I should've known I'd get something soon enough....Karma perhaps? There is no excuse - I messed up and I've enjoyed reading comments about it. It's a good learning experience. And when I'm in Chicago in a couple weeks, I'm going to thank Jim Curtin personally for passing it along to his blogging buddies. Sad to hear about Sarachen - he's one of the sports true gentleman. Thanks for posting this! Cheers!

He knew the player, he remembered him when he played for the Fire, he was wearing a Fire jersey....so, he goofs. Unlike the TV guys, when you or I screw up at our place of work, it's not something most people know about. We don't have the blogosphere breathing down our necks, micro-critiquing everything we do.

A funny piece of footage saved for posterity. I guess he will never be able to live that down. It would be confusing but a commentator should still know the players whatever they might be wearing.
