April 25, 1995
On April 25, 1995, Howard Cosell, who delighted and infuriated listeners during a 30-year career as the nation's best-known and most outspoken sports broadcaster, died today at the Hospital for Joint Diseases in Manhatten. He was 77.
Cosell, starting in radio during the 1950's, saw his fame and peak during the 14 years on "Monday Night Football." He was voted simultaneously to be most popular and the most disliked sportscaster in America.
