| 1625665577053192192 | If @TheDaveSimsShow were a ballplayer he’d be described as a “five-tool” practitioner of his profession.

| 1625536093046341632 | Hard to believe because they're all over the place now, but we once lived in a world without all-sports radio stations. The success of two Black sportscasters -- Art Rust Jr. and @TheDaveSimsShow -- showed the concept was worth trying. #BlackHistoryMonth https://t.co/OOHDQEFDCQ | 5 |

| 1625852324186042370 | @ProspectInsider @TheDaveSimsShow @heygoldy patented Grand Salami calls, and really cool experience for those that were there. This was all pre-social media, so it only exists on a dusty VHS tape somewhere. Might be fun if the @Mariners have their guys do some reading next December and post it for families! | 1 |

| 1625682280252579840 | But that's never happening again. I've had the pleasure of meeting & chatting with Rick Rizzs, @TheDaveSimsShow, and @heygoldy, and long ago at a restaurant in Peoria Mike Blowers glanced up from his newspaper to say hey (LOL). I'm covered. Glad they're the voices of this team. | 52 |
