I realize there is a separate thread for Vin Scully,but I'd like you folks to hear and see my personal thoughts..

[Roy Firestone]

I knew Vin for parts of 45 years. He wasnt just a friend of mine, he was a friend to sports, but in the bigger picture, a friend to all humanity. Take a few minutes and watch this essay I wrote late last night...and by all means share with people who might like this...thanks in advance for watching.

Roy you captured the majestic career of Vin Scully like no one else can. Thank you for that. He was one of a kind.

Roy -

this brought me to tears.  You captured everything so perfectly.  What a man.  What a man.

While I remember so many of his great baseball calls, I also remembered “the catch” call.  Many don’t remember that he called that game (1982 SF/DAL NFC Championship).  His “Buckner call” remains a favorite of mine as well.  Again, what a man.

Thanks for sharing this Roy!

I am scared to watch it I know you will make me cry.

Well done,  Roy.  A tribute as lovely as a late-inning scarifice fly.
