Harry was the first great voice of the Cards through the 1950s. Part of my thesis topic is radio/baseball/advertising and Congressional legislation. Harry was a great pitch-man for Budweiser...even after he left the Cardinals.

I have nothing against Harry, dont get me wrong he seemed to be a great guy. I just couldnt stand hearing him on WGN, watching the Cubs game. Probably b/c he was old and had one too many of those budweisers you were mentioning. His son Skip Carry (Braves announcer) is great, very funny. I actually grew up watching Harry and Skip. Every since i was 5 ive been watching Skip on the Braves network, and watching Harry and steve stone on WGN. Now i watch Chip and Joe Carter on WGN... terrible
