| 0:00.0 | Right now, we are joined by the only broadcaster to be recognized with an Emmy Award in sports, |
| 0:06.1 | news, and entertainment. In fact, he is a 28-time Emmy Award winner, a primetime host for a record |
| 0:13.2 | 11 Olympic Games on NBC, host and play-by-play voice for numerous World Series, NBA Finals and |
| 0:19.5 | Super Bowls, the 2018 Ford C. Frick Award |
