Default Re: What are your all time favorite announcers\' calls?

"Havlicek stole the ball" is my personal favorite.

And I dare anyone to try to say it without the Johnny Most rasp. Most's call of Bird's steal and DJ's layup against the Pistons is also classic ("What a play by Bird").

And yeah, I was also kind of disappointed when I first heard Castiglione's call ("stabbed by Foulke, he has it, he underhands to first and the Boston Red Sox are the world champions") but he's just not the kind of announcer who excels at high drama. Ken Coleman used to be pretty good in those big spots.
