I like Pat more than Len, but what it comes down to is that Keith Moreland's voice is like nails on a chalkboard to me.

But Brenly will always be my favorite. He tells it how it is, good times or bad.[/QUOTE]

thats why i love listening to him

Dewey, to be fair, Hughes > Kasper doesn't mean much, because Hughes is awesome and is > than about everyone else out there. A few exceptions.

I like Len, but he is no Pat Hughes.

Couldn't agree more. :hi5:

The depth of his knowledge about the game of baseball never ceases to amaze me.

I would take Len over Hawk any day of the week.

8+ years ago, I grew tired of Hawk. He is a career .234 hitter who is an insane homer for the Sox, was the worst GM in the history of sports, has the most ridiculous sayings that barely make sense, and goes on and on about players from the 50s/60s/70s all game long. NO ONE GIVES A FLYING **** ABOUT SOME BUM YOU PLAYED WITH DURING 1963!

Yes, I hate Hawk and envy Cubs fans. Len and Stone would be the ideal situation.

This is one of the most solid posts that I've ever read on CCS. In my opinion, of course. :hi5:

Yeah I always thought I would be able to listen to the radio again with Santo passing away.... I was wrong. Moreland is so freaking bad.

Hughes is the best of all of them, but I really like Len and Bob.

Yeah, I also wasn't super pleased with Brenly after hearing about what he said. But I guess we just have to take it with a grain of salt because it was his job to hate all other teams.

And most importantly is not what he said back in '01, but what he says now. And I agree with about 95% of what he says now.

I definitely miss Harry, though. Him singing the stretch is probably one of those childhood memories that I'll love until the day I die.

Len Kasper sounds like his parents were Kermit The Frog and Marvin The Martian.

I think Len is pretty good overall. I think Brenly is pretty awesome, though. I like how he tells it how it is, including calling out players for playing dumb (like Soriana not running hard and missing doubles, etc). Cracks me up when the Cubs blow a play and you hear him scoff in the background. I also like the insight he gives into the game and how teams work, without sounding annoying like Joe Morgan. He's informative, but not tedious like Orel Hershiser can be.

Couldn't stand Len and Bob the first year in 2005 but they got much better in the second year all the way to the present.

I like them both a lot now and I hope they stay around for a long time.
