Chris Berman
They look alike and in a scary way they sound alike!
-- Mark Schneider, San Francisco |

He does such a great imitation.

Kevin Spacey
I think he would have been amazing in the role of Howard Cosell. Everyone knows what a great impressionist he is and it would have been great to see him verbally sparring with Ali.
-- Lee Nicholas, Simsbury, Conn. |

Christopher Walken
Walken's unique speaking style and his attempt at Cosell's noted speaking style would be more than entertaining.
-- C. Lo, Minneapolis, Minn. |
