Behind The Scenes With Eli Gold…The Game, Saban, And Stabler
Eli Gold once knew nothing about college football. Eli hated Kenny Stabler the pro ball player,but grew to love him as a colleague. Gold once approached Nick Saban pre-game with a non football matter that made the coach smile.
Eli was a New York kid that only knew baseball & hockey.No knowledge of Nascar back in the day. Young Eli did not know anything about a coach named Bear Bryant.
Eli says Kenny Stabler was a total opposite in the broadcast booth,but made for a great teammate.
Eli delivered an Eagles box set,a gift from the band,to Nick Saban hours before a Bama game. Nick Saban's game face became all smiles.
Eli shared these stories and more in a recent interview at www.bammerhammer.com. A great read for Bama fans.
