"I'll tell you what's helped me my entire life. I look at baseball as a game. It's something where people can go out, enjoy and have fun. Nothing more."

"I've only been doing this fifty-four years. With a little experience, I might get better."

"I knew the profanity used up and down my street would not go over the air... So I trained myself to say 'Holy Cow' instead."

"My whole philosophy is to broadcast the way a fan would broadcast."

"Now, you tell me, if I have a day off during the baseball season, where do you think I'll spend it? The ballpark. I still love it. Always have, always will."

"It might be, it could be... it is! A home run!"

"You know they're not going to lose 162 consecutive games."

"I know it is the fans that are responsible for me being here. I've always tried in each and every broadcast to serve the fans to the best of my ability."

"When I die, I hope they don't cremate me 'cuz I'll burn forever."

"It's the fans that need spring training. You gotta get 'em interested. Wake 'em up and let 'em know that their season is coming, the good times are gonna roll."
