Legendary sportscaster Al Michaels arrested, charged with DUI

(CNN) -- The man revered for yelling "Do you believe in miracles?" as the U.S. hockey team upset the mighty Soviets in the 1980 Winter Olympics was arrested and charged with misdemeanor DUI in Southern California on Friday night, Santa Monica police said.

Sgt. Ryan Gradle said Michaels, the current play-by-play announcer for NBC's "Sunday Night Football," was extremely cooperative and was released on his own recognizance Saturday morning.

Michaels was arrested shortly before 10 p.m., then spent a little more than five hours in the Santa Monica City Jail, the Los Angeles Inmate Information Center said.

He's scheduled to appear at Los Angeles Municipal Court at 8:30 a.m. on June 26.

Neither Michaels nor NBC had immediate comment.

CNN has reached out to Michaels' representatives for a response.

If Al Michaels is penalized by NBC beyond a slap on the wrist, then I'll believe in miracles.

Do you believe in over-inflated egos based on a famous phrase uttered three decades ago???!

Always seemed like an asshole to me, but he is a good PBP announcer.

I don't understand why rich people aren't just driven anywhere.

Road head's just not the same unless you're driving.

I doubt he was "partying" but rather golfing all day. And had a few in the lounge afterwards.

Seemed a lot smarter than this to me. Don't know why if these people are gonna drink they just don't hire a driver to be on call. But then again, in today's world they would probably be drunk also. :doh!:
