Thanks for linking those videos guys. It definitely brought back some memories. It also reminded what I didn't like about the voiced PbP... tone and inflection never changes on the clips. For example the only have one clip of Allen saying "a high fly ball" and you will hear it exactly the same 10 times a game. That sameness begins to grate on you after a while.

You know what they say, "beware what you wish for". Voiced PbP sounds good but in the end it is recorded voice. You don't have a real live human doing this for you. Maybe I wouldn't like this as much as I thought.
