The drinks are on Rory
If Angels broadcaster Rory Markas sounds a little too much like Harry Caray during Saturday night's game on 710-AM, forgive him, for he has sinned.
It's not his fault.
The folks at Muldoon's Dublin Pub & Celtic Bar in Newport Beach are doing him the honor of including him in their Guinness Irish "Wall of Fame" during a slobbering ceremony Saturday at 1 p.m. The induction includes a concert by the Orange County Irish party band, The American Wake.
And what did Sir Rory do to deserve this honor. Why, be born with Irish blood, of course.
One of our favorite guys in the business, Markas has been the Angels' radio guy the last four years, as well as doing USC basketball.
This Guinness Irish Wall of Fame thing was started in 1999 to "recognize individuals of Irish ancestry who reach high achievement in the realm of the arts, sports & public service." Past inductees include former Lakers Hall of Famer Chick Hearn, actors Tom Berenger and John Mahoney, author Ray Bradbury, U.S.Senator John Kerry and former UCLA football coach Terry Donahue.
Muldoon’s is located at 202 Newport Center Dr. (949) 640-4110, or find it online at www.muldoonspub.com and save some room for the extra lean corned beef hash and the Kerrigold Vintage Irish Cheddar Cheese on top.

Great stuff about Rory.
Nice SLAM of Arbogast again! Keep it up Tom. Very entertaining.
Why USC wants to be associated with a pathetic loser like Arbo is amazing to me.
