It's hard to believe that ten years has passed since the Barracuda arrived into San Jose and that's where we're starting in our miniseries celebrating the tenth anniversary of our San Jose Barracuda

Back in September on his YouTube channel the legend that is Brodie Brazil made the shock announcement that his time at NBC Sports California was coming to an end and now we've had a few games without seeing him on Sharks Pre and Post Game Live its time to bid a fond farewell to one of the best Brodie had been with the Sharks since I had begun supporting them back in 2009 which makes this extremely hard for me as he was one of a kind Brodie wasn't just another sports broadcaster he was a friend to all of us Its hard to think of many other sports broadcasters who have done the things that Brodie's done over the years especially in engaging wth us fans from all over the world he is simply irreplaceable Thank you for everything over the past 15 years and I wish you all the very best in whatever's next Watch Brodie's statement here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44Pf3OyGpNU Check out one of my favourite Brodie memories from when he interviewed Sharkie during the pandemic - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44Pf3OyGpNU
