Let the deceased Rest In Peace. Sam was a great caller, and enthusiastic about the sort. Wasn't just a job for Sam.

Calling the wrong horse, mixing up names, missing really important things going on, he must have been really nervous for the big night and being on Fox. He was unusually terrible

He was brutal last night. Screaming when he did get one right and really f'ing up . I miss Sam, I miss Bothe, anyone but Ken. He stinks in my opinion

Completely irresponsible to call a horse "gone" when opening up 3 then 4 lengths with 3/16th's of a mile to go, only to start screaming in panic as the horse gets run over easily before the wire. He has done this before, but to do it on the sports biggest stage, in a huge race, speaks volumes for the "talent" calling races in this sport.

Sam was always the best.  Called a good clean race and got excited when it was big money or prestigious.  Not like Roger calling a 6 claimer like the final of the LBJ.
