sorry to disagree re Munson
I am an old timer and grew listening to Munson do Nashville Vols baseball and Vandy sports when there was no TV and his homer passion was always evident but made games extremely interesting.
Then to Georgia and his memorable calls-- Hershel Walker/Billy Bates---oh my God, he's only a freshman" vs Florida "Lindsey Scott Lindsey Scott" and "stomped in the face with a hobnail boot" are historical calls and examples of why is is in HOF
I must respectfully disagree with regard to Larry Munson. I also grew up in Nashville and recall Munson's pre-Georgia broadcasts. By contrast, you knew that John Ward was a staunch Tennessee supporter but, as a broadcaster, he always conducted himself professionally. Munson's "stomped in the face with a hobnail boot" comment was, quite simply, crass and unprofessional.
