"The Board of Directors and members of the American Sportscasters Association mourn the loss of its ASA Hall of Fame inductee and friend, Marty Glickman, who passed away on January 3, 2001. He shall always be remembered as one of the best in the sportscasting profession. He was 'Good like Nedick's'"

~ Louis O. Schwartz

"I still remember everything he taught me. He was not only one of the best sportscasters ever but he was the best man at Fran's and my wedding 46 years ago."

~ Chris Schenkel
