"Oh my"

Seems to be fitting. He had his bags packed and was waiting for a ride......
Rest In Peace Mr. Enberg.
We are all walking toward that moment. Ho Ho Ho ..... Merry Christmas

Nice idea, Kaiser. WZ wrote a great song in 2000 that your post immediately made me think of.
My Ride's Here
I was staying at the Marriott
With Jesus and John Wayne
I was waiting for a chariot
They were waiting for a train
The sky was full of carrion
"I'll take the mazuma"
Said Jesus to Marion
"That's the 3:10 to Yuma
My ride's here..."
The Houston sky was changeless
We galloped through bluebonnets
I was wrestling with an angel
You were working on a sonnet
You said, "I believe the seraphim
Will gather up my pinto
And carry us away, Jim
Across the San Jacinto
My ride's here..."
Shelley and Keats were out in the street
And even Lord Byron was leaving for Greece
While back at the Hilton, last but not least
Milton was holding his sides
Saying, "You bravos had better be ready to fight
Or we'll never get out of East Texas tonight
The trail is long and the river is wide
And my ride's here"
I was staying at the Westin
I was playing to a draw
When in walked Charlton Heston
With the Tablets of the Law
He said, "It's still the Greatest Story"
I said, "Man I'd like to stay
But I'm bound for glory
I'm on my way
My ride's here..."

Not only was Mr Enberg a HOF broadcaster, he was a better person, very humble and kind.

Here here Jackdaniels 88
Remember him doing the UCLA BB games on channel 5 during the last part of the Wooden era.
They were "tape delayed" then so Saturday night games came on at 10pm
He was such a class act and good at so many sports!

Dick Lane did wrestling on Wednesday night from the Olympic. Dick Enberg did boxing from the Olympic the next night. Good times as a kid. “Whoa Nelly” and “oh my”.

Sounds like you enjoyed the Dicks.
