I prefer Fowler's subtle references to the "experts in the desert."

Betting is legal in Austrailia, TAB all over the place like 7-11's. I spent most of the 2000 olympics betting tab or nab whatever it was. 1.85 on NFL which is like -117

Only sort of true. He set the bogus can up with a fake pic, so it was his to begin with.

What is TAB?

TAB is the Australian sportsbook -- you go into TAB locations and fill out a betting slip (similar to a US lottery card in a gas station) and it goes through the machine and you get your ticket.

And I thought TAB was a soft drink from back in the day.

I used to consider Fowler the no doubt about it star at ESPN.

Now I don't watch ESPN. Has that changed?

Fowler is the best at what he does.

Especially when he's well-prepared for an assignment like the Heisman Trophy show.

You knew Fowler would be a star from his days of Scholastic Sports America.

Chris Fowler is in and Steve Levy is out as No. 2 play-by-play man on ESPN's expanding "Monday Night Football." Fowler is admittedly on the far side of his career arc but the deletion of Levy from any broadcast platform is a win for opponents of blowhard audio annoyance. ...

summerall and brookshier were drunk and solid, much preferable to the on-the-wagon summerall and madden.

I can't hear the name Chris Fowler without recalling the night in late June, 1991 where we showed up at the "Hall of Fame" (We called it "Hall of Shame") bar in Southington, about 2 miles West of the ESPN "Campus" at around 12:45A.

I was the first one to get there and the place was closed. I was sent their first to see if they were still open. They were closing for the night but when they asked who was there I said "ESPN" and they opened the door and let me in. Within the next 15-ish minutes I was joined by about a dozen, or so, colleagues. The bartenders stayed and poured and poured and poured alcohol for all there..........except me and 1 other - since I do not drink all that much. The kitchen was closed so they gave us some bags of chips. I was the FIRST one to leave at around 3A. The guys did not charge us for anything but we tipped them plenty. The opened up the foosball tables for us. Fowler was one of those there that night/morning.

One of the stories I remember the most...............and one that no one got in trouble for because back then video cameras were not like they were now. If the cops had shown up that place probably gets shut down that night.
