The Mid-Atlantic Emmy Awards, handed out this year at the Philadelphia Marriott Downtown, recognize excellence in regional television news, programming, and individual achievement. The 2005-06 season marks Zumoff's 12th year as 76ers play-by-play announcer and 23rd overall as part of the 76ers broadcast team. Zumoff can be seen calling Sixers action on Comcast SportsNet 65 times this season and 10 times on UPN. "I'm just thankful that as a kid who was born and raised in Philly, that not only do I have the opportunity to do NBA basketball, which is a great thing, but also to be able to do it for the team that I grew up rooting for," Zumoff said. "I'm just a very, very fortunate individual, and to get an accolade on top of this, makes it that much more special." </div> link:http://www.hoopsworld.com/article_14244.shtml this article was posted a while ago, but i dont know if anyone knew this. congrats marc! if you are in the philly area, and you watch sixer games, you will know who he is.
