This is 1 thing i can agree with u on BBB
however, Durkin was 1 of the best ever & we have him to thank for several great calls!! I watched the real quiet victory gallop bmont race this morn & his call of that race was epic!! Poor guy jus held onto his craft a little to long. He must have bumped into Jeter & Jeter convinced him it was time to call it quits.lol
I think he's been pondering this move since he butchered the "Mine That Bird" derby call.....
My questions for the guys itt is this...
Does Durkin still call the Belmont Stakes for the in house simulcast feed? I know Colmus has it for the NBC coverage...
Would be epic if CC gets to the Belmont with the TC on the line & Durkin gets to call a TC winner in his final Belmont.
Second question, if the TC was on the line at the Belmont, would u rather here Durkin give 1 final call since he's had to call 7 triple crown failures & this would b his last chance to do so, or have Larry Colmus call it?
