Can someone get the announcer a media guide?

[mu_hilltopper]

Seriously?  The game is ruined for you because the announcer shows excitement?

Personally I like it. 

Cosign.  Love the announcer.  Love the way he says Jimmy Butlah.  Or LA-zaaar.

Our PA announcer is a great guy. He also lives and breathes Marquette basketball. Find something better to complain about.

This seems to be the latest non-basketball related thing to complain about after a win haha.

No, I'm not a student. Never went to college. My sister went to MU and was a B-Ball cheerleader in the mid 90's and I have had season tix with my fam ever since. I know I got a little off track but I seriously cant believe that some people come on this board to complain about the pa guy who I honestly think is probably one of the best in college and pro ball. I like when he says "The Rock belongs to Marquett", "Steps", and all the stuff he says. Very different and origional. I hate hearing announcers that say the same sh*t over and over with no enthusiasm at all.

[MUDPT]

Which public transportation do you use that a "chick" announces the stop? I only hear a dude, but that might be only the lines I use.

I go to basketball games to watch basketball games.  I don't need a PA announcer getting all excited with some lame-ass phrases to make it worth my while.

I was gonna say the same thing... of course, I moved out east last August, so maybe the CTA fired the dude and replaced him with a chick.

Its still the same CTA guy... "Doors closing." I believe he's from Kenosha.

That's what I don't get. If you go to watch the game why do you even care about the PA announcer?

[Skatastrophy]

The only reason that I care is because his voice makes my ears ring.  I'm not an old guy and I spend a lot of times in loud bars/clubs.  It's saying something (and it may just be the frequency of his voice and my own particularly physiology) that he's impossible for me to tune out.  He literally makes my ears ring a couple times a game.

That coupled with the fact that he doesn't stop babbling distracts me from the game that I came to watch.

I really don't care what he's talking about or how much he talks, as long as he'd tone it down a notch (not in excitement, just volume so I could tune him out if I chose to).

Meh, it's just a personal preference.  It just sucks that it's easier for me to watch a game on TV at a bar over something so silly.

Because he's annoying.  He detracts from my enjoyment of the game.

Wow, you must be in one of those very few pockets where you can actually, with any semblance of clarity, understand what is actually coming out of the BC sound system.

Right ... because he talks soooo much while plays are going on!!  Seriously?
