Been a rough night for the TBS production. Just imagine if Stockton were doing PBP.


And a strike called on Sherbert...


That probably happened at home. I just assume Dick Stockton does play by play for whatever is on his television at the moment.

I really like the organ in Pittsburgh. It's quite distinctive. Has kind of a harpsichord sound to it, almost.
