		Caray, if I remember correctly was disgusted and made it clear that no matter what the argument was about, it was just silly and unprofessional.
		Skip's "compliments" to opposing teams are almost always qualified by some remark blaming the unexpected failure of a Braves' player for the opposing team's success.

		Harray Caray memorialized in a statue near Wrigley Field in Chicago.
		Harry Caray (born Harry Christopher Carabina, March 1, 1914 — February 18, 1998), was a beloved TV and radio broadcaster for four Major League Baseball teams, lastly the Chicago Cubs of the National League.

		The Carays, Van Wieren, Sutton and Simpson will continue to call the Braves' 70 games that are televised nationally on TBS, as well as all the games on radio.
		But the Turner South change means Skip Caray and Van Wieren will call fewer games on TV than at any time since the 1970s, when Ted Turner hired them to help make the Braves a cable programming juggernaut.
