GOD BLESS THE BEST BASKETBALL ANNOUNCER THAT EVER LIVED. Aman to that! I am no laker fan but Chick was one of the greatest, the best one liner, the mustard is off the Hotdog.

As a listener ,Chick actually had 100's of
oneliners...the ones quoted amused Chick
himself and became regular oral icons .
It should be said as well about this great
man,he called it accurately but in a way
that made the Lakers to a man, play better.
Pre or post interviews complimented and held
accountable the last nights game . He had no
equal. Rest in peace and God bless your family

Aman to that! I am no laker fan but Chick was one of the greatest, the best one liner, the mustard is off the Hotdog.My feelings exactly, and as a Midwestener and St Louis Cardinals baseball fan, this sad story brings back and amplifies the pain and loss many of us felt with the passing of Jack Buck a couple of months ago.
Interesting how everyone who met either gentleman talks about what genuinely nice people they were.
The sports world has truly lost a couple of irreplaceable broadcasting icons this summer
