    on a track ???

    I guess he really thinks that wrestling is for real and not fake.

    I think EAMS and the SAS would like to get rid of him but
    they are afraid to.
    He probably has the largest family of any body, I cant count all
    the BRUTHERS he has, every body he talks to is his BRUTHER,
    but man they sure do look different.

    I love racing but if I had only one track to go to and he was
    the announcer, I would have to stay home.

    I guess that's what they mean by TO EACH HIS OWN !!!

    Don't forget about the DOG IN HEAT either.

    GOOD DAY ...
    Well, then you must not be redneck enough!

    Ole Deewayne makes me feel Im at a family gathering! lol

      Best announcer in my area is Mike Norris and he's far from calm. To each their own.

        Announcing isn't easy.

        I've learned to just do my thing, dont over modulate, and get the information out when the cars are at an idle or before they hit the track.

        It's a simple thing really.

          Johnny Gibson is the greatest announcer on dirt imo.. Dustin Jarrett James Essex Blake Anderson and mike norris are all right there with him.

            I couldn’t agree with you more. If your at the track you can’t hear the announcing once the racing begins. If your not on radio or tv best stay quiet cause only people in the both would hear. ...A little excitement from the announcer is perfectly fine. They are a fan too. But the screaming, continuous screaming, these ridiculous sayings, trying to be a comedian once every minute, it’s horrid. Announcers doing all that, it’s for their own ego. Majority of fans hate it.

            Jarrett and Essex is some favorites of mine as well. But they to have went overboard at times. And “Race of the year!” “Oh my!” and “OHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!” , it’s getting to be a little much.

                So if it isn't easy, how is it simple?

                I'm in agreement with you on the " isn't easy part"
                Where is the move over flag when you need it?????

                    I second the point of Mr. Chris, this stuff is not always easy. You can get skewered for being loud or too quiet. I listen to the tapes I have of the late and very great Steve Evans, he was unreal.
