I couldn't take Johnson's yelling during a race. Everytime Colmus was calling the Derby on NBC you could not hear him because Johnson was yelling in the background.
I was a big fan of Harry Henson @ Hollywood Park back in the day and Dave Johnson was good when he called at Santa Anita. I also think Vic was good and deserve a shot at a top tier track.

I'm going to miss Collmus from Monmouth. It's a great move for him and Churchill.
For the record, I love Dooley too. Eventually the day will come when Durkin hangs it up, I would love to see Dooley become the voice of NYRA.

To each his own, I guess I am in the minority when it comes to Mark Johnson because I thought he was very good. I really enjoyed his calls.

I'm one, that like with commentating/announcingin any sport, I want a guy that shows a little emotion and difference of tone in his calling.
I don't necessarily want Gus Johnson overkill, but Kevin Harlan is so awesome whennhe gets amped up. Same for calling horse races. I love Durkin because of his ability to bring some emotion and tone into his calls. Its also why I think Denman is overrated. He's not bad, but I like Durkin better for the reasons stated. Collmus is pretty good and wish him well. Blasphemy to most people, but I love Paul Allen's race calls at CBY. A lot of people can't stand him, I love his calls. I'm with a lot of people that I hope Vic gets the Monmouth gig if he wants it. Who calls the summer weekend races at Gulfstream?
