| | Gowdy's finest hour was Super Bowl III - Sports - The Washington Times, America's Newspaper (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) |
 | | For me, though, it's Curt Gowdy, NBC's play-by-play man, calling Sports Illustrated's Tex Maule a word that can't be used in this newspaper after the telecast was over -- but before the videotape machine had been turned off. |
