    My favorite call by him was during a playoff game involving my favorite team that included an extended period of frenetic end-to-end action. Finally, after a stoppage in play, during a pause in which everyone was catching their breath and trying to make sense of what all had just transpired, he simply said, "Isn't this fun?" Yes, Doc. Yes it was. Thanks.
