There's a little bit more of a freedom when you're doing radio play-by-play as opposed to television. I prefer the television side of it.

I'm a proponent of a playoff so everybody can calm down.

It's a different world for those of us who are doing this for a living. Certainly a lot different than my dad had to deal with when he was calling games on a national level for CBS. It's just a different world. I'm not saying it's better or worse, there's just a lot more access.

Even talking about serious issues - it's hard to fit in anything around calling a baseball game.

If you're the play-by-play announcer, I think it's your job to be better than just saying what's on people's TV screen.

Judd Apatow, Conan O'Brien ... taking what you think is funny, and then adding another layer to it. That's kind of my sensibility. Those are the guys that make me laugh.

I think Jeff [Van Gundy] is really, really good and fun to listen to. And I would be disappointed if - I know he offered to not be a part of the broadcast - he wasn't on the air. We'd all miss something. I think the [brother situation] adds the human element.
