Tracy Jones Makes On Air Offer To Reds
I recorded Tracy Jones yesterday. I just heard the end of his show. He said he is putting his name out there. Before signing off he said he would take a three year contract at $1500 a game to announce with Marty.

Let's just hope they don't accept.

Re: Tracy Jones Makes On Air Offer To Reds
Not enough! Jones would have to give me $3000 a game to listen to him.

Re: Tracy Jones Makes On Air Offer To Reds
I just did the math, not including spring training, that's $243,000 to be the Reds announcer. Not a bad deal for him. For us, no deal.

Re: Tracy Jones Makes On Air Offer To Reds
Tracy Jones thinks very highly of himself, doesn't he?
Too bad he is in the minority |

Re: Tracy Jones Makes On Air Offer To Reds
I'll make an offer to the Reds also and I'll come in at a lower price than that.

I'm quite happy that he is in the minority. Otherwise, there might be a chance the Reds would accept his offer. And while you can watch tv with the sound turned off, it's harder to listen to the radio with the sound turned off. |

Re: Tracy Jones Makes On Air Offer To Reds
Any chance of Paul O'Neil? He sounded great doing Yankee games and, he played the game.

Re: Tracy Jones Makes On Air Offer To Reds
He said earlier this year that Steve is getting between $1250 - $1500 a game. I like Tracey and I hope he is in the booth with Marty next year. I know I am in the minority, but I don't care.

Re: Tracy Jones Makes On Air Offer To Reds
Why don't you guys like the tracer? I'd love it if he got the job. I don't really care if his opinions are right or not, at least he's entertaining. That's all I want. You never learn anything interesting anyway from a radio broadcast.
I personally wish Rod got the job. I'd listen to every game if they signed him. |

 I would like to see Tracy get the job also. We would get to hear him 6-7 days a week instead of 2-3.

I'll take $500/game to work with Marty - and Tracy can pay me $1500 to listen to me.

I'll do it for free...too bad the previous regime isn't still here or I'd be a front runner for sure.
