Next year, I'm gonna know what that shit means. Blame Keith Olbermann.

Shit, I'm trying to remember his home run call during SportsCenter. I don't know if he had one, or he just riffed on other announcer's famous calls. I think he was fond of "backbackback" (referring to the outfielder going back on a fly ball) followed by a "...he's not gonna get it." I do remember his favorite hockey call which was a very old fashioned "he puts the biscuit in the basket" for a goal.
And, of course, any player in any sport who was on a hot streak was "En Fuego!"
When the Giants changed the name of Candlestick Park because of corporate sponsorship, he publically flat-out refused to use the corporate name.

Our wings are not tired.
I'm back! Thankfully I did not get a shot in the butt. Doc gave me some samples of once a day big dose of antibiotics. Said it should be ok in 2-3 days. He said that it is not unusual to get the infection 7-10 days after the scrape when the scab is falling away. Particularly with road scrapes. Still hurts bad so I took another pain pill when I got home. Just one this time.
Now I think it would be irresponsible to work on people's computer systems while on drugs so catching up on ahemed television for me! And internet!
{{ChiKat}} Sorry that not working today was not an option.

Hope those pills fix you up right and proper, Laura.

It's gonna take a while, cause I'm such Blank Slate Girl, right? Maybe he and Dan can have a Henry Higgins bet, huh? Cause I won't say I know nothing, just almost. Rain bad. Camden Yards pretty?

That's a start. Though most agree that PNC Park in Pittsburgh is now the fairest at the ball.
But Camden Yards just sounds better.

Sounds like a good plan, Laura, the pills and the not-working and the catching up.

My stepdad and brother are fond of "flight of the enchanted tater" for home runs. t edit As am I.

"Kiss that one goodbye" is probably my favorite homerun call.
My favorite baseball announcing patter, though, i ssome random color commentary, I think during a Giants game, on the radio. I don't even know who the announcers were, because I don't pay that close attention, but I guess there were a lot of fly balls. After saying "and this one has a chance to drop" several times, one of the guys says "They all have a chance to drop, if you think about it, it's just a question of where they land." I don't know why, exactly but I love that - it's stuck with me for years.

Heh. That sounds like Giants announcer Jon Miller.
