RIP Pat Summerall
 
If you grew up with football in the 70's and on, he was THE man...struggled with a few demons but seemed like a genuinally good person.

before there was ESPN, there was Pat Summerall and Tom Brookshier. Must see TV. RIP.

They could drink you under the table too.

One of the great play-by-play voices ever in broadcasting. RIP.

Side note: I'll also remember his voice from the early Madden games, especially when somebody got hurt.

*snap* Oh no.. There's a man down.
