Announcers
« on: January 03, 2023, 08:07:56 PM »
Does it make me a bad person to say I’d prefer Bill Raftery doing the color commentary for our games rather than Sarah Kustok?  Where were Bardo or Simpkins?

Kustock works in NY and Simpkins (and I think Bardo) in Chicago. They aren’t flying them to NY for a midweek game.

And I thought she was fine.

She was fine. Better than Dickie, but that’s a low bar.

Sarah Kustok’s life story is very interesting.

She definitely passes the eye test.

For an NBA analyst she was more than fine.  Was just surprised to see her calling a college game.

If want credibility never say ‘where was simpkins’ again. 

Announcers were fine other than not well prepared on names

Play by play guy was awful. My daughter was less than impressed by color commentator. Said she talked a lot but didn’t say anything.
That being said, I prefer nails on a chalk board over Dickie.

I specifically included Simpkins to make my point.  But seriously, I when Raftery calls ours games and we usually do very well in those as well.

Kustok never mispronounced Oso's name.
It was Simms. Repeatedly.

You did? That was textbook shaka cliche’s they learned in limited pregame conversations interrupted by mispronunciation and incorrect name calling.
Called Ross, “Jones” twice. Classic 3rd/4th team.

I mean yeah. That’s what they are. What are you expecting on a 5:30 game on a Tuesday in January?

To be fair, the Villanova broadcast kept calling O-Max “Prospect”…even after he corrected himself once.

If we keep winning, we should ge the A team announcers.

It's not too much to ask for the announcers to know the names of the players.

She was adequate. Timms was terrible. Collectively, they were poor.
