I enjoyed it as well and had many smiles while listening. Especially the "texting" story

It was also great to listen to all those past races that I had forgotten about.

Two thumbs up Steve

Default Steve Byk..........

That was one of the finest broadcasts in the history of radio. A very deserving tribute to one of the greats Bobby Frankel. I'm sitting there at work fighting back the tears, just wanting to give Dottie Ingordo a hug and shoulder. My heart goes out to her and John. Then I'm laughing at Sciacca's burgers and wine stories, very funny. Dutrow was amazing, and as always Haskin's historical stories of the great races, before an after they happen are always wonderful. Also loved hearing the race replays, with Durkin's terrific calls, brings chills. Steve, the whole tribute was just wonderful! It was a privelage to listen to such an amazing tribute, my thanks to you and the entire lineup.

Tremendous show Steve. Just listend to the replay at work. Was wondering if it's possible for your next best of show to put together some or all of the times you talked to Bobby?

RIP Bobby.

Hammer had some good stories about Frankel scratching over a pound.

He will be missed. The guy was a legend.
