Interesting re Scully. I would never assume that announcers who never played have really great insight into the game. Great stories yes. But deep insight about the game? I think of the NFL. Al Michaels and Joe Buck know more than I do, but Tony Romo has a level of insight that is miles deeper than either of those two. A-Rod and Ron Darling in baseball. Tim McCarver. John Madden a former coach. As former players-coaches, their understanding of the game is much much deeper than your ordinary announcer. Vin obviously saw a ton and is a great storyteller.
