RIP: Pat Summerall



Pat Summerall, the legendary NFL play-by-play man who worked a record 16 Super Bowls, has died at the age of 82, according to multiple reports.

He began working for CBS in 1961 and stayed there for 31 years before moving to Fox for the final eight years of his career.

Summerall spent much of his time honing a fantastic chemistry with the most famous football analyst in history, John Madden, and tributes have begun pouring in on social media from those who associate Summerall with the big-time football games of their youth.

You deserve a metal for healing with Madden for all those years.

Funny you say that - he was actually the commentator on some of the earlier John Madden video games
