Havent seen this anywhere here. (Probably missed it in a thread, as I'd be surprised if I'm the first to see this)
https://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/09/02/sports/spanish-broadcaster-pulls-yankees-broadcaster-john-sterling-flooding-car/

Yet perhaps the most interesting thing is that the NYY have a broadcaster named Rickie Ricardo.

NEW YORK — Yankees broadcaster John Sterling was helped out of his flooding car by Spanish radio play-by-play man Rickie Ricardo on Wednesday night after Sterling got stuck trying to drive home after a game.

First the fire that demolished his apartment complex, now this—how many messages does the universe need to send to John Sterling to move out of Edgewater?

Ricky Ricardo used to be the Spanish announcer for the Phillies and Eagles also. He was born in North Jersey to Cuban immigrant parents. Could be funny. He used to do part time late at night sport shows on the Big sports radio station here WIP. And host some post game Phillies shows. I've even heard him doing a home run call in French, when somebody asked him if he knew any French. The negative, he grew up a Yankee fan and admitted his disdain for the Red Sox. I know there are going to be Sterling announcing jokes like.......RICKY SAVED ME.....RICKY SAVED ME.......RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICKY SAVED ME!!!. That's bad. Anyway I'm glad he's OK. Both of them.

Is that the message or is the message that God hates you and its time to get things in order?

Editing upon some introspection. I am glad he made it out ok. The news from NY and NJ is horrible.

Sterling's call of Larry Bird's 60 point game is worth watching/listening to if you never have.

Yes it was. South Jersey Mullica Hill, and North Jersey and New York. I know a few people in Philly who were flooded out of their Apts. and condos. Not to get on a soap box but it looks like with climate change there will be more of this all over.

EF3 tornado in NJ. Insane. There was another EF3 in PA near Trenton a few weeks ago as well.
