Alan Ashby NOT returning

[nolanryan5714]

Hey all,

I was more than a bit upset to hear of Ash's fate as the color man in the radio booth.

Maybe you disagree with me, but I think the move was tacky and very poorly done. Ash did a great job, IMO, and to be dissed by a couple of minor league announcers - wow, what a slam.

Hey, they have to pay for that tractor some how. So i guess that is why someone have to go. it's like a 2 plus the tractor deal to replace Ash. We going to miss his explaination about the game because he does a super good job on it.

Maybe he'll be joining the coaching staff, like some other comentator we had. Ash was one of my favorite players when I was young (and a catcher). I really hate to see him go.

I agree, he called the game as it was being played when he was flying solo in the booth. Probably scored low marks with McLane for not working in enough sponsors

I was very upset when I heard about Ash. I wanted to ask Milo about it while he was signing my book (that I purchased from him) But I didn’t get my nerve up to do it.

*SLAP* Consider that a cyber slap for putting money into Milo's pocket!

Hope you're not bigger than me!
