Anybody who doesn't think I want the Lakers to win is a fool. But I'm no homer.

I do something that I don't think anyone else does. I warm up before a game. Baseball and basketball players warm up, so why shouldn't the announcer warm up?

I always like to pretend two things: one, I'm sitting in the seat beside you watching the game together. I'll say, 'Wasn't that a great shot? Boy, it sure was.' The other thing I do is pretend I'm talking to people who are non-sighted. I try to create a word picture. I get more mail from blind people thanking me.

I think anybody who bets on horses and says they win is probably a liar.

I didn't think it would be that quick, or on a homer by him.

I want winners. I want people who want to win.
