- It's not often that Vin Scully screws up; he's one of the greatest broadcasters of all-time. However, during week 6 of the 1981 NFL season, when the Atlanta Falcons played the Los Angeles Rams, he made one of the grave mistakes of broadcasting, leading people to be understandably furious about it

Scully must have been so angry at Stenner, who owed Scully a big apology.
Interesting footnote: In 1983, Scully signed at NBC after CBS chose Pat Summerall over Scully to partner with John Madden.
If CBS had chosen Scully, sports broadcasting history would have been altered.
In the end, things worked out for the best. Scully had iconic calls of some of bsseball's greatest moments. And many feel Summerall & Madden were the greatest broadcasting team in NFL history.
And Scully never called NFL games for NBC. Maybe he had enough of the NFL.
If he had gone to FOX fr when they started doing MLB, he would have become the first PBP announcer to work for all four nets proper (remember he also worked for ABC in the 90s) instead of merely appearance-based--Stockton and a couple others did it via regionalization
The '86 and '88 WS immediately come to mind.
Now I see why Scully left CBS
I saw an interview with a sportscaster who said that you don’t relay information unless it’s proven fact and at this time, Vin knew that but the producer was probably yelling in his ear to give the audience the information, props to Vin for refusing to do so. As a lifelong Dodger fan who has heard Vin all his life, you always got more than a broadcast, you got consummate professionalism and in some cases, a story and we miss him greatly, RIP Vin, may you continue to call Dodger games up in the heavens
If this happened today, Brian Sutterer would have been have been on TH-cam within ten minutes to explain what happened
Broadcast Controversies are the best videos! Keep up the good work
This was not vin scully’s finest moment where he refused to say anything about pat Haden’s injury until he was certain about the information he could get but his producer pleaded him to say it! 😮😮😮😮😮
This isn't the only major controversy that Bob Stenner has been associated with during his time at CBS as 3 years later during the Dallas GP (one of F1's most infamous races due to the very hot temperatures as it took place in July) he would get into a heated argument with legendary NASCAR announcer Ken Squier (who was calling the race for CBS due him being CBS's main auto racing announcer) on a couple of things. First off Stenner told Squier not to report on the absolutely terrible condition of the track (which was breaking up in many sections due to the 100+ degree heat) prior to the start of the race mainly because the organizers of the race did not want any bad press. Squier still told the viewers about the terrible track conditions mainly because he felt obligated to tell the fans what was honestly happening. Then at the end of the race (won by Keke Rosberg), Stenner told Squier not to report on Nigel Mansell collapsing due to heatstroke mainly because he wanted to focus attention on the winner even though there was footage of Mansell collapsing. Again Squier still told viewers about what happened. Squier was so upset with Stenner after the race that he threatened to leave CBS (which would have really hurt their NASCAR coverage) if they continued to pair him with Stenner. What ended up happening was that Stenner was put into a football only role as a producer & never worked an auto race ever again. For those wondering if F1 returned to Dallas after this disastrous race, they did not & instead F1 raced at Detroit when it came to the US for 4 more years before the US GP moved to Phoenix for 1989.
It would've hurt CBS in not just losing a GOAT announcer, but he did so much heavy lifitng of CBS's NASCAR production himself in the 1980's he established a production company that helped CBS co-produce their NASCAR telecasts.
That grave mistake wasn't Scully's. It was Bob Stenner's. There's a reason why Scully wasn't so quick to tell CBS' viewers what Stenner was telling him. I hope Stenner apologized to Scully for this.
This was a bit hyperbolic. Vinny had plenty of contacts within the Rams, I believe he was friendly with the Rams team doctor and many other team personnel as he did plenty of Rams games and was in many of the same social circles in LA..
This is more on Stenner for pushing info to Vin to go on air with false info without true verification.
It also does feel like Stenner, who was Summerrall and Madden’s producer for all those years was prolly one of the old guard guys who was in favor of Pat and John and not Vin and John and maybe sold Vinny out to make him look bad to hurt his chances in the competition or to help validate the decision.
Probably one of the factors that played into why Vin severed ties with CBS.
In my eyes, Scully didn't lie. He just said the report "we" had is that the leg was broken. Who is "we?" The broadcast staff? The booth? The truth is that the report Vin and his partner in the booth had WAS that the leg was broken, which IS the report they got...from Stenner. Stenner is the one who lied.
