Meanwhile he brushes off the words of his nagging critics As juvenile stuff. was in Detroit yesterday speaking to the automotive Industry and the leaders of the City of Detroit stood and cheered me for having told the Yankee fans off in the second game Cosell said excoriated the Yankee stadium mob for its dangerous antics in the late innings of the game. Debris was hurled and one dodger player was injured. A smoke bomb was thrown on the Field and several fans bolted out of the men in Detroit said it was time someone had the strength and the Leader ship to say what i said Cosell reported. That kind of criticism by an announcer is rarely heard in baseball because the teams approve the on air people hired by local stations. Most of them Are House men More Public relations people than considers himself a reporter and he feels that part of his Job is telling the negative Side of what happens As Well As the positive. During the first game i told some Basic truths. The Yankees were not advancing base runners in the late innings and i said so. The Yankees were missing Opportunity after All of this led to criticism of Cosell for being a dodger fan. One new York television station reported thousands of Calls and the new York daily news reported it was getting Calls and renewed its Long standing anti Cosell commentary. It bothers my wife and my daughters a hell of a lot Cosell said. But this is Juve Nile stuff. This is garbage. It s not Worth recognizing. There is not a person in the United states who can listen to Howard Cosell and not know he knows what he s talking about. I feel very proud of what i be been doing and my company does t want me to noted that last year during the play offs Missouri sen. Thomas Eagleton accused him of being a Yankee fan.

San Antoniolli Cosell a red sox fan. One problem is that sports fans Don t want to hear anything negative about their teams. Like the King who Cut off the head of the runner who brought the bad news they attack any newsman or announcer or la so r a office Center stage for jesters continued from Page 19 50-year-old los Angeles skipper and the door is always open to them in contrast to the grim discordant atmosphere in the rival Yankee locker room the dodgers Are a free Wheeling Frankish group who act More like the movies bad news bears than a dignified major league team. Their therapy some of the highest priced Talent in Hollywood. Almost every night for the dodgers is Las vegas night. If they had to pay for the relaxation potion they could t afford it. Take our first game of the National league playoffs against Philadelphia says Lasorda. When we lost Don Rickles was one of the first Guys in the locker room. He started ribbing this player and that player. Pretty soon he had everybody in stitches. There was no Chance to get tense or Down hearted the dodgers chief celebrity Mascot is "01" Blue eyes Frank Sinatra a Rabid fan and close Friend of the manager. His is a special place in the organization. This was graphically illustrated in Friday night s game won by the Yankees 5-3, when just before the Star spangled Banner Lasorda strode across the Field in front of the record crowd of 55,992 and presented a Blue dodger Cap to the crooner sitting Back of the Yankee dugout. One Wall in Lasorda s office is the Frank Sinatra Wall containing Only Pic Tures of Sinatra. There Are nine of them. See that color portrait a gift from Bud Furillo a broadcaster in los an Geles explains Lasorda. The montage there was a gift from the players. No Pic Ture goes on that Wall unless Sinatra is in John Berardino a former St. Louis Browns player now starring in the to soap operas strolled in and plopped himself on the Couch. Shortly afterwards Ron Masak the Strong featured Guy you see in commercials appeared and opened a can of Beer. There was a lot of Small talk. Dodger players wandered in an out. Lasorda has nicknames for All of them Penguin for Little Ron Cey Popeye for Steve Garvey who has big forearm Spickles for Mike Garman. Pitcher Tommy John turned out the Light. Infielder Bill Russell handed a pack age of cigarettes crushed the pack with his Bare Teeth. Dodger locker room visitors include Tom Bosley of Happy Days dancer Gene Kelly Burt convey and James Darin among others. Fun is the name of the dodger game and the orchestrator is Lasorda himself a frustrated comedian. I got this weight problem says Tommy. I can t weight to win the world big eight players honoured Kansas City to. Up Colorado fullback James Mayberry with 250 Yards Rushing against Oklahoma state and Iowa state defensive end Craig Volkens with 14 tackles against Missouri were named As the big eight players of the week. Commentator who tries to Tell both sides of a Story. In los Angeles they want Vin Scully Cosell said. This is the result of 50 years of Doggerel parcelled out by local announcers and supported by the sporting Cosell Calls Seaver the Cincinnati reds Pitcher doing color commentary on the series a natural broadcast Talent. I be worked with a lot of jocks but this time i got a Guy with brains and some guts who takes some leadership said Howard. If you Don t like Cosell s style or his voice that s your opinion. But Don t criticize him for trying to be a reporter. That s one Breed that is of very Short Supply in sports television. Cosell is trying to give an objective description of sports which Are very subjective to most people. He is not a fan and for that we should be grateful. Abc to called its ratings on the first two games very Good. Tuesday night 65 million people tuned in to some portion of the game the network reported. The overnight ratings on wednesday night s game showed percentages of All to Homes watching were 39.4 per cent in new York 45.4 per cent in los Angeles and 28.5 per cent in Chicago. The share of audience in All Homes where sets were turned on showed 59 in new York 74 in los Angeles and 46 in Chicago. We re five share Points above the Abc coverage last year and our playoffs last year were five per cent More than Abc this year Cosell said. It should be noted that the first two games this year were night games compared with Day games in 1976. That makes a difference in number of viewers. Garagiola says Abc Crew Cosell butchering series Cincinnati up Veteran Abc sportscaster Joe Garagiola says he thinks the Abc broadcast Crew working this year s world series is butchering the Job. In a Cincinnati Post Story published Friday Garagiola who was part of the Abc Crew which telecast the world series last year was particularly critical of Howard Cosell. If i were Tom Seaver i d make sure Cosell shows up every Day even if i had to Send a cab for him. He makes Seaver look Good. Cosell is that dumb Garagiola said. Cincinnati Pitcher Tom Seaver is serv ing As a commentator for Abc during the series. Keith Jackson does play by play and Cosell offers his own commentary. They Are butchering the world series. Does t Cosell have anything to say except plugs for the coming Abc shows garage Ola said indicating he believed the plugs were the Only time Cosell s com ments were accurate. Garagiola said his television viewing of the series first two games was the first time i Ever talked Back to my to the sportscaster was in Cincinnati thursday to film several television commercials.
