New Year, Same Mike
Opening Day is next Monday, April 3rd. Let's see what Mike has in store for us this season. Send me any classic quotes as you hear them.
A collection of witticisms, insights, descriptions, cackles, and otherwise inane thoughts by St. Louis Cardinals radio broadcaster Mike Shannon. A Shannonism often results in a sense of confusion or amazement in the listener. Laughter, tears, and head-scratching are frequent responses to a Shannonism.
