While there is ample evidence that this person is notable (large number of Google results, Wikipedia page), I don't believe that the page's single, short quote is worth recording on a quote site like this (for the lazy, the quote is "That's a star!"). On a larger scale, I generally don't believe that quotes from sports announcers have any place here, unless they're memorable for more than just being something they say everything   happens. You end up with a list of short quotes that aren't special, and if you remove them, you're pretty much out of content. For example, see Fran Healy (baseball), which includes such gems as "Got 'em!!" and "Score it 4-3;" that page at least has a couple of other quotes to buoy it. —LrdChaos (talk) 14:12, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
