  • Back then we had Ernie Harwell and George Kell doing the Tigers, Bruce Martyn with the Red Wings, a young George Blaha with the Pistons, Bob Reynolds doing the Lions, and Ufer.

    Cripes, how could you *not* turn into a rabid sports fan?

  • When Michigan played on TV you turned down the volume and listened to Bob Ufer. His pregame talks with Bo were the best, even humbling Bo with his facts.

  • My Grandpa played football with Bob at Michigan and they were pretty good friends. He passed away last month and among his other things, I found a talking Bob Ufer bobblehead he had. Pretty fkn awesome.

  • THE HUMAN TORPEDO!

  • Nothing against Frank Beckmann....But I wish we had someone like Ufer doing the games now...

  • I became a Bob Ufer fan when I was 9 years old. My Dad, brother, sister and I were sitting in the car an outdoor A&W stand in Kalamazoo, and we were listening to the Michigan-OSU game. Dennis Franklin was the quarterback; this was 10-10 tie in which he broke his collarbone. I remember that I just loved hearing Bob Ufer (at the time I thought his name was Bob BUFORD!) call the game, and instantly became a fan. I still love his Uferisms; I still call that place in Columbus the "Snakepit"!

  • Bob Ufer was the greatest he made me a Michigan fan when I heard him at 13 and 42 years later I still am a Miiiiiiiichigan fan! Go Blue!

  • Thanx for the memories benny....GO BLUE!!!!!!

  • @Bubba33Thomas

    I can still see them after all these years. Leach destroyed OSU while he was there (unfortunately). Obviously I am an OSU fan, but I still think Ufer was great and I miss the 10 year war.

  • May God Bless Bob's Cotton pickin Maize & Blue Michigan heart!

  • I was a die hard Buckeye living in Michigan from 77-81. Before ESPN or DirecTV, if I wanted football, I had to listen to UM. Bob Ufer was the BEST. Loved to listen... (Go Bucks)!

  • ufer was great. for more fun listen to the voice of the dawgs the legendary larry munson.
