one year today......

[mbudd121]

i wish all these comments could go to heaven so he could see them. I miss hearing him.

[vieper08]

Im only 36 but I feel my youth connection to Seattle sport is gone. Dave, The Tuba Man, Bill the beer man, Rick the peanut man, Pete Gross, Bob Blackburn...they are all gone. That sucks! Things just aren't the same without all those guys.

My husband is in 7th heaven i know that. We will miss you here in Seattle

[gatorcarter]

Wow, I'm just shocked! I had no idea untill just now, and this happened Nov 10th. I don't watch much tv and no one told me. Holy shit, I just met him at Safeco last year. He was walking around greeting all the fans. A real class act. Wow. This is a tough one. Rest in peace Dave. You're irreplaceable.

[EGS530]

I am a Giants fan but i have always respected the Mariners he was a great announcer and will be missed

[prosteelheader]

dave, you rock!!!

[lukeallyn]

I'm not even an M's fan and this makes me sad. This is a loss to all of baseball.

[hypercriticalone]

The man that made me a Mariners fan is gone, my fandom will continue, I will always love the Mariners' just how lucky have we been in the Northwest with Broadcasters, unbelievable. Dave, I look forward to meeting you when I come home as well.. Fly away Dave, fly away! You will be missed.

I grew up in Seattle listening to Dave with my father during those wonderful summer months. I remember going to games in the Kingdome and bringing a radio just so I could hear him call the games. His love of the game gave me an appreciation for baseball and an understanding of what life is all about. Thanks Dave for all those wonderful summer days and nights when you shared your love of baseball with us.

[itsmylife1776]

I moved to Renton, WA in late 2002 and listened to the full 2003 Mariner season with Dave Niehaus.What a talented broadcaster! It was like sitting down with a friend for 3 hours and taking in a Mariners game.I loved his voice and how he called a game.I can't believe he is gone.

[d0peness]

Aw man, those hot summer days while listening to baseball on the radio will never be the same.

[mapleva]

I don't think that I could ever watch that without getting a tear in my eye.

[jbizzle00]

R.I.P Dave this next season just wont be the same without you.

[kestill]

I Too have lived in the Northwest my entire life,  I love the cubs, but Dave Neihaus made me a Mariners fan, I looked forward too Mariner Game nights, cause i knew Dave would be Commentating.. If i could have had any Autograph, it would be Niehaus.. Mr. Mariner Himself... Nobody loved the mariners More than Him.... RIP Dave.....

[lordjj44]

R.I.P Dave, ive lived in the northwest my whole life. You made baseball exciting when the mariners were struggling. My Oh My! I hope they have baseball in heaven for you

Thanks for the memories

[joshuabrooks21]

I'd just like to say that Dave Niehaus was to Seattle what Harry Caray was to Chicago, the voice of their respective cities. RIP to both, and I'd also like to send a belated congratulations to Dave for being the Mariners' lone Hall Of Fame representative. May many more follow in his footsteps.

[ksanders167]

Dave,

You'll be truly missed. I hope they have baseball in Heaven for you.

[19havoc71]

Dave Niehaus was the epitome of the Seattle Mariners. A BIG chunk of histoy, love, memories and future of mariners baseball was taken and it will be hard to fill the void. The Mariners organization should play recordings of his homerun calls over the PA when a Mariner hits a home run. To all of his family and friends, your are in the hearts of all Mariners fans. We are hurting too. RIP Dave

[Deiradinn]

I'll always remember the guy from Ken Griffey's Slugfest on N64! Especially when you hit a Grand Slam! I knew I knew his name from somewhere, and now that I've watched this, much respect to this man!

[silence206c]

he is a legend in seattle and he will be missed. i remember listening to him as a child watching the mariners. he made the games special. r.i.p.

[SeigneurDeTemps]

RIP Mr. Niehaus. You will be greatly missed.

[hyrulehero96]

love the mariners or hate them. You loved Dave. Dave is Seattle

[justatraveler]

Great history to witness him live his passion here with the Seattle Mariners and share his enthusiasm of baseball from beginning to end...so gifted to have him...thanks for the years. My Oh My how Dave Niehaus (and his voice) will be missed.

[herrbrahms]

I always loved the bottom of the 5th inning on the radio, "Well good afternoon everybody, this is Dave Niehaus," and then I knew I had the A team on board.

[de7ached]

Grew up listening to him, a voice you can never forget. Thanks for painting the picture Dave.

[waldorfus]

his voice was baseball to me. Thanks Dave for helping me fall in love with the game.

[donni577]

rest in peace Dave

[SeattleRexx]

My thanks to the Niehaus family for sharing Dave with us for all these years. He IS and ALWAYS WiLL BE Mr. Baseball in Seattle. We will miss him.

[audigreddy206]

you will be missed. RIP Dave "...Game won 62, season over, post season next..."

[coolidgejosiah]

I honestly got tears in my eyes when I heard about it. You will be greatly missed Dave! You ARE Mariners baseball.

[kendvanpool]

It is very dusty in my office. I really need to do something about these allergies.

[toader8633]

He made the game of Baseball something special. If the Mariners were being broadcast on a East coast station I would turn the tv sound off and turn on my radio to listen to Dave

[Byers333]

Nice job Dave! We will miss not hearing you on tv sets in Alaska.

[greenies67]

My oh my! He really was the best. Hearing his voice brings me back to my childhood. Thanks for the memories Dave.

[baseballfan544]

RIP Dave!

You will be missed--and I'm gonna have me a salami sandwich on rye with mustard today!

[bigpopparamma]

R.I.P. Dave.

[cubicleboy]
