i grew up with jim mckay, curt gowdy, vin scully and jack buck.

now, if i must, i have to tolerate chris berman, stuart scott and neil everett.

if anyone wants to suggest this country is crumbling, there’s your evidence.

The documentary HBO did on him a few years ago was fantastic. A definitive icon amongst many self promoting assholes.

I grew up watching Wide World of Sports. Jim McCay always seemed a class guy. He will be missed.
