@MickeyMorandini1 Vin has often said he is a practicing Roman Catholic. He says his religion has helped him cope with his first wife's sudden death in 1972 and his son's death in a helicopter crash in the 1980's.

Wooden and Scully were neighbors when Vin moved to LA in 1958. There is a YT clip where Vin describes his first meeting with Coach Wooden. From the until his death, they were great friends.

@LACOFD121 Hold the phone, it was just announced that Vin WILL be back for the 2012 season. Truly the most epic career of any radio/TV announcer ever.

Vin Scully is a Christian. I have never heard him say he was. you can just tell !

Wooden didn't win until his 17th year at UCLA after the infamous booster Sam Gilbert began to purchase for the elite high school players in the country.

Too bad the freak show (mccourt) is taking away from Vinnie's last year. They just don't make them like Vin!!!

The Greatest of All Time.

if there were a hall of fame for class, wooden and scully would be the first inducted.
Vin never fails to find the right words. Appropriate too because, with the possible exception of Tommy Lasorda, there is no one person left alive today who would be missed as much by people in Los Angeles as Vin one day will be.
