    Listened to the Brewers broadcasts a lot over the years. Became a fan of the Brewers and especially Uecker in college 40+ years ago. Still listened to the Brewers broadcasts through last season. He had a great life and brought joy to many people.

    Lotta memories sitting on my grandpa’s lap and watching the brewers on a 12” tv in his back room. I can almost taste the Shasta root beer.

    “Oh my goodness! Holy cow, do you believe it?”

    For most of my childhood I thought Euchre was named after Bob as I’d never seen the name of the game written down.

    Yep, Him and Harry Karry,
    Sports announcing will never be the same

    Harry Doyle in the Major Leagues is priceless.

    RIP
