    He cut back last year, so it shouldn't be a great surprise...

    Story indicates it is an immediate move.

    What a voice and passion.

    Hunker down, Larry.

    Strangely enough, Alabama was the first game he missed last year as well. I get the feeling he has to be in bad, bad shape to let Central Michigan be his swan song.

    His voice was the soundtrack to much of my youth.

    One of the most memorable radio calls in history.

    As someone else said, hunker down, Larry.

    "Lindsay Scott! Lindsay Scott! Lindsay Scott!"

    Goosebumps forever on that one.

    Just got back from St. Simons on Saturday. If I'd known Larry was going to call it quits, I would have destroyed some property in his honor. ;D
