People like to hate on him on TD, but I miss Verne and his golden baritone.

Oh. Petros and Money throw in a Musburger 2nd down and 9 randomly. They probably got it from the bit you're referring too.

Definitely. Especially Skip because Skip DGAF. Gone are the days when your home team announcer could talk about his divorces, joke about alimony, and say things like "the bases are loaded...and I wish I was too"

Madden and Summerall were a staple of my childhood. Even the commentary in the early versions of Madden were on point. Pat was great.

A lot of good ones already listed, so I'll mention Don Criqui. He was the voice of the Orange Bowl when I was a kid.
