stats he gives are not correct.

Bad Bad Bad

Please SHUT UP

He is on a brain numbing roll right now

He actually said at a crucial time in the game "Let's see if the Price is Right"

Really?
