Just when I thought all the pieces to the puzzle (except for a closer) were finally coming together with just the right mix of future superstar youngsters and grizzled veterans who can hit with power in the clutch who act like perfect role models for the kids–Good old Jeff Kent has to open his mouth and proceeds to faht loudly and proudly for several boorish minutes about what a jerk Vin Scully hapens to be in his opinion.
VIN SCULLEY SHOULD SHUT HIS YAP????
KEEEERIPES!!!!
I’d always heard Jeff Kent was just as big an a$$hole as his nemisis in SF (just without the barcalounger and cuban cigars), but what a way to prove it!
To yell at Vinny and tell to shut up is down right sacrilegious. I hope, for Kent’s sake, Tommy wasn’t close enough to hear that kind of blasphemy. If the Big Dodger in the Sky happened to get wind of what he said….
Telling Vinny to shut his yap is akin to asking the sun not to rise or screaming at the nightingale for making all that screeching squacking noise.
Good heavens man! Now I know what’s bveen wrong in the Dodger clubhouse these past few seasons.
Actually, Kent has an awful lot of nerve to say what he just said about the finest sportscaster of all time who still, as an octogeneraian, puts allothers of his ilk to shame once he puts the microphone in his hand. He not only knows baseball better than most swine masquerading as players like Mr. Kent, he is so eloquent as a pubic speaker I’m sure there are many who, as kids, modeled their technique to be more like Vinny. I know I did starting as a 10 year old. I never would have been able to win an argument before a jury if it wasn’t for the influence of Vin Skully. I guess he was as much a childhood hero for me as was Duke Snider and Sandy Koufax.
The truth about Kent is that he is now a mere shadow of what he once was. With out the Mannyman hitting behind him he’s a .240 hitter who no longer can hit in the clutch and can only hit grooved fatballs. With the additgion of Manny to the team, Kent is getting a steady diet of grooved fatballs, is hitting like he was 30 instead of 40 and is now earning his pay check instead of stealing it.
Kent should shut his yap and show a little respect to his betters. Kent isn’t worthy of washing Scully’s jock strap, much less carrying it.
KENT TOLD VINNY TO SHUT UP???

GREAT slide show - very effective way to re-live the game! Thanks Diamond, and thanks Terry Pierson.
