This isn't a soccer related post, but I wanted to note the passing of one of America's greatest sports commentators. I was in elementary school during the tail end of Gowdy's career, and even at that age I was impressed by his voice, his impartiality, and his approachability. As a native of Palm Beach County, I don't remember his fishing shows on the local NBC station, but I do remember his involvement with the local sports awards.
RIP, Curt Gowdy, and thank you for a life well lived. They don't make sports commentators like that anymore.
