As a young boy, Colin Cosell would climb into Papa's lap and listen to that famed voice, the nasal, New York tone booming to sports fans all over the country.
The sound of Howard Cosell still echoes, decades and generations later.
"I pride myself on doing the best imitation of my grandfather in the world," Colin said.

The 38-year-old Cosell made his debut Saturday night as a public address announcer for the New York Mets, starting with their game against the Chicago Cubs. He'll share the duties this season with Marysol Castro, who began earlier this week.
