BillsPride12 Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 This one hurts..I really have no words at the moment. An absolute Buffalo legend. He will be so sorely missed but never forgotten! RIP Rick 😭 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freddie's Dead Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 (edited) RIP Rick Jeanneret. The greatest call in any sport that I ever heard. Edited August 18, 2023 by Freddie's Dead 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubba Gump Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 RJ, the only play by play guy that could yell "HE SCOOOOORES" while his voice changed octaves 4 different times. He was truly one of a kind. Rob Ray must be crushed. They spent a ton of time on the road together. Always busting each other's balls. Such a sad day. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Brown Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Wow. Heartbreaking. A true broadcasting legend that made an exciting game even more so. So many legendary calls and I'm glad the Sabres honored him last year. RIP and prayers to his friends and family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan4 Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 (edited) 😢 This one hurts. Wasn’t expecting to read that tonight. What a sad day for Buffalo sports. I didn’t know he was battling multi-organ failure for the last 2 years. Edited August 18, 2023 by BillsFan4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rusty shackleford Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Somewhere around my house I have the Jeanneret best calls CD the Sabres released back in 06 or 07. Used to fall asleep listening to that after a few beverages back in my 20s. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's literally the first person I think of when I think about the '99 Cup run. Game 1 OT "JASON WOOLEY, SHOT HEARD ROUND THE WORLD!!!" I was a very young Buffalo sports fan by then, but that run radicalized my sports Fandom. Not a sad day for me, celebration of the biggest Buffalo sports voice of my childhood!!!
