If you happen to be a fan of the Charlotte Hornets<\/a>, which most people aren\u2019t, then you know the name Eric Collins. Collins is the play-by-play broadcaster for the franchise.<\/p>\n

The Hornets have not been good for the last several years. However, the team has the most electric person<\/a> calling their games in Collins.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, the popular Hornets broadcaster was in an NFL<\/a> booth. Collins got the chance to call the Carolina Panthers\u2019 emotional come from behind victory against the Miami Dolphins.<\/p>\n

To no surprise to anyone who has heard him on the mic before, Collins was bringing out his best Gus Johnson impression on Sunday.<\/p>\n

On a beautiful touchdown connection from Tua Tagovailoa and Jaylen Waddle, Collins delivered the play-by-play like he has been a Dolphins fan all his life.<\/p>\n

On the Panthers\u2019 game-winning score, Collins delivered another epic call from the booth.<\/p>\n

I have an idea, but I\u2019m not sure how receptive football fans are going to be about it. We have Collins calling all redzone touchdowns. Imagine a new version of RedZone, but a lot more fun.<\/p>\n

Hearing Collins call a game of any kind will bring you chills. Unfortunately, the majority of his calls are for the Hornets. Let\u2019s get this guy on the national scene more often.<\/p>\n
