I had the pleasure of interviewing Max a couple of times during my spell at Kansas. I was interviewing him because I was a young sports caster working for KJHK at the time. He was without question one of the nicest people I ever met and he was more than accommodating with his time to try to help a young man find his way. It was especially special to me because, like so many of you, I grew up listening to him on the radio. My career took me in a different path, in that I did not end up in sports broadcasting but the few moments that I got to spend with him had a lasting impression on my life.

RIP Max. A perfect gentleman.

Between Max with the 'Hawks and Denny with the Royals I have been blessed ever since the old transistor under the covers days...

I went searching for games on YouTube called by Bob & Max but didn't find anything on initial search.

In the later years of his life Max stayed in some of the comfiest looking sweaters.

One of my life goals is to live long enough that I get to the point where I'm cold all the time and can wear sweaters to hot buildings.

I'm sweating just thinking of wearing a sweater to AFH.
I only came to kick some ass...
