The strides of Levitard.
I began calling games in my room when I was like 11, 10, 11 years old.
And I told you the Lambeau Field story and was actually our high school in Green Bay.
Had a radio station, 10 watts, reached 10 miles.
And I did games and I was starting when I was 14 and our high school games.
And then that led to some other work in the Green Bay area with commercial stations and then kind of heaped on itself.
But 14, what, 50, 50 years, 51 years or whatever.
I don't know what else I could do.
Actually, my wife said, what else could you do?
I said, there's nothing like that.
I don't know that I could do anything else.
I'm lucky I found something that at least I enjoy.
Well, I'm almost now to the point where I really want to just make sure that I am improving, as I mentioned, maintaining and not...
and not messing up in any way, because when you do, then that draws attention, and I just do not have that angle hit me.
So it's harder to leave, to do a game,
Not that I feel more pressure, but the business is changing and the stakes with these NFL games are so immense.
Like the numbers that are watching these games and the knowledge of the fans that are watching them have never been greater.
The fan has never been smarter and the viewership has never been higher.
And the league has never been held in such a position, I think, and continues to grow and is the most popular sport and doing two of those games every weekend.
It's the responsibility that probably drives me a little bit and making sure that I'm really buttoned down.
