The man who greeted viewers with “Hello Dallas-Fort Worth… let's talk sports" has died.

Max Morgan started every one of his KDFW sportscasts with that saying, along with a smile and a magnificent baritone voice.

For nearly 21 years Morgan was there to cover it all for Channel 4 – two Cowboys Super Bowl wins, a Stars Stanley Cup, a Mavericks title and two trips to the World Series by the Rangers.

Morgan had been off the air recently and was admitted last week to a Dallas-area hospital suffering from congestive heart failure.

Oh no

I saw the name on Facebook and wondered if it was him. Thoughts to the family.

This sucks. Seemed like a good man and obviously way too young. RIP

[Marty]

Wow. Rest in Peace Max.

[foutsrouts]

Good man. God Bless.

[LongJim]

Loved his voice. Didn't know he was ill. RIP.

[JRock]

So sad. Congestive heart failure. Prayers.

I think you all remember that Richard Durrett, who passed away earlier this summer, was my best friend. I gave his eulogy that day and met so many of his peers who just loved him. Max Morgan was one of them. He and Richard were good pals--in some weird way, it gives me great peace to think that Richard and Max are yukking it up together in Heaven looking down on all of us...its been a tough year for the local sports scene, for sure. RIP, boys...

“Hello Dallas-Fort Worth… let's talk sports" was the best intro I ever heard to a sportscast.

R.I.P. Max Morgan.
