Time after time last night he made asinine, uninformed or just plain dumb remarks. Just gave me a headache after a while.
i think you mentioned it in the game thread about how, down 3, he said tmg really could've have cut to the basket on tiny's pass, but did the right thing by flaring out to the 3-point line.
possibly the dumbest suggestion an announcer has ever made.
The three free throw comment on the 75 foot pass was what got me. I think he needs a 10 second delay so they can cover all the dumb stuff he says.
Or the comment "I bet Jeff Capel wishes he had that timeout he called at the 3:57 mark back now" when we were down 3 with 3+ seconds left. Hey brain surgeon...Capel doesnt call that timeout, he doesnt get Willie in the game at that point, which would mean that 2 Willie scored after that timeout would have never happened...therefore we would have been down 5 instead of 3.
I thought both announcers were terrible. I was frustrated with some (alot) of the calls, but to put up with those shumb dits made it unbearable. Hopefully, we won't get them again.
Yeah, I keep thinking of dumb things they said. When Crocker picked up his 5th foul Doug Bell actually announced it was Tiny who had fouled and was out of the game even though he only had 3 fouls at the time. I was thinking "WTF?" (I had no idea Crocker was even in the play). They immediately went to commercial break and we were left scratching our heads wondering what the hell was going on.
