Being an announcer is pretty thankless. I did it locally out in California a long time ago. Like with anything public, there will be haters and those that like you. Personally, I thought that Chet did a good job. Frankly, I thought Tony did last year, too. I think that Drake does a good job adding color and info from the track, and not sure that he is ready for the head job yet, but I do think that he will be. It will be interesting to see who takes the mike next year.
