Al Michaels has seemingly been the voice of just about every significant American sports moment in the last four decades. Among other moments, he called the “Miracle On Ice” during the 1980 Winter Olympics, the San Francisco World Series earthquake in 1989, and the Malcolm Butler game-ending interception in Super Bowl 49.
So when Michaels, now age 78, says he’s not really bothered by outside criticisms, he almost certainly means it. He’s been around way too long to pay attention to random opinions of his broadcasting work.
