And I concur
Anyhow, I will still have good memories of KJ's phrases in full flow .... 2 more
"Katie Bar the Door"
"And the Wheels Have Come off The Wagon"

The senality aside my problem with KJ has always revolved around his open dislike of Woody and OSU in general. He was heard to say after a game in Columbus one time "Lets get out of here, I can't stand the smell" or something to that effect.
Comibine that with his scUM loving bull[censored] and I have little to no use for the [censored]er. His "legend" status means exactly dick to me.
The fact he has become a cartoon charachter for the whole world to see is a fitting end in my book.

announcers
here's my 2cents:
How can you not like Fouts a little bit after watching Water Boy??
He basically makes fun of himself.
I'm old enough to remember Curt Gowdy calling (Ohio State split end) Bruce Jankowski "Janowicz" in the 69 Rose Bowl. Of course, the entire game he could not tell where the ball was, but that was due to Kern's excellent handiwork and bootlegging.
Back in the 60s (like the 1968 final four run) we used to get tired of Jimmy Crum (How about That!!!! It's a Real Barn Burner!!!!) on channel 4, so we would turn down the TV sound and listen to Martin Petry on WMNI AM. He was a scream!
The only thing that really bugs me about Keith Jackson is that he "retired" about 6 years ago! then, they brought him back to do an "occasional" West Coast game. Holy crap, aren't there enough good announcers (please no Lee Corso) out there that we don't need poor old KJ??
I'd like to kick Keels every time he says "absotively". Keels, buddy, it's not funny anymore!
And finally, I miss Woody's TV show, where he would bring out two or three of his players and all they were allowed to say was "Yes, coach" "No, coach" "That's right, coach" or (Champ Henson), "I saw the goal line pass underneath me, coach!".
Musberger doesn't bother me, and I actually think Danielson likes our program.
Peace out! Go Bucks

odd, he fell to the ground all peaceful like for will smith directly after mr. jackson's comment... personally i thought the combination of the comment and the play after was halarious.

I remember hearing that and pictured my Latin teacher from high school yelling at him like she did me. I dunno Dan Fouts would say "I came, I saw, I conquered." He should've said "Venit, Vidit, Vicit." Thought I would lay some knowledge on all of you.

How about this quote from Keith?:
"Rest easy Woody, the new man has arrived."
