The best was the 'cooking the upset' in the Denver game earlier this year. I also enjoy his creative word choice in his broadcasts. I would be lying if I didn't say that imitating his touchdown call is one of the more consistent drunken subplots between friends and I.Īs for the Raiders guy, Greg Pappa, he is kind of annoying, but it truly is funny sometimes when he makes the call with all the enthusiasm of a gamebreaking score when in reality the Raiders are just scoring late in the 4th to break the shutout. It would be a shame if he never gets to call a superbowl. The audio clip provided was a good one, but he missed some of the accentuations on the KAN-SAH CITY that really are his trademark. His call is at its best when he gets that low throttling sound, like you are saying hmmmm, except deep down using your chest. There are few more inspiring sounds I know than Mitch's TD call I've noticed many other radio men will use the team mascot instead of the city they represent. In a way, he is suggesting that this isn't just a great moment for a s a great moment for a community.and everyone who loves Kansas City. What I think is most significant about his call, is his saying 'Touchdown, Kansas City' instead of 'Touchdown, Chiefs'. Of course, I'm not being completely objective here. Mitch's call on the winning LJ TD was featured in ESPNs 'Pump up the Volume' montage today and he sounded so awesome compared to the others. When I hear sound bites of other team's play by play, they just seem so uninspiring compared to Mitch. So, all I know is Mitch and Lenny.I never heard Harlan or anyone previous to him.īut, Its become quite clear to me that we have one of the best play-by-play men in the league. I've been listening to coverage for about a season and a half.

Let me preface by saying I'm new to the Chiefs radio network.
