The End Of An Era Is Upon Us

If the Dodgers first 3-game losing streak of the season wasn't enough to be bummed about, the news broke today that legendary Hall of Fame announcer Vin Scully plans to announce in 2010 and then hang 'em up.

Part of me is glad to have that date out there because the man deserves the rest.

Part of me is terrified because the Dodgers have yet to find anyone who comes close to lacing Vinny's proverbial boots in the booth.

And part of me is sad because I just can't imagine a historic Dodger moment going down without Vinny's voice there to call it.

It's the end of an era upon us, folks... just about fifteen months away.
