November 20, 200421 yr I'm really sorry to see Len go, but I am proud as hell of him, and I wish him all the success in the world. As for what the Marlins do now though, I think they have to make Boog the TV guy, or put DVH on the tv and make Boog the lead radio guy. If not then someone will take Boog from us too. He's too good to be a "#2" guy. They took O'Brien, they took Kasper- we've got to hang on to Boog!!
November 20, 200421 yr I think Jon will end up on the TV side with us next season and the radio side will get Charlie Slowes or Paul Olden.
November 20, 200421 yr There's a reason that Boog is on the radio. Have you ever SEEN the man? 618498[/snapback] Looks don't matter on sports TV...ever seen the Braves crew? Plus Boog doesn't break cameras...a big plus for TV!
November 20, 200421 yr They don't matter, but it doesn't help if you look like Conan O'Brien without the height, bouncy hair, Harvard degree, or flambouyant personality.
November 20, 200421 yr I'll take HOF DVH anyday over the self-centered Boog. Boog is pretty good but he will drive Tommy nuts. Boog is not a natural team player as Len was and DVH is. Boog cares only about Jon Sciambi.

November 20, 200421 yr They don't matter, but it doesn't help if you look like Conan O'Brien without the height, bouncy hair, Harvard degree, or flambouyant personality. 618503[/snapback] you were right until you got to the personality...
November 20, 200421 yr I'd prefer DVH rather than Boog, but for whatever reason a lot of folks would rather have Boog on TV.

I heard Boog with Joe Angel and the first two seasons with Dave Van Horne. He was an antagonist. Did not try to help. (End of last season he did try successfully to interact with DVH. Believe he learned that he could learn from DVH). Boog IMO was upset that he didn't get picked for the Mets job last year. But he didn't understand that, unlike Len, he still has not earned that kind of promotion.
November 21, 200421 yr Boog has been up and coming for so long. First on WQAM's Panthers pregame, then WQAM's Marlins pregame, finally as WQAM's Marlins Analyst.
