Sorry to see him go. I always think of the Miracle in Richfield season with him, Campy Russell, Footsie Walker, and Jim Chones. He tends to repeat himself, but he provides accurate analysis of the offensive and defensive schemes the teams use.

FYI it's an April Fool's joke that happens every single year for as long as this forum has been in existence. And I think you might be the only person not in on it.

Someday it will be true, and I really really hope when AC does announce his retirement for real, that he does it on April 1st. It would be a great troll.

Aww man lol got me. It's messed up to have Brad sit in on him.

God damn.....get rid of april fools already please.

One of these days it will be true. But be leery about this particular announcement coming on April 1st. And I think it's safe to assume they'd talk about any such announcement on the broadcast and the team website?
