          Irv was the best. My memory is bad but I think he was with Brent Musberger and Phyllis George.

                            • Former Viking Coach Jerry Burns dies today at the age of 94...a great guy who was truly salt of the earth. Good players were all "Big Knockers"...he was a hoot.

                              He had one of the greatest post game rants ever, it's almost 5 minutes long, but well worth the watch. RIP Burnsie...
