I remember that so many people hated Cosell, but I always thought he was fantastic and the best and most entertaining broadcaster of that and maybe any time.

I think he should have retired two years before he did because he begun slipping mentally.

Thankfully, it didn’t tarnish his legacy.

Next game we all get together we'll have to hear that.

Funny enough, I wasn't a big Cosell fan when I was little. He was kind of an acquired taste, I guess. I thought he talked too slow most of the time and he sounded pretty monotone.

But I guess after years and years of MNF, I found myself looking forward to his off-beat style. He was like that funny uncle that you saw at the family reunion; kinda goofy but always entertaining/endearing.

I actually agree with both of you.

Cosell was quirky and funny but also took his craft seriously. He was always one of my favorites even though he was a little before my time.
