Globetrotters messing with Charley




I've got to say, on Charley Steiner Appreciation Day, I DO NOT appreciate the way the Harlem Globetrotters are treating Charley Steiner.

Charley played himself as an ESPN anchorman in this classic 1984 hit, which starred Scott Schutzman Tiler as "Boris" and Tim Kazurinsky as "Bart".

Chuck comes in right at the end with the highlight of the video

Charley on Vin Scully

In an interview with the Biz of Baseball's Maury Brown:


"The thing—and I say this all the time—I’ve learned so much from Vin. Not so much what he does on the air because nobody goes down Vin Scully Boulevard; that’s a one way street for him. But what I have learned is how he conducts himself as an icon. Watching him is like, whoa, geez! I don’t know how to describe it. He’s our Johnny Carson. He’s our Bob Dylan. He’s our John Lennon. He’s our Muhammad Ali. He’s the man."

We'll be celebrating Steiner all day. Here's two videos from his ESPN days:
