Jim Henderson, whose impassioned and eloquent play-by-play as the voice of the New Orleans Saints helped cement the team’s highs and lows in the memories of fans for three decades, is retiring from the broadcast booth. Henderson made the announcement Thursday afternoon (Feb. 1) on WWL radio, where he has worked since 1986. Known for his eloquence and way with words, Henderson, who grew up in Ontario, New York, first served as the sports director at WWL-TV, succeeding “Hap” Glaudi. He got his first taste of calling Saints games when he moved into the booth to serve as an analyst for preseason games during the 1982 season.
