I grew up with Vin Scully and even decades later the sound of his voice brought back those feelings and memories. I don't follow baseball anymore but I might tune in to a playoff or WS game.
I listened to Chick Hearn do Lakers broadcasts for years. The best basketball announcer ever. As he said "Our words eye view". "The door is closed, the light is out, the eggs are cooling, the butter's getting hard, the Jello's jiggling.
I never liked hockey but there was on announcer I would listen to. I can't think of his name but his use of the English language was amazing.
