I'll throw in with you on this one. Go back and watch Las Vegas 2017, Osborne's pass on Savatgy and listen to the excitement in Ralph's voice. He elevated the moment and made the gravity of that moment unmistakable. Now try to imaging Daniel Blair in the same seat. It's not going to hit as hard.

Atlanta 2011, watching the end of that race with even Art Eckman on the Mike just wouldn't bring the same intensity.

Ralph had his flaws, no doubt, but he could bring the pandemonium in his voice when it was needed to showcase the most exciting moments of our sport.

You’re not the only one. Ralph and Emig were a great duo and balanced each other out

Yeah I would enjoy them joking with each other, you could tell they were genuine friends so they complimented each other well.
I don’t need an announcer to tell me what I am already seeing on a screen, they just add to the enjoyment of the race.

Ralph and Emig were and will always be supercross to me. Those guys were part of the best time in SX.
