frick the Jim hawthorne haters.

He screwed up three of his most famous calls.

He called the Morris homerun a 3-run homerun.

He called Devery Henderson Jack Hunt.

He said LSU jumped out to a 4-0 lead in game 3 vs. Texas then fell behind and came back to win.

He has a good voice but he's a joke.

They're only famous because he screwed up.

There are many, many worse at the job and all announcers have missed a few calls.
Happy Birthday Jim!

Maybe they're his most famous because it's two end of national championship game calls and the bluegrass miracle.
