03.24.09 ‘I WANNA KISS YOU’ SPRING TRAINING STYLE
Awful Announcing found this clip of Herb Deshaies, father of Astros’ announcer Jim Deshaies, putting the moves on a currently-unnamed sideline reporter. It’s not very often that mere mortals succeed where Joe Namath fails. And I don’t know if it’s because of her nervousness from being on-air or the allure of that bright bucket hat, but she just goes with it. And his son Jim calls him a masher, instead of saying, “If you did more of that at home then you and Mom might still be together.” I think that shows just how much little Jimmy’s grown up.

“Here, Herb. You’ll need your teeth back.”
a kiss? i would have thrown the bat in the dugout.
Jim “Two Silhouettes On” DeShaies…one of the few Berman nicknames that I can’t get out of my head due to it’s absurdity and irrelevance.
Enrico,
It’s from a 1957 song.
Took a walk and passed your house late last night
All the shades were pulled and drawn way down tight
From within the dim light cast two silhouettes on the shade
