Farewell, Scooter!

Yankee great Phil Rizzuto passed away today.

For those of you that aren't baseball fans, but are pop culture fans, you might recognize him from his play-by-play of double entendres in Meatloaf's Paradise by the Dashboard Light (Here he comes, squeeze play/ It's gonna be close/ Here's the throw, here's the play at the plate/ Holy cow, I think he's gonna make it...)

In an age of classless, personality deficient athletes (and celebrities for that matter) Rizzuto was a blast to listen to and watch. Listening to him call games from the booth would undoubtedly result in laughter and eye rolling.

But, hey, we still have Mike Vick...
