John Ferguson calling play by play is what I was raised on listening to Tiger games in the 60's and 70's.

He called Saints games for WWL for awhile too.

They both have their screw ups.

I remember one Ferguson did where the QB dropped back to pass and Ferguson thought it was going to be intercepted...he calls

"INTER-------Complete! at the 45 yard line 1st and 10 TIGERS!

I remember one where Mike Qunitella caught a pass and Ferguson excitely said, "he's running down the line".

My brother and I are fired up, but turns out he's talking about the horizontal yard marker line and not the sideline. So it was like a 4-yard gain instead of the long play it originally sounded like.
