I always enjoyed listening to his games the most. This is my own personal bias against John Madden, 
but I think Summerall was a saint for having to put up with him. lol
RIP Sir, you will be missed.

Pat Summerall, the football player turned legendary play-by-play announcer, died Tuesday. He was 82.
He was best known as a broadcaster for teaming with former NFL coach John Madden for 22 years. Summerall also worked for years alongside former player Tom Brookshier and became the voice of the NFL in the 1970s and 1980s, calling most of the league's signature games.
His powerful and eloquent voice was well-known to thousands of football fans, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said.
"For a man who could dramatically capture a moment with very few words," Jones said, "there simply aren't enough words to adequately describe what he meant to sports and broadcasting in this country."
