Musburger back behind the desk

A positive residual effect from this year's World Cup is seeing sports broadcaster laureate Brent Musburger behind the desk, anchoring ABC/ESPN's coverage. That's a true professional doing his craft. People will remember him for his play-by-play skills behind the mic, but he's equally effective transitioning between segments and interacting with analysts.

We in the sports broadcasting biz appreciate those that set the pace, so this is a real treat for me.

Give me Brent and Keith Jackson doing a PAC-10 or SEC college football game - or any pigskin for that matter - and that's a Saturday well spent.
