SmootSmack:

If you recall - and liked - Jack Buck and Hank Stram, you probably also remember Curt Gowdy and Al Derogatis from AFL days. They were good too.

I notice that no one here has mentioned Larry Michael... For those who are convinced that all the announcers in the world hate the Redskins, I'm surprised that Michael isn't at the top of their list for greatness. If he had called the 73-0 loss to the Bears back in the 40s, he would have attributed it to a couple of balls bouncing the wrong way and three questionable calls by the officials...
