It was the '80 Olympics.  Prior to the above, he was an announcer for
the SF Giants in the mid '70s.  One year he teamed with Lon Simmons
and that was a riot -- much more entertaining than the team.  As a
Giants announcer, he was probably most famous for a post-game commentary
in '74 (?) when he ripped the team up one side and down another for their
attitude.  Shortly after that, the Giants' manager, Charlie Fox, was fired.

He came to the Giants from Cincinnati, where he couldn't tolerate the
dictatorial manner of their owner or GM, Bob Housam.  Don't know where
he was before that, but he'd have been pretty young.

I've always liked Al Michaels.  He's blunt, objective, yet factual, but
he still brings some excitement and entertainment to his coverage.  And
his electrifying "Do you believe in miracles?!" is one of the more
spine-tingling quotes from any sports announcer I've ever heard.

I would speculate that Wilson was cut loose because the Vikes determined that
Gannon is a better QB than Wilson and that Wilson's salary was too high for
a backup QB. Apparently Salisbury convinced the Viking coaches and management
that he could handle the backup job, so the Vikes let Wilson go.

Wade Wilson had 1 great year in his career: the year he went to the pro-bowl.
Before and after that year, he was an average quarterback, who has been, IMO,
slipping rapidly during the past 2 years.

I think Gannon and Salisbury have shown that they can handle the Viking QB
chores. Cutting Wilson was a great move on the part of the Vikings.

Hurrah for Keith, there are some decent people on this network.

Another one of you guys (I forgot your name) was complaining about the

Well, if the post was so boring, what were you doing after...say line #20?  NO

Some of my (I'm sure) well-intentioned opposers have resorted to profanity in

3rd round pick does seem pretty high given what Haley got the NIners,
of course if there is no draft next year... Looks like a decent deal
for both teams, as you mentioned Dotson has been great for the Bucs,
so Davis is expendable. The Cards released Jim Wahler the same day of
this trade so a guess is that Eric Swann will move from DE to NT(where
he plays quite well, its an easier position to learn) and Davis will
take his DE slot with Mike Jones at the other DE position.

Now if they can just get the linebackers to tackle, in the last two games
Freddie Joe Nunn has made 1 tackle and 2 assists with no sacks(according
to USA today's stats). Nunn belongs at DE and I'm surprised the Cards didn't
deal him before the deadline.

Johnny Johnson is questionable this week, has played almost no time this
year, and now is accused of assaulting a woman in a nightclub. The Cards
are going to wish they had traded him in the preseason. Johnny isn't a
bad guy, but this is getting old fast, and the team could have got a lot
more then than they will get if they eventually trade him.

 I don't have the stats offhand, but it is well known that the favorite
 wins the game about 75-80 (maybe more) % of the time. So, unless your program 
 does significantly better than that, you might as well have one line code
 which picks the favorite always. (That is one reason I didn't join the

I think that you are smoking crack or something.  The Cowboys may have

there is no way they can lose to Seattle, especially now that Dan 
McGuire is the quarterback, and he is pretty much untested...
