Everyone remembers him for college football, but he was great at MLB baseball in the 70's and 80's too. Grew up watching Monday Night Baseball.

Yep and he hated it. Hated the concept, hated the execution and hated his booth mates.

Great broadcaster. I can still hear him calling USC vs Texas in the 2005 National Championship. "He's going for the corner, he's got it!"
