    I don't think announcers should be judged so much if they have their one or two great moments because so much of that is dictated on people's response to it, a thing outside of their control. Al had been the voice of Monday Night Football for twenty years and Sunday Night Football for sixteen years, both of which at their times marked marquee game of the week typically. His passion, emotion, chemistry with (most) of his partners, and probably most importantly for him- his wit- made him one of the very best ever. I think the top five play-by-play announcers on tv for the NFL are Michaels, Dick Enberg, Don Criqui, Sam Rosen, and Dick Stockton.

    The thing they aren’t talking about with John Madden is his educating presence. He literally taught courses on how to watch football. He simplified the game. The reason he seemed to be stating the obvious is because he has taught us so well that it has become obvious. He was also always teaching for the new fan. Stan Lee once said, “every comic is someone’s first.” Madden took that approach to calling football

    Pat Summeral was an analyst on Ray Scott's broadcasts for several years. As a play-by-play announcer, Summeral was Scott with a deeper voice, a slightly more refined delivery, and, certainly, with a more colorful partner in John Madden. Summeral and Madden made up the best, most recognizable network television announcing team in the history of the NFL. But Summerall's decision to most closely model Ray Scott proved invaluable when Pat transitioned from analyst to play-by-play announcer.

Those guys are and were the best at what they did which was narrate a game in their own styles and with their own emotions.

He wears a hooded sash, With a silver hat about his head, And a bristling black mustache. He growls as he storms the country, A villain big and bold. And the trees all shake and quiver and quake, As he robs them of their gold. The Autumn Wind is a Raider, Pillaging just for fun. He'll knock you 'round and upside down, And laugh when he's conquered and won." ~_~

    If you're gonna have Verne Lundquist and Harry Kalas on this list - both of whom I admire - you also gotta have Frank Herzog. He is at least as identifiable with the NFL at its best as them.

    My favourite announcers when watching games on TV here in England were Pat Summerall & John Madden both of them were absolute dynamite together. When it comes to announcers who call different sports some are good, some are not so good but very few become legendary & are synonymous with the sport they called Murray Walker in Formula 1, Ken Squier in NASCAR & for me when it comes to football John Facenda fits right in in that rare, exclusive club, he is THE voice of football.

    Is Keith Jackson going to make this list? I missed him on Monday Night Football. Curt Gowdy belongs on this list! Verne Lundquist was a great broadcaster! I tried my hand at broadcasting. Doing a football game is not easy, not easy at all! Lundquist was great! Bless his heart is such a southern expression and Verne did that perfectly. Harry Kalas had a super voice for football. I really enjoyed listening to him. Merrill Reese clearly loved the Eagles. So what? I lived in NJ, close to Philadelphia and was an Eagles fan for a time. I never heard Mr. Reese though. Too bad. He sounds great. I don't know Bill King either. Regardless, he sounds great here. In his favor, I was a Raiders fan back then, but I was either working or working out, all the time back then. I got scores from friends I worked with. I was getting in shape to join the military. Sorry, Mr. King. Al Michaels. Hmmm. Yeah, no. I just can't stand the guy. What gets me watch those broadcasts was Cris Collinsworth, who I've met. Cris is the nicest guy ever. I saw him play in Cincinnati when I went to high school there for 2 years and met my wife. So, I only watch those games too hear Cris Collinsworth, not Al Michaels. Not Al Michaels at all. I've heard stories about him, that's he's a jerk to crew members and staff. So, I'm not a fan. I have listened to Myron Cope. He broadcast for the favorite team of my hero, my Cherokee grandfather. He loved the Steelers. He just loved that team. I've said before, I'm so glad my grandfather got see the Steelers win Super Bowls. He was so happy about that. I loved Howard Cosell! My father despised Howard. That gave me impetus to like him even more. I loved his vocabulary. That added so much to his broadcasts. He told it like it was, and I loved him for that. His mixing with Ali was awesome. I read his book when I was a kid and found it fascinating. Madden and Sumerall were perfection as football announcers. That team was just the very best. I heard some questioning of Sumerall as a play by play announcer. And I call BS on that. Pat Sumerall was awesome, just amazing. Then to add John Madden? Over the top, the best! Yes, John Fasenda had The Voice of professional football. Period. He was synonymous with pro football for me. I miss him very much. He had a way of adding drama, bringing emotions, and color to any football game. He is sorely missed from NFL Films. Requiescat in pace, John Fasenda.

    Nice picks all. Two points. Growing up in Northeast Ohio, 35 or 40 miles from the Pennsylvania border, I could occasionally pick up Myron Cope doing Steelers games. What a Homer, and that voice. Man is that annoying. But the scratchiness was all him. The accent is all that general area. I’ve had a couple of aunts living in the Steubenville area (about 30 miles west of Pittsburg on the Ohio side of the Ohio river). I can hear their accent in Copes voice, so despite the annoying screechiness of his voice and the fact he works for the Steelers ( I hate Pittsburg)., he gets a pass because of that accent. Now Howard had a ridiculous vocabulary and I always remember, no matter what sport he was broadcasting, he would always shout, “But wait, right there”! I knew when it was coming to an end. Howard started to no longer make sense. I remember Howard saying some gibberish that made no sense and Frank replying,”What,” pausing a few seconds and repeating, “What, “ as if to say, what on earth are you talking about? They went to commercial and it wasn’t mentioned again, but it was an uncomfortable moment. Howard had been making less sense at that point and Frank publicly noted it that night. You knew the end was near for Howard. He was truly a legend, though.

    No way Tony Romo is already a legendary voice. Way too early in his career. Kevin Harlan is more known for basketball. Not having Bill King on your list is practically criminal and who the heck is Alan Roach? The rest of your list isn’t too bad although John Facenda should remain at number one
