Cosell-Meredith-Gifford was fun at times. Everyone hated Howard and Dandy Don had his moments.

Cosell is far and away the goat. No one had a vocabulary like him. He was THE voice of Monday Night Football. The into and half-time high lights with music in the background and Cosell narrating was beyond awesome.

For those who didn't grow up in the 70's, they won't be able to appreciate just how great he was. His interviews with Ali and Frazier were must see tv. He was world renown in an era without the internet or ESPN.

CBS Golf crew pre-Faldo
Dick Enberg of tennis calls
Even though he had lost his fastball at that point, Keith Jackson calling the SC-Texas Rose Bowl was as good as it gets

His boxing commentary was outstanding as well. You knew it was a big fight when Cosell was calling it on a Saturday afternoon Wide World of Sports broadcast.

Down goes Frazier! Down goes Frazier!
