IAN EAGLE can do it all. He calls NFL games on CBS. He announces New Jersey Nets games for the YES Network. He even has his own Sports Broadcasting School. He never met a game he couldn’t announce.
I spoke with him on a lot of topics. The Cleveland Cavaliers, the state of the NBA Slam Dunk contest, LeBron James, the New Jersey Nets, the Cleveland Browns, Mike Holmgren, and some of his favorite moments while announcing.
Some highlights from the interview:
“Do Cleveland Browns fans blame me for their dismal seasons?”
“The NBA will seriously consider getting rid of the Slam Dunk contest.”
