He pulled out a "Papa Smurf" last weekend during one of the softball games.

Him and Ben are awesome together. Ben will laugh and make fun of him. Then Lyn will bait Ben into talking about some random thing like hunting.

Love it, he makes the games more entertaining to watch in my opinion. Ben is also one of the best in the biz.

Watching with other commentators brings the broadcast down a notch.
