Favorite George Grande and Chris Welsh quotes!

[redsrule2500]

Since we are about to be hearing them on a daily basis, I thought it would be fun to get a few of their quotes exposed before it begins.

Chris: "He was really boot-scootin' it down the line"

George: "The Redlegs were on the smiling side of the scoreboard"

[Superdude]

"velocitized"!

[cumberlandreds]

Getem'on,getem' over,getem in... George

I thought this was supposed to be favorite quotes?

My one unique favorite is Grande's call "Oh it hit him in the throat, I think! And a run will score!"

The nightly ones are whenever Grande reads off all the winning lottery numbers.

"Tonight's Pick 3 winners ... five seven eight, five seven eight. Pick 4 winners eight five two one, eight five two one ... etc."

And then followed up with "Hope you have a winner!"

I am shocked this has been mentioned already.

"A solo homer is sometimes a rally killer."-Welsh

I still have no idea how you kill a rally that hasn't even started.

lol to be fair, I'm fairly certain Reds management made him do that. He originally started calling it by the official name, until later on when I'm sure complaints came in about family programming. Since the Reds can't help the commercials or programming of FSN, they at least could censor their personal broadcast of the word. My take at least

According to GG, foul balls are either "slapped" or "nubbed."

Also, he once used the turn of phrase "roller coaster ride" thrice in the same sentence.

Of course, "hi, hello, and welcome" and "see you at the ballpark" are staples.

Thom has used the same phrase when pimping the show.

You really need to stop going to games.

Not until the Reds put me on the payroll to do just that

I'll be at Wednesday's and Friday's games, so beware...

According to GG, foul balls are either "slapped" or "nubbed."

And any fly ball is a "bloop."

or "back, back, back to the warning track - this one will stay in the ballpark" (even though its 20 feet shy)
