I miss hearing his play by plays over the radio when I wasn't watching live or on TV. Now every time I hear "Bitter Sweet Symphony" (by the Verve), I always think of Bill King and the video tribute they used to play for him during the games at the Coliseum a few years ago. It was one of those things that would always just help put a smile on my face.

What's even cooler is that my boy recently got me his bobblehead as a gift and it has him wearing flip flops with like 7 different calls, including the classic 20 game win streak.
