Re: Vin Scully retiring after 2010 season

As much as I hate the Dodgers, i love Vin Scully. He's been around as long as I have (heck, he was born more than 20 years before me), and that voice and technique has been heard by me since I first embraced baseball. No one can go on forever, it's a proven fact that 10 of 10 die, but I'll miss him so much. I find myself tuning into the Dodger broadcasts when they're home on XM or watching them on the EI package and just listening--even though I hate the Dodgers.

It won't be baseball season without Scully. Or Joe or Waite Hoyt or even Marty. We're in for a long dry spell after that. It won't be the same.
