Sure, Chick is very good, but is he sometimes too much? Let’s go to Chick’s sidekick commentators, past and present, for their comments.

Stu Lantz: “That’s right, Chick!”

Keith Erickson: “That’s right, Chick!”

Pat Riley: “That’s right, Chick!”

Hot Rod Hundley: “That’s right, Chick!”

Al Michaels: “That’s right, Chick!”
