This is Myron Cope on sports, I loved his show and the way he called a game. Make a boring game exciting. He was a good guy who was a fan of the game.When he called a play you thought you where sitting next to a buddy listening to the game

Always sad to see legendary folks die - BUT if I had to hear him say "the bal-tey-more boidies" when talking about the Ravens, I could have shot him! <g> When the Ravens first came to Baltimore, most of the games were not on television and I had to listen to them on PA radio.

I grew up in Pittsburgh in the 70's when the Stiller's were unbeatable. Would always listen to the radio broadcast instead of the TV because of Myron Cope. A legend in Pittsburgh. He will be missed, yoi - no, Double Yoi! (those from da burgh will understand...)
Women and cats will do as they please. Men and dogs should just get used to that fact and relax

Wendy is from Freedom just outside Pittsburgh and knew who he was right away she also mentioned the terrible towel. I can't stand watching sports on TV unless it involves engines except Nascar ,that to me is like watching paint dry. I never heard of him.
I learned all I need to know about life by killing smart people and eating their brains. Eat right ,Exercise ,Stay fit, Die Anyway!
