Then, Kalas’ deep-throated voice

That voice guy was one lucky fella. Sorry, I didn’t have a choice in the matter

25. ALCOA PRESENTS … FANTASTIC FINISHES:
The words immediately grabbed your attention at the tail end of an NFL broadcast in the 1980s. Upon the two-minute warning of the fourth quarter, Harry Kalas’ unmistakable voice announced the coming of that day’s “FAN-tastic finish.” Then, Kalas’ deep-throated voice detailed harrowing escapes from impossible situations. Roger Staubach’s Hail Mary pass to Drew Pearson against the Vikings in 1975 was on regular rotation, as was Franco Harris’ Immaculate Reception and Steve Bartkowski leading the Falcons to a huge fourth-quarter comeback against the Packers. The Alcoa commercials came before ESPN Classic, HBO Sports, the NFL Network and the Internet, during the days when sports fans were not numb to dramatic, game-winning plays because they didn’t come at us on a daily basis. –B.T.

I always enjoyed the Alcoa commercials during the two minute timeout when I was a kid in the 80s. IRRC, it was last second comebacks and Alcoa had like a five second intro at the beginning of the commercial. These were the golden years.

i see the troll was eliminated haha

Falcao is a solid player, I think Porto missed him this year. They won the league again this year but but fizzled out in Europe, despite having most of the same cast. Of course, they didn’t have AVB at the helm either

But I’m glad he’s having success
