truly sad news. jim and the tragedy at the munich olympics is what i always remember. the man was pure class the way he handled the events that unfolded.
i can also remember the very first wide world of sports.....i think it was the summer of 1962 because we had just moved to syracuse, ny and were staying in a motel while our home was being built.
jim will be missed very, very much

He was a fixture on Saturday & Sunday afternoons in our household on the ABC Wide World of Sports.He was one of the "Best of the Best".He will be missed.
Once upon a time, ABC had the likes of Jim McKay and Chris Schenkel. Jim and Chris are now in that great broadcast booth in the sky..................and now we have ESPN/ABC and are stuck with the likes of Chris Berman and Stuart Scott. We've come a long way baby. Not!!!
A true great in sports broadcasting.
"The thrill of victory... and the agony of defeat!"
He'll never be forgottten.
I have a 'Wide World of Sports' DVD, so I'll always have the memories.

I loved "Wide World of Sports" when I was a kid. The Munich Olympics was his finest moment in sports broadcasting. He brought humanity to a tragic event.
