Did he? I never heard that but then I did turn it off after the captains' speech.

Get your own lines Mason! I wonder if he will use Joey's famous line too? all day, all day! Or maybe that's too far back for him to remember. :lol:

Yes he did say YES SIR! We all went off calling him a thief for stealing Gowies trademark line. :x

Sorry to rain on your parade guys, but "Yes sir" isn't Gowies line either.

I first heard the cliche saying in the early 1980's during the US Open Golf when US commentator Bob 'Rossy' Rosberg called a downhill slider by Jack Nicklaus. As the ball got closer to the hole, Rossy was heard to boldy state the words " Maybe....maybe....YES SIR!" as the ball drapped into the front of the hole.

Gowie being a big golf fan probably plagerised the saying from Rossy.
