Legendary sports broadcaster Dick Enberg died yesterday at the age of eighty-two. The Michigan native grew up dreaming of playing right field for the Detroit Tigers, a job, he always acknowledged, went to his contemporary Al Kaline. Many people have been sharing many special memories of Enberg, who broadcast baseball, tennis, and nearly every other sport in a career that spanned five decades and earned him many awards and accolades. In addition, Enberg may be the most prominent graduate of Central Michigan University, although Jeff Daniels may give him a run for his money. An off-the-cuff ranking of the most famous Chips:
- Jeff Daniels
- Dick Enberg
- Clark Howard
- Dan Majerle
- Tom Crean
- Chris Kaman
- Dan LeFevour
- Alveda King
- Ray Bentley
(Opening up the list to non-graduating attendees would add Antonio Brown and J. J. Watt.)
