If you had your choice of network jobs what would you pick? I'd have to go with Verne Lundquist's gig at CBS. He spends his fall Saturdays calling the biggest SEC football games, he works CBS golf broadcasts at the Masters, Pebble Beach, Torrey Pines, the PGA Championship and other great tour stops, and gets to call college basketball games and many of the March Madness tourney games. Heck of a gig if you can get it. I'd throw Jim Nantz in their too.

What are some other great sports broadcasting jobs?

Yes, Fowler is living my dream.

There is a radio guy in Detroit who does Michigan/Lions back-to-back, which would be pretty sweet.

Nantz and Tirico have to be up there. Nantz is obvious. Tirico is now cherry picking big college hoops games on top of MNF and golf.
