Which person has been affiliated with the Jazz longer than anybody else? Hot Rod Hundley. He's probably one of the better, definitely one of the most unique play-by-play announcers. I sometimes forget about him ever since the Jazz made the switch to having the radio broadcast be apart from the tv one. Here are some of my favorite Hod Rod-isms:
"With a gentle push, and a mild arc, the old cowhide globe hits home."
"Leapin' leaner."
"Calkorver."
"Hippity-hop."
"Frozen rope."
"Belt-high dribble."
"You gotta love it, baby!"
And my favorite: "The young rookie."
