Being from GA, I never got to really hear Jack in his prime. When at school in the 90s, I only really heard the post game show, and didn't really start to appreciate Jack until internet radio became my primary source of games. I grew up on a steady dose of Larry Munson (GA) and "Hunker Down one more time", Al Ciraldo (GA Tech) and "toe touches leather.... good", and the Braves holy trinity (Skip, Pete, and Ernie). There is nothing more reassuring than a familiar voice describing the action on the field. The one thing all of these greats had in common is their unabashed love of the game, love of the team, love of the fans, and the ability to let you know the mood of the game with just a tone or a phrase. Jack was the last great voice of southern sports and will truly be missed.
