Re: John Kelly
That would be cool, but not because I am unhappy with Kerbs and Joe

I always fell asleep listening to him. I don't miss him at all.

Re: John Kelly
I would have to assume when he signed in L.A. it was longer than a one year deal, but the details were not released publicly. It would be odd to replace a hall of fame broadcaster with an experienced guy on a one year contract.

Re: John Kelly
I’m in the minority here but I can’t stand JK. He was bearable when Panger did color but he has zero personality doesn’t have chemistry with anyone else.

Re: John Kelly
I'm in the minority with you. He's boring and dull. I don't get the blind love affair. If his last name was anything else, he'd just be another guy everyone quickly forgets about.The Average Gatsby wrote: ↑25 Jul 2026 17:20 pm I’m in the minority here but I can’t stand JK.

Re: John Kelly
He announces the game with fervor like his dad did. Pang was a big mouth who wouldn't shut up. Tried to dominate the airtime. Im tired of announcing teams that think that they are the entertainment. Call the game and shut up.DIAMONDINTHEROUGH wrote: ↑25 Jul 2026 17:29 pmI'm in the minority with you. He's boring and dull. I don't get the blind love affair.

But his father had a much better voice. And wasn't a snoozefest to listen to.Galatians221jb1 wrote: ↑25 Jul 2026 17:40 pmHe announces the game with fervor like his dad did.

Re: John Kelly
As someone that listened to Ron Jacober call games, be thankful for Kerbs.
JK was over-rated. It's the familiar connection that people are longing for.
Dan Kelly Sr. was the [shirt]. Glad I lived back then to hear him Gus Kyle.

Re: John Kelly
Did anyone listen to Alex Ferrario on the play by play for one game last year? I did. And I'm glad that Kerber was back the next game.

Re: John Kelly
To each their own, but I feel the complete opposite way. I’m watching the game so I don’t need someone to tell me the puck was dumped in. Like I know, I can see that. Pang had a good rapport with players and always told interesting stories. Kerbs and Vitale may go way off topic but they have some chemistry and I find them entertaining.Galatians221jb1 wrote: ↑25 Jul 2026 17:40 pmHe announces the game with fervor like his dad did.

Re: John Kelly
It’s become a moot point for me as I mute the sound until something happens, then rewind, unmute and listen to the call. Then re-mute. I guess that makes it a mute point.The Average Gatsby wrote: ↑25 Jul 2026 19:05 pmTo each their own, but I feel the complete opposite way.

Re: John Kelly
Kerbs is fine, but I’d rather they replace Vitale.
