If you like genital shrinking weather, Rapid City is where you want to be in the winter.

He did a good job and I think...well I always appreciated that he seemingly made a point in this last season and the later part of the previous to announce the score and time left in the what period with some better frequency.
Best of luck to him..I sure hope we a good replacement, its going to be a good season and we have a strong schedule's..last thing we need is to tune in and not hear the score or the time left or what period it is, because some one cant find the names to go with the numbers on the roster.

No thanks. Did the radio gig for 10 years...I like my weekends off too much these days.

Good luck, Danny.

I'd imagine that Bob Mills (another BGRSO member) will probably take over. Bob was Danny's partner for the playoffs.

I wouldn't be against doing it, played the game, coached the game, my radio skills aren't professional but I can relay what's going on rather efficiently!

Good Luck to Danny! I thought he did an excellent job of calling the game! I would often have the radio on at the games and his calls were right on with the fast paced action I was watching! He should have a good career in this business!!

Good Luck Danny, you'll be missed!!!

I agree with the others -- I thought Danny did a very nice job, and I wish him the best of luck.

With what (I'm guessing) the job pays, I imaging it'll be difficult to attract a pool of veteran announcer candidates. Probably will have to be someone who is right out of school.
