I've shared this story about Brewers' announcer Bob Uecker previously, but I'm going to do it again. Anyway, a few years back when the Brewers were in town, a member of the Philly media approached Uecker to tell him how much he enjoyed his work as well as his acting in the film, Major League. After thanking the press dude for the compliment and exchanging some more small talk, the pair split up.
Suddenly, though, Uecker stopped, turned around and called back to the media guy, “Hey, have you seen the second movie yet,” referring, of course, to the sequel in the Major League film series.
“No,” the press guy answered.
“Don’t, it sucks,” Uecker said.
That Bob Uecker – always looking out for you.
The reason I relayed that story again is because of funnyman Norm McDonald's recent appearance on the Letterman Show where he told a Bob Uecker story that left Dave in stitches.
