Th origional was Ben Dreith
Is known among football fans for his unique explanation of a personal foul penalty during a 1986 game between the Buffalo Bills and the New York Jets. After the Jets' Marty Lyons (misidentified as Mark Gastineau during Dreith's call) tackled Bills quarterback Jim Kelly to the ground and started to repeatedly punch him in the head, Dreith announced to the crowd:

We have a personal foul, on number 99 of the defense, after he tackled the quarterback, he's giving him the business down there, that's a 15-yard penalty."

I always loved that guy. He was great.

the original one is hilarious, the new one is hilarious because the ref pulled some old school outta the bag all nonchalantly...

I really enjoy the new commercial where the ref says he's going to penalize the other team in the second half to make-up for a bad call...
