[edit]

The youtube link to Moss "lighting has pants on fire" has no video (just a photo of his face) and him "coughing up", no pants being lit on fire, far as I can tell. :p

i think the video should be taken off

When opposing players, e.g., Bill Laimbeer, would overreact to being touched by a Celtic (faked stumbling, faked falling down, faked pain, faked blood), Most would often compliment their acting by calling them Stanislavski or accusing them of pulling a Stanislavski acting bit. He would then express incredulous outrage that the refs had fallen for the act and called the foul. I don't have any specific examples (from tapes or videos) but maybe someone else can pull some out. In incredible "homer", Most had the voice you loved to hate. AdderUser (talk) 20:03, 11 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Health Issues

[edit]

As I recall, Most was a heavy smoker. Late in his broadcast career, he got raspier and raspier and would occasionally lose his voice and a broadcast partner (color man, e.g., Glenn Ordway) would take over the play-by-play. However, one of the major health issues alluded to in the main Article was diabetes. Most had to have a partial leg amputation late in life. He continued to get around on crutches. (I bumped into him at an award dinner. He had left the dinner on crutches in order to smoke a cigarette in a non-restricted area!) AdderUser (talk) 20:20, 11 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
