Whoa Nellie.

Whoa Nellie.

I'm pretty one-dimensional when it comes to sports these days, not much in to college anything, but you're right about Jackson and Lundquist. I always enjoyed hearing Jackson in particular because you could tell he loved what he was doing and had a passion for it.

David Ogden Stiers - Major Winchester from MASH, age 75.

So sorry to hear that ... I was watching an episode of M*A*S*H yesterday that featured him. I watched a (PBS or Smithsonian, I forget which) documentary a couple weeks ago, and at the end I was surprised to see he was the narrator. His voice when he wasn't playing Winchester was completely different. Rest his soul.

Yes, I remember that one.
