A lot of people don't make it to 88.

I don't know too many old folks that blow through a conversation quickly.

I thought it was great to see him again. He looks good. Brings back so many memories of him calling some of the big games on ABC. Not many are like Vin Scully or Ernie Harwell and able to stay so alert to broadcast a game at such an advanced age.

Perhaps you should have googled him..

before you made your ugly remarks.
You need to drop down on your knees and pray that people don't talk about you like that when you get to be his age.

Ask him why he did not call the Woody Hayes punch
Jan 2, 2017, 8:56 PM
|
|
In 1978, Keith Jackson was calling the Gator Bowl and he had to know that Woody Hayes had punched Charlie Bauman. He said nothing and just protected Woody Hayes. It was obvious the way the Ohio State coaches and players were surrounding their coach and restraining him.
If Keith Jackson makes it to 88, he should at least spill the details of that night.

I think he was having a hard time hearing the questions. Thought it was pretty good for being 88.
