Yep, I actually went to Church with the Cadenaughs. We used to take our kids there on the Christmas season. They had this “storybrook” lane which my kids loved…horsedrawn carriage, a theatre showing all those Christmas claymation cartoons nonstop. Went there for a 4th of July picnic one year replete with a stunning us history pageant. Very very fond memories. My Dad and Mom moved to Portland in 1976 when I was a junior in High School.

Born and raised in LA, I didn’t realize how special we had it with Vin Scully doing the Dodgers, Dick Enberg calling Rams games and the great Chick Hearn on the Lakers. It was only when I moved away in 74 and listened to other announcers that I realized how good they were.
I was also quite surprised how biased other city’s announcers were. It was never in doubt that our three were fans of the team, but they were never homers, and they called games very objectively.

Sorry if I touched a nerve. But he was an alcoholic who used his celebrity status to expedite his medical procedure, presumably at the expense of someone without his public status. And he was vastly overrated as a PBP man, due in part to his prime years occurring during the NFL's peak period, IMO. I've seen another post in this thread referring to his biased commentary, also. If you refuse to acknowledge that, that indicates you just don't want to hear it.
