Wasn’t sure where to post this. Grew up listening to this voice of New England sports, as I’m sure most of you did.

Bob Neumeier, longtime Boston sports reporter and NBC horse racing expert, dies

From 1981-2000, during the heyday of local news, Neumeier was a reporter and anchor at Ch. 4.

[Many of us will remember Bob from his days in Hartford,] where he’d called Whalers hockey games and even suggested the team use “Brass Bonanza” – the team’s theme song that remains popular even now, long after the franchise moved to North Carolina.

Perhaps his best line ((from the brawl): "Smith, Smitty kills him hoo hoo hoo hoh!"

That 45 was the best. The fight against the Minnesota Fighting Saints other side was the Brass Bonanza.

He lived a good life. Great at what he did, was nice to everybody, won at the track. He was a great play-by-play for the Whale. He did an awesome "Score!"

Wish there was a sad button, because he was a great sportscaster! Prayers to his family!!
