Why Durkin will always be a ***

Durkin is the best in the business, but he goes over the top more and more these days...think he's on his last legs as an announcer.

Question is, who will replace him? Stauffer? I know everyone here loves Denman, but I can't stand him...

Durkin can get annoying, but he is still the guy I want behind the mike for a big race like the Kentucky Derby or the BC Classic. He just adds that extra something.
If I EVER have to listen Vic Stauffer call a big race like this I'll puke. The guy is flat-out TERRIBLE. I will seriously watch the race with the volume turned down if this guy is calling the race. He is an absolute disgrace.
Durkin's call today was definitely over the top, but there is, in my opinion, nobody better than him in the game right now.
