All broadcasters should learn from him that you don't have to use 100 words to describe something when 20 will suffice. And we shouldn't forget he was a pretty decent NFL player before he ever set foot in a broadcasting booth.

Re: Pat Summerall
It's been so long since I watched football that, as I posted it, I momententarily confused him with Keith Jackson. Both are good, I might give the nod to jackson for whom I preferred. But there was never competition as Jackson was college.

Jackson did Monday Night Football the first year, but after Cosell set his pants on fire with his cigar in the booth one night, he asked to go back to college football.
