Enberg perfectly articulates choice to cut back

Bill Center, longtime sportswriter for U-T San Diego, is an employee of the Padres.

It has been a week since Dick Enberg announced that next season would be his last in the booth as the Padres' primary television voice.

And the more I reflect on the Enberg's candor regarding his decision, the more I respect a man who I always felt was one of the best in his profession.

Enberg loves what he does for a living. That will never change. But like everyone on this planet, Enberg is on borrowed time. There comes a time for all of us to balance the scales.
