He is known for eccentric behavior, like wearing fur caps and robes, and writing Lakers haiku poems to read on-air.
Jacobs also had other sports broadcasting stints, working at KTVV (now KXAN-TV), in Austin, Texas, KMPH-TV in Fresno, California,[1] and radio and television outlets in Phoenix, Arizona.
Jacobs began his broadcasting career at Western Albemarle High School in Crozet, Virginia.
It was starting there that Jacobs' eccentric personality came to light, and was most remembered for throwing a foam brick at the camera, for anything that he disagreed with.
On March 10, 1997, Jacobs was first voice heard on the new XTRA Sports 1150, as a solo host of a midday program.
