It was a funny way of describing the scene unfolding to the viewers who couldn't see what was happening on the field. He was running faster than the police trying to catch him at that point, and they were making football play by play calls as a joke. It was a hilarious way to fill up what would have otherwise been dead air, and it was some quick thinking on his part. Kevin Harlan is a commentating genius, and a gift to the sport. He turned an otherwise boring event for tv and radio viewers into probably the best part of the game. If someone pictured anything other than a white man with a giant beer belly running across the field, then that is on them, because that is the only thing I think of when these people do this. And I am white, so I am not hating on white people. Just look in the stands and see who the drunken fans are that the camera zooms in on, and you will understand why I get that picture in my head. People need to stop hate baiting, when no hate is intended. Look at the field. Look at the fans. Think about it.

People tend to forget the Saints had (illegally) rattled the shit out of Favre and injured his throwing foot in the 3rd quarter, but he continued to play. A healthy Brett Favre would have never thrown a pass like that.

Harlan used to call the Chiefs games for years. He's one of the best. What's cool about him is that he can be the "play by play" guy or the "color analyst" at the same time. His enthusiasm is great. I'd love to see him and Tony Romo call a game sometime

There was one Al did late on a SNF game where a team was leading big late and he said something along the lines of “and so a first down here will salt away the victory or I’ll say a line I haven’t said since 1980.” Always loved that one.

Bill King was the king of Oakland sports. He had so many classic calls. This was among his best. The 'Old Man Willie' call from SB XI is probably the best known call.
