Larry Colmus
 
This is the guy for the Churchill Downs announcer job. Clear, concise, and accurate calls without any foreign accent!

Never heard of him.

cowgirlintexas 11-21-2008 08:37 PM
Me either...but thats not saying much :D

Wow, you guys and gals need to watch some races. Colmus is all over the place. Gulfstream, Monmouth, Suffolk, and Meadowlands.

I even wonder why he would want the CD job. Seems like he has a pretty sweet rotation of tracks.

I am not sure that those 3 should be in the same sentence as Churchill.

I am sorry, I really cant help myself. I will find some where else to post, you have my word.


Nothing like being a man of your word.....

It is a shocker.

The funniest thing was that during the contest he had the audacity to question whether or not you were honorable.

This post has obviously changed directions. I want Larry Colmus as the announcer at Churchill Downs! The Derby does not need to be called by some arrogant Australian!

cowgirlintexas 11-21-2008 10:03 PM
Beware of any poster with the word "fan" in their name;)

Can you spell Larry another way than L-A-R-R-Y? OK, Collmus has 2 Ls. I still believe he is better than the previous options.

It doesnt matter who gets the job at CD, i'll still be hearing Tom Durkin call the Derby.
