Mik,

Very sad day indeed.  MB told me he was the longest running sports announcer for one team (34 years).  His Terrible Towel legacy will live on indefinetly.  We were listening to him announce a game a few years back when the Steelers were playing Tampa Bay.  I guess he got excited and forgot they are the Buccaneers, and called them the Tampa Bays.  We haven't called TB by the Bucs since.

He was one of the last great sports announcers, if not THE last.
