I dont care why he did the drink stuff he did, i only care that he loved to drink, and he wasn't a good journalist because he just loved baseball. His legend and myth will never decrease for me. I listened to him every day from 1987 until the end. He was a drunk that loved baseball. He was every baseball fan of my childhood. Long live Harry!
I saw this video a few years ago and then it disappeared. I was so upset. I can’t begin to describe how elated I am to see this back on RU-vid. You’re truly doing the lord’s work, man.
Forgot the best part of the story of him getting fired by the Cardinals about going to another bar and ordering Schlitz. The bartender had to go to the liquor store across the street because didn't serve it. Then he had to keep going to the liquor store because people were ordering it in support of Harry.
Olberman is such an asshole...almost seems like he wanted to be a mere footnote mentioned by Harry, yet it sounded like a smear story...maybe I don't get ko's sarcasm, but HC was fun to listen to in the late '70s...
