    Emmitt Smith once said he'd like a similar post-football career; working as a congestman then moving his way up to carabiner secretary.

    He served as the Tigers TV play-by-play man for most of the '80s and '90s, but could never hold a candle to his legendary radio counterpart.


    Actually, he was there in the 60's and 70's as well. In the early sixties, Kell and Harwell were teamed on all the broadcasts because there weren't a lot of TV games. They were simply superb together. Plus, their names rhymed.

    I know what it's like to feel old, Dash. Just the other day I realized I'm entitled to everything. Then I lost control of my bowels.

    "He was a famous Tiger, but never quite as lauded as Cobb or Geringher or even Al Kaline"


    He should have mauled a magician at a Vegas show.

    "there are no classic rants or blunders available on YouTube"


    Back in his playing days, it was radio version called YouTune, and it came on right after Little Orphan Annie
