I wanted to be Red Barber, Mel Allen or Howard Cosell. I loved their personalities and all of their sounds.

I always wanted to be Gene Hackman and I always wanted to be, you know... I wanted to be one of these guys. I always wanted to be Bob Duvall.

This is Red Barber speaking. Let me say hello to you all.

I would love to have a photographic memory. It would come in handy with the rants I'm given on Scrubs... often on short notice!

On 'Platoon' I was offered in 1984 a very tiny part that Ivan Kane would go on to play. Then the financing fell out, and the film was scuttled for two years.

I'm very proud of 'Platoon,' but at the end of it I was done. I was done.
