Sooooooo many memories listening to him when not all of the games were televised. That goes for football, basketball, and baseball. Big plays and big games were not complete until I heard how Jim called it.

That says it all right there. He was voice of a generation. Most of us grew up with Jim. I came in at the end of the Ferguson era and he was great. But Hawthorne will always be the voice that introduced Saturday Nights in Death Valley to us. Any time something spectacular happened if we were in the Stadium or watching on TV, the first thing we wanted was hear how Jim called it.
