Whoa, I was just about to use him in a joke to someone because the dude next to me has his phone going off and it's the NFL on Fox intro.

One of the greats! No gimmicky BS.  I thought this writer summed his style up perfectly...

 

He stayed out of the way and let the sound of the game do the work for him, speaking only when it's necessary, working a reserve many of today's broadcasters should probably study.
