I happen to like Collmus and think he does an excellent job but even as 2nd best he's not even in the same category as Durkin.

2nd best is a three way tie between denman, Dooley, and Vic

Frank M is third

I'm not sure he would be interested in a year round job with his NASCAR involvement...

I fully agree with you on Becker, but donot think he would be interested in such a long term job as i believe he only wanted the Keeneland job before. Hope i am wrong. Like his style and calls alot , with no BS.

That would make Mirahmadi fifth, not third, unless high school math has disintegrated beyond all recognition.

Not true at all. Two players tied for fourth; there is no fifth. We then go to those tied for sixth. Then there is no seventh; we go straight to 11th.

Sometimes, I bleed.

I feel your pain Peter.

I once had a horseplayer say this to me. Vic, IMO you are the 2nd best announcer that ever lived. Wow that's high praise. I said. Just curious. Who do you think is best? He said it's a 13,848 way tie for first.
