Someone pointed out that Dick Enberg and Curt Gowdy are the only two ever to call a Super Bowl and a Final Four. So I'll be the third. I get a kick out of putting my name in the same sentence as those other two giants.
My father is truly always by my side.
My father was very athletic. He was a life-of-the-party kind of guy - walked into the room and there was a presence about him. He was a great storyteller, just a terrific sense of humor. Having said that, he never put all of those talents or abilities into some public arena. He was never interviewed, never on television. His family was everything.
As my father went through a really, really long and dark period of his health declining and falling deeper into the abyss, I knew I was never going to let my family and my children experience this without any long-term care.
I had first-hand experience watching my father's health decline over the stretch of 13 years.
Every little crazy dream that I had has come true, and more. And I'm always mindful that this is not a birthright, that one day I would have the chance to come to Augusta every year. Just a crazy, really, almost obsession for me.
People think I can really play golf, but it's actually been almost an albatross for me. I really struggle not only to break 80, but sometimes to break 90.
I think I shot 78 one time. My golf game is so overrated.
People think I can just walk out and shoot 75 without taking a warm-up shot. But believe me, it's not that easy.
I think when you have a National Championship Game, a Super Bowl, a Final Four, a World Series, I don't see why there is any reason to pick out one individual as the MVP because it is about a team winning a championship. Maybe that best explains what I believe in at the core in my work as a broadcaster.
I could care less about identifying who the MVP is in a championship game.
I love being a part of CBS.
I'm loyal to CBS. They have been loyal to me.
I used to write letters to Jim McKay in college. 'Wide World of Sports' was this travelogue, really, that introduced us to sports and it introduced us to parts of the world that we had never seen before. And no one was a bigger tour guide than Mr. McKay.
The Masters is always at the front and center of my mind, and not because I'm the only one thinking about it. Other people associate me with this great event, and that's an honor.
I loved Tom Landry and Roger Staubach.
I have a pretty good memory.
I would like to work 50 Masters Tournaments.
I love what I do. Every show is it's own challenge and I love it.
To me, I'm a storyteller.
