The only thing better than Tom’s skill as an interviewer was his hair. And he was a great interviewer. Notice how he didn’t jump in and interrupt Cosell, who needed absolutely no help in making a point. But he could also be accommodating to other guests who weren’t nearly as articulate. And both of these guys - Howard and Tom - were excellent on the radio.

I'll be the first to admit that, as a young man, I found HC unpleasant, even angering. But I now mark his passing as a signal blow to, not only sports broadcasting, but broadcasting in the general. He truly spoke truth to power. Today, American journalism is in a terrible state; Cosell's passing didn't cause it -- but his death helped to usher in an era of quailing incompetence.

I grew up watching and listening to HC in the 1970s. Mr. Corsell was fearless in the broadcasting both. He never sugarcoated his commentaries. If he called a coach, manager, player, commissioner, owner or even a fan a useless idiot, unless they prove him wrong, he stood by his words. There was no apology, no cancel culture. It was just Mr. Cosell being himself, expressing his colorful opinion.

Boy, Cosell had a concept almost 50 years ago about what we now struggle with which is the almost end of free broadcast sports. You can't watch baseball without paying for a subscription service and the NFL is quickly moving into pay per view games on an increasing basis. NBA has escaped so far but will soon I'm sure be a part of it too. Howard had a great knowledge and a business understanding that was, and is still lacking in most sports announcers/analysts.
