Definitely!!I'll just say that we fortunate to have Greg Sharpe right now. He is light years better than what Pavelka was. Maybe not to the level of Lyle, but I hope he stays until he retires.
t remember that. I stayed up really late to listen to that gameOh, I know....but I'm a pot stirrer....
I WILL say my favorite Bremser game was the oft forgotten Hawaii game where he MIGHT have been partaking before said contest...
I remember that about Lyle, Too. I don't think he could see that well toward the end of his career or even close to itGlad to see others like Dick Perry. He was my favorite because of his accuracy. Lyle Bremser was colorful and fun to listen to but he often was way off on what he was reporting. If you watch a game with his commentary spliced in you will see that he was often painfully off: "Tagge hands off to Kinney, and Kinney fights for 6 yards. Second and 4." Uh, no, Kinney just barely made it back to the line of scrimmage and it's 3rd and 9. Still, a Bremser classic like JR's punt return against OU cannot be matched.
Isn't Mitch from smith center? Possibly southern Nebraska? I herd the story but can't recallRose was terrible
Swarm was terrible
Zenner was great when I was a kid... didn’t he die really young?
I like Sharp
i’d LOVE MITCH HOLTHUS
Yeah, I believe he had leukemia. He was my mom's cousin, or uncle or something #humblebragZenner was great when I was a kid... didn’t he die really young?
....who you got?
Yep. From Smith Center, KS. Earned a couple of degrees from K-State. I'm not a Chiefs fan but I do enjoy listening to Holthus. Every Chiefs game is on Omaha local radio so sometimes there isn't much of a choice when listening on the radio.Isn't Mitch from smith center? Possibly southern Nebraska? I herd the story but can't recall
By all accounts that I have read Bremser was indeed a genuinely nice guy. Everybody he worked with just loved him. I think, too, that it was precisely this aspect of his personality that made him such a great announcer. Despite his inaccuracies you just got the impression listening to him that it was as if your best buddy from next door was calling a game.I will go with Lyle, but I am old and cranky and think everything from the old days is best. One of my best friends use to mow Lyle's lawn. Started doing it when he went to Westside and continued all the way through going to NU. Lyle treated him very well. Always had little side projects for him to do. I never met Lyle but I've helped mow his lawn and carry plants to his flowerbeds.
" The 7 -10 split for a set of Firestones"Don’t remember that, but Joe Patrick got stuck covering the local bowling leagues at Leisure Lanes.
That was some gripping TV: “Floyd here is a washing machine repairman from Benson with a 142 average, but today he rolled a 156. Floyd, you were really feelin’ out there, weren’t you?”
Love them both, but I would vote for Kent. I probably got in on Bremser more at the tale end of his career and I think he had Kent in the booth with him at one point. But Bremser was more of that old 60's and 70's style of being a great character in the booth, but missing details of the game.....who you got?
Agree Davison is to critical and has a whiny voice, id love to see Steve Taylor as the color commentator with Gregg SharpeLyle by a wide margin, Pavelka has never been good to listen to in my opinion. No a big fan of Davidson on the football broadcast either.
Lol... Bet you love John BishopPavelka turned me off long ago. Whines about calls too much in my opinion.
