No comparison. I remember walking around the upper deck during the 2nd half of the Raiders game. Strangers were hugging saying "I don't believe it, we're going to the Super Bowl." Sunday was epic. That day in OP was once in a lifetime.
No offense, and I like Murph, but one of the best play by play guys in the league? Not even close. Listen to Greg Papa of the Raiders or Brad Schamm of the Cowboys. They're both in a different league than Murph.
San Francisco. I felt the energy of the place on the plane as it left Philly. I literally had to pull over a few times driving in awe. Passed through several times. Between the beauty and the really cool people, it felt like home.
It funny. I rewatched this game in August. After all these years I viewed it in a detached way. Just as a football game. Those two plays you referenced really stood out. Along with the drive before when Reed dropped a ball over the middle wide open on 3rd and 1. They had no answer for Thurman on those 1st half drives. He was ripping off yards in chunks. They got away from him and then ran out of possessions. Ah, memories.
Pats broadcast was way better when Gil Santos was doing the call.
Best now is the Raiders Greg Papa. He's not afraid to call them out when they're playing poorly. He roasted Cooper during the Broncos game lol.
I knew he came back for a few games last season and I thought things were looking up. This sucks. He was a total pro and pulled off something really difficult. Being unassuming yet giving it a big game feel. RIP.
I know someone who bought a Sabres yellow and blue recliner with the Slug on it. With shipping to California, it totaled 2 grand. Idiot purchase for sure lol.
