Play-by-play analyst for the Patriots; covered Celtics road games in the 80's with Bob Cousy (was it channel 56 or 38? I don't remember...); over 36 years in TV/radio broadcasting.
98.5 FM had a few specials on him and Gino Cappaletti during Christmas eve/day as they recapped his Pats years (I think they're doing another this New Years eve and day), and they both will be honored at the coin toss this Sunday in Gillette.
Should be an emotional one, no doubt.
Who will replace him? Tough shoes to fill.
Thanks for the years, Gil and Gino!! I enjoyed them all.
