ESPN had the video link to "How do Horses Breed" on their website for awhile. The music was SOOO perfect...absolutely hilarious.

I remember the I believe in Yonkers Song! I used to stay up late to watch Spencer and Stan on cable up near Boston. We knew we were never going to see that level of horse at Foxboro (Song : Trot, trot, trotting down at Foxboro, the track that always entertains) or when Rockingham was running, so it was as close as we got to good harness racing. No show from Suffolk, no Harvey pack on Sports Channel yet, these two guys were the only regular dose of racing when you could not get to the track. By the way, Suffolk had a great tag line on the jingle on their commercials: The most action two dollars can buy! Maybe not the truth after the races :):)

I grew up on Roosevelt and Yonkers too. Who could ever forget the days when Stan ("Good night all") or Spencer were out where they would bring in the Dock, that is, John Dockery, probably the worst sportscaster of all time. If Bergstein were out Spencer Ross would provide the expert commentary! I still believe that Jack E. Lee was one of the best race callers ever.

Jack E. Lee was great, some of his lines I remember are "and 'X' can see 'em all" and "IIIIIIIIIIIIIn Front!" It is a shame that he had a problem with alcohol which eventually got him fired from Roosevelt. Last I heard he was at Freehold, but I think he had problems there too. And I am sure you remember Bullet Bob Myers. A couple of years ago I went up to Saratoga for the weekend with Pmacdaddy where we did the flats during the day and went to Saratoga harness on Saturday night only to find that Bullet Bob Myers was the track announcer. He must be in his 70's or 80's but was still going.
