Gil Santos is retiring from his on-air gig at WBZ. It's unclear if he will continue to be the play-by-play guy for the Patriots. I hope not.
In the last few years, I have become increasingly frustrated at his inability to correctly name the down, distance or where on the field the ball is even marked. He's got a great voice and when he gets things right, he's tremendous. But he gets too much wrong. It's time to replace him.
He can take Gino with him, too.

Thank you. The guy constantly jumps the gun, calling passes compete, and then having to backtrack. It's radio, for Christ's sake. Just wait until you know for sure. It's not like radio listeners know when the ball was actually caught. We're waiting to hear from you.
"If I've told you once, Gino, I've told you a thousand times - it's not how many points you score, it's when you score them."
That's an actual Santos quote from earlier this season. The mind boggles.
