Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 4544210, member: 289"] They are all gone now but the echoes of their broadcasts remain in our collective heads: [ATTACH type="full" alt="1674848276643.png"]224518[/ATTACH] I agree with Tomcat that Packer was the game's greatest analyst, breaking down what was going on in the game, which is what I want to know. McGuire provided the color without going over-the-top Vitale-style and Enberg a calm, agreeable play-by-play. That said, I have never forgiven Packer for shouting at the refs "This isn't the NBA! There's no continuation!!!" at the end of the 1978 Western Kentucky game in the NCAAs. He convinced them to take Marty Byrnes' basket off the board and turn an 'and one' into a one and one and we lost by one. Marty had been hacked going up for a lay-up and somehow managed to flip the ball in off the backboard before going out of bounds. [/QUOTE]