207 punt return yards is mind blowing!
Broadcasting controversy video idea (and this invokes the Sports Broadcasting Act of 1961): Chiefs/Dolphins game from 2005, which was moved to Friday Night due to Hurricane Wilma approaching. The controversy being which affiliates could show the game. And the Chiefs had to fly out the day of the game.
Can’t wait for the Tom Brookshier video
Scully usedto rat talk Joe Garagiola every NBC Saturday afternoon game of the week. Finally Gags said, "screw it, I don't have to listen to that". What followed was Tom Seaver working with VS and VS was a good boy appreciating all TS said. 50 yr ago
Why were the Falcons ever in a western division? That shouldn't have ever been a thing. How was it allowed?
One team. No surprises as to which one
The NFC West really went coast-to-coast in their last six seasons before the 2002 realignment by having the SF 49ers, the St. Louis Rams, Atlanta Falcons, New Orleans Saints, and Carolina Panthers.
God, the division lineups were shitshows
The Falcons were in the Coastal division with the 49ers, Rams, and Colts in the 67 NFL that became the NFC West three years later when the Saints replaced the Colts
Yeah that...........................
@@brotherpanda3626 The Phoenix/Arizona Cardinals and Dallas were in the NFC EAST. The Buccs were in the NFC CENTRAL. The Saints, Panthers, and Falcons were in the NFC WEST. Apparently maps had not yet been invented when the divisions were created...
College football right now is so much worse, though. Did you know California is on the ATLANTIC coast now? 🙄
“That Guy” Alert:
1. It would be another couple of weeks before CBS would make the official decision to pair John Madden with Pat Summerall.
2. The day when Scully called both a Rams game and Dodgers game at the same time was the year before in 1980.
No different as to when Romo goes overboard every time Mahomes touches the ground
Alex Hawkins was a idiot to say that about Staubach but if I said that about anyone else would he have been canned? After all it was "America's Team!"
They had to break up Summerall/Brookshrier for Madden because Pat and Tom partied too much, Pat's words. Probably saved his life at the time.
Rutledge made BIG fake punt plays for the Giants in 86!
This unofficial Official Jaguar Gator 9 historian will remind everyone you made a video about the controversy surrounding the decision by the CBS affiliate in Richmond, VA to air this game.
Scully was absolutely amazing
In 1990 my wife and I were visiting Montreal to see family. We went out in the night on St. Catherine’s and we saw Vin Scully with Don Drysdale. I saw him in a strip joint, I was shocked then, but who cares now.
ABC wanted Vin Scully to be the voice of Monday Night Football but turned it down cause he didn't wanna leave the Dodgers
I’ve read about that. Scully always preferred to work without an analyst. If Scully had taken the MNF play by play job, imagine a three man booth let alone with Cosell.
To be fair it sounds like Vin was pressured into confirming that statement. And I am not sure I can fault him for delivering the news. If it was me I might've done the same thing.
Vin Scully told the truth: "The report we had was ..."
Exactly. This video is complete garbage.
top 25 collapses..OUCH. That's the amount of the lead the Falcons blew in LI..
Was someone trying to sabotage Scully?
Quite a rug Hank...
Was this the “Hot shot hit right” flub?
Nope
Only person who doesn't like Vin Scully is Giants radio station KNBR I forgot who was doing the afternoon show they poopoo Scully doing NBC GOW & Dodgers/Astros 22 innings on the same game
Oddly enough, he did a bunch of finales in SF
The Catch (CBS)
89 NLCS (NBC MLB)
Candlestick finale (Dodgers/Giants)
and of course his own (Dodgers/Giants again)
There's an alt universe that exists that he did the Cowboys/Niners NFC champ game at Kezar too, probably (and perhaps Falcons/Niners at the Stick)
@@mgb4692 He was also calling the game between the Dodgers and Giants at Candlestick Park on August 29, 1967, part of the 4th inning of which can be heard in the classic Peter Sellers movie "The Party," during the scene where Hrundi V. Bakshi (Sellers) is in the kitchen, looking for the bathroom.
Scully probably felt especially accountable to Los Angeles sports fans and would have felt criticism from other LA sports media, so he was naturally awaiting confirmation. Stenner was such a PoS.
