I see we get the same two loser tv announcers 2 games in a row.
LOL. Was Manzer too much of a homer for you last game?

Generally I thought these two have been pretty good. But I'm not really paying all that much attention to stuff they say. Atleast not like I would John and Eric, our guys.

I am really surprised ESPN has not found a way to make the radio feed an option -- or the only option -- for these ESPN+ games. Think about it: make some little menu selection in the ESPN app after you automate it pulling the Iowa State or Missouri radio guys. The data steam has to be somewhere.

Then you don't need to employ these third-tier announcers -- ESPN loves saving money. Saving money is making money. Fans would probably be happier just to listen to their own radio feed, and it is not like you are having many people watch this game who are not pretty much in the tank for either Iowa State or Missouri like we are. You'd keep live announcers for marquis games on ESPN or ESPN2 or maybe ESPN-U, but for something that they're already giving throwaway effort to like this, I'm surprised they don't do this.

Learfield would probably charge them more than it takes to hook these guys up remotely to call the games.

Sit down, Norm!

Sit down, Norm!



Oh........wait......


Went to the Puerto Rico tourney that got moved to Myrtle Beach a few yrs ago harassed Frank Haith all game just because he was a ex Missouri coach. Looking back I was sort of obnoxious, but it worked he death stared me and we won the game. Too bad the rest of the season went so poorly.

Unless Frascilla in the crew, I just turn the sound down really low so I can’t hear it unless I try. Wish I could get radio to sync up with TV.

In honor of Jeff Grayer, may Ames traffic delay the arrival of the Tiggers, and let all of the Antlers wind up on double secret probation.
