Believe it or not, many years ago (actually, there should be about 100 "manys") I broadcast HS basketball (and even a few small college games) on a local radio station back in Illinois (Aurora). Although I don't remember too much about it, (at my age, I have trouble remembering what happened before lunch) I know I got some very nice comments from listeners and especially from a guy who identified himself as an official. He said I actually gave the proper names to the fouls I described and that was rare in those days. I think most of my "accuracy" was because the guy I worked with on the air was a former official who had retired. I wish I would have stuck with it. Maybe if I had, I'd be as famous as Bent Hamburger.
