Now Sean, I know you're younger than most of us here, but as a student of
sports broadcasting, you should not so easily forget Johnny Most.  I can't
claim his game descriptions were the most artistic or accurate, but he
certainly did get excited during the many great Celtics moments over the
years.  (i.e., Havlicek stole the ball!)
