Lesley Visser

That I've lasted is one of my greatest accomplishments. Maybe my greatest.

What kept me going through all the years? More than anything, the love of and respect for competition. That's what it comes down to for me. That's why I do this.

My schedule has slowed a little. I've cut back on some of my assignments. But I still have the enthusiasm for the sports world that I had 38 years ago.

All the cameras shifted from the players to me.

Guys do not have a genetic blueprint that allows them to understand or love sports.

I'm proud of my status as a pioneer in this business.
