Call me crazy but I actually like the Jim Hughson call on this goal more than John Shorthouse’s. Don’t get me wrong, the “slayed the dragon” call is amazing but Hughson’s “SCOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRREEESSSSS” is just a bit better imo. Also love the “it’s a wonderful day for an exorcism” https://t.co/CAnvclz8gE
