However, he gets very high marks from me. The guy takes his job very seriously and is highly competent. Besides being a true racing fan and a true horseplayer, he's one guy that really has a lot of knowledge about the history of the game.

He's one of the few guys in that profession who never leaves you wondering 'Did he find the sport, or did the sport find him?'

I listened to him and Kurt Hoover together A LOT growing up (Fox Sports West shows) and there is really not a pair I find more enjoyable than those two.

I think the best HRTV on-air people are clearly superior to the best TVG on-air people.
