RIP Dick Enberg

Grew up listening to him call games in the booth with Merlin Olsen. His call of The Fumble is one I'll always remember. I preferred Criqui but Enberg was smooth as silk. Oh my!

    Very sad news. Loved him and his soothing voice and unique style, especially covering tennis and specifically Wimbledon and the French Open on NBC. He will be missed. RIP Dick.

    Breakfast at Wimbledon. Loved his tennis coverage. This news sucks.

    So many memories with Dick and bud Collins at Wimbledon. They were the announcers for the 1982 final between McEnroe and Connors. What a five set thriller that was. Also liked both Enberg and criqui for NFL football. But nobody beats Keith Jackson.

    IT CAN'T BE A TRUE PLAYOFF UNLESS THE BIG TEN CHAMPIONS ARE INCLUDED
