Default Imbriale: Sounding VERY Good..

Don't know if others feel this way and sense it, but John Imbriale is calling the Big A races better than he ever has... He sounds sharp and concise and confident with more enthusiasm than he had before his brief 'retirement'. He's technically sound and you get the info without the forced drama.

Oh I noticed it. He seems to be even better than before.

He is sharp in my opinion and easy to listen to.

Steve,

John Imbriale is a class act, at least he was to me every time I've met him up at the SPA. Miss him on the show too. He sounds great !!...Very Entusiastic as well. I would much rather have John than many of the other announcers aroound the country.

Imbriale is awful. If you can't have Durkin then at least bring in Vic Stauffer. He is "STRAIGHT AND STRONG".

Well, you saw how quick everyone scurried to hire Stauffer after he didn't get the GP gig back..

That's because they have to actually pay him what he is worth, it's like shopping at Bloomingdales when NYRA prefers to go to Wal-Mart.
