Jim Donovan deserves this more than anyone. He’s been doing this for forever

[@Dustinsfishtanks]

He’s amazing

[@dgratt183]

Jim Donovan and Joe Tate, are Cleveland Legends!

[@BuckeyeNation1807]

I could not agree with you more. His passion for this team throughout the years has been unwavering!

[@westcountycrumudgeon5992]

Dickenson has been the analyst since 1984. Donovan pbp since 1999.

yes, "Dickenson" has been dicking around there for years...@@westcountycrumudgeon5992

Jim Donovan is special and I’m SO GLAD we have him calling our games. He’s a treat to listen to!

Man i want a 'building the browns' episode real bad after those games vs the steelers

“Not a bad start” *CLE leads 28-0 by 1st quarter*

The most excitement I've heard from him was on the run William run play..diek is a stats man..jd is play by play..pb & jelly

He's just "holding" back...

[@WallOBrix]

I hurt both my feet celebrating this TD. I jumped over the coach then ran into a table by accident and knocked over a trash can BUT IT WAS SOOOO WORTH IT

[@jabij1]

hahahaha

[@4th_and_Long]

I broke my toe on the 3rd TD. I told my friends I'd streak around the house of they scored again so I ripped off my top and pulled down my drawers and started running with my pants around my ankles and tripped over myself. The pain felt so good

[@daltonmullins7045]

I hit my hand on a running fan on the Jarvis TD. I feel you.

Woah. Heck of a coincidence finding you here, months later. Lol Almost didn't recognize you until I read the name.

contrast with Dieken's understatement of the year, "not a bad start"

[@jcoke22]

Not a Bad Start. What a Cleveland Treasure both of these men are. Wish Jimmy a speedy recovery!

[@clevelandbci9562]

No matter what team, Cleveland has the best play-by-play guys in the country.

[@utsr07]

Joe Tait was a legend for the Cavs. Too bad he retired before the 2016 title. Tom Hamilton's been doing radio for the Indians forever and always brings excitement. I remember listening to him and Herb Score during their World Series runs in '95 and '97.. And Jim Donovan is always exciting even when the Browns were lousy. Maybe they can bring him that Lombardi trophy in a few weeks and hear him go really crazy.

What a wild moment. I wish I could describe the sensation that jolted through my body the second that snap went over Ben's head. This game was pure magic; it's still hard to believe that it is real.

Settle down there, Doug! 😁

[@DanglingDingleBerry]

LMFAO! Was the stadium DJ playing "Heartbreaker" by Led Zeppelin after that bad snap and Browns TD? Not sure how I feel about something I love so much (Led Zeppelin, the greatest band in music history) being combined with something I hate more than anything else on Earth (the Sh!ttsburgh Squealers). I guess since they were playing it due to a Browns TD that makes it a good thing.

"Not a bad start." Doug So understated hahahaha

Why not show the reaction after we won? as a matter of fact since it was such a huge game and a huge moment in Browns history why not show all of it????

Not saying the browns didn't look good this year. Or in this game. But i think someone placed a huge bet on the steelers losing. Come on man to go down 28 nothing in the first quarter.

[@endtimeimages3284]

He didn’t catch the ball. Why was it a fumble?

[@JimmyFoxhound]

A botched snap is considered a fumble, no one has to catch it since it's not a pass. Think of someone running with the ball, they can toss it backwards and if the guy they tossed it to doesn't catch it the ball is still live so it's a fumble, not a pass.

[@endtimeimages3284]

@@JimmyFoxhound Thank you! Thumbs up for this good explanation!

[@thomaslloyd8306]

Steelers didn't even try to fall on the ball or recover it... WTF???

[@darrellschrock5547]

Almost seemed like 2 outfielders who miscommunicate on a pop-up. Both the qb and rb were thinking the other one would pick up the ball.

Hard time believing that wasn’t staged

[@nicksimich5718]

I had a hard time accepting Jim Donovan. He really pissed me off six years ago when he knew that Bernie kosar had a little bit too much to drink but was doing the preseason games with him. Bernie made a point that the New York Jets quarterback Clemens kept throwing crossing passes and that's what poor quarterbacks do. Jim Donovan walked Bernie kosar down that path to where Bernie started talking more s*** and then said Clemens parents should be ashamed of him. He kept aching him on to say more dumb s*** instead of during a commercial break being a friend and telling him hey man you're sounding loaded you're an icon around here why don't you just set the mic down and we'll say that you had a sickness and don't show up next week drunk. Nope he got a banned from the facility. I hear coz ours back and he's doing stuff for the browns but what Jim did to him six years ago was f***** up

They compliment each other well IMO. I love watching these bc Jimmy always looks back at him all excited and not quite sure what to do with his hands and Diek is just chilling with a half smile lmao

[@JamesHenryAnd]

Easy on Diek, he's getting up there in age. Won't be many more years with him as the color guy, and it would be nice to see them BOTH get some winning seasons in at long last.

[@butterflybluffhomesteadsmi4601]

Dieken is quiet as to not interrupt Donovan ;)

[@insertclevername4123]

@@JamesHenryAnd Agreed...the funny part is that I grew up listening to Dieken with the late, great Nev Chandler in the 80s, and he was always like that. I don't know why it works, but I've always liked listening to Nev or Jim go nuts on a play and then hearing Doug just chuckle or say something like, "What a throw!" It's not going to help me understand the intricacies of the play, but who cares?
