Oh My GOD!

Did anyone see the starting intros for the Syracuse - Georgetown game? Wow. even my kids asked, "Dad, what is he doing?"

The guy was absolutely yelling, and adding noises in, and I quote....

"AND AT GUARD, A JUNIOR FROM ACCOKEEK MARYLAND, #5 MARKEL STAAAAAAARKKKKKSS.....CHAA CHAA CHAA..... BLAAH BLAAH BLAAAAAAH!!!! YAAHHH YAHHHHH!"

Cha Cha Cha, Blah blah blah, YAAAHHHH? What in the hell was that?

Maybe he has a cold and what we heard was a sneeze sound?

I hope they don't bring that announcer to the new Big East!!!!!!

What's strange this they have that guy doing intro's, but an elderly, monotone priest doing the regular PA work.

The gameday experience at the VZW Center is odd. MU does a much better job.

I heard it. I thought it was very lame and embarrassing.

[milkbone]

Don't think that would go over at the Kohl Center!!!!!

Not that I'd want to hear a PA announcer like that, but I miss the old days when a televised game would broadcast player intros. Now, that's been sacrificed in favor of an extra commercial break.

I did hear it and was laughing. I thought McDonough said it was the Team Priest. Not sure if that is true or not.
