Comparing the color guy to the play by play guy probably isn't the best comparison to make.

Yes, these are two very different jobs.

DG was good today. It's an example of why it is important to take situations individually for what they are. 

At times, DG can either talk too much, too negatively, too bluntly, and/or too impulsively, including about topics in which he is not well versed.  Delivery of message matters.  Bill Raftery for example is always positive and encouarging for players who make mistakes, or play poorly, while still pointing out their mistakes.  This is one of many reasons Raft comes across as more likable.  DG doesn't have to be like that, just be yourself, but stick primarily to the game at hand, pointing things out and why in at least a neutral manner, that comes across that you are enjoying what you are doing.

DG did well muchof the time today. 

[We R Final Four]

DG was very good today. Like others, not a recent fan of his work.
My only criticism was on Joe's steal and subsequent poor pass to MH. DG blamed that pass on Joe's "lack of self confidence."
I thought was a bit lazy. Joe made a poor play,and DG was just itching to use his pre game notebook.

GAME NOTES:

Joe C.      Lacking self confidence.

I, like, most of you here, liked DG yesterday on the call. He was funny, honest, insightful, and organic. However I have to say, and I think we should all be able to admit, a lot of that was because of how complimentary he was toward MU. We have to be honest that we enjoy hearing a 2 hour love fest for our team. I'm sure Xavier fans couldn't stand to hear the tongue bath we got. I'm not saying it was undeserved, but it makes me chuckle every time fans claim they want unbiased announcers/media. No, we want to hear them be fans of the team we like.

Nothing like showing "underage" drinking on national TV and the only one wearing a MU uniform.....

Got to love those fake ID's.....

I thought the line about Jesuit schools "serving" students on a Saturday afternoon was actually funny.....

My read......I actually think the kid was a graduate....and hanging out with his"Xavier" jail bait girl friend/previous hook-up.......A lot of that "cross-mingling" in Rome on those semesters.....

PS.....He called Marquette ....The Warriors going into one commercial.......

Reasonable take, to be sure.

Methinks you don't know what jailbait actually means..but otherwise this post was still very odd

This. He was drooling over Marquette.

Not odd.....Just the way it is......

When is that last time you have seen them show a student in the stands at any game drinking.....

When do you see "one" MU student/alumni in the Xavier student section.....If a road trip....There would be more MU gear and people....So some kind of connection.....

And I know of at least 3 marriages out of Rome semesters where Xavier and MU have "co-mingled"

Or do we not share facilities with Xavier on Rome semesters any more????

Somehow even more odd.

So let me get this straight. You think the kid is a graduate from MU hanging out with his "jail bate" (not sure you know what that means but we'll go with it). But you think they're showing an underage kid drinking. So did this kid entered college at 15 years old or...? If he's a grad he's at least 22 years old. The drinking age is 21...

The fact of the matter is if the kid is a junior or senior he's more than likely over 21 years old and legally drinking. And there were something like 47 kids from Marquette High and DSHA that went to Xavier in this freshman class. Xavier is a very popular school for Milwaukee area high school graduates. I have 2 younger brothers that go there and an older sister that went there. Chances are the kid has friends who went to Xavier and he's visiting them for the game.

But maybe he's a 19 year old college graduate who's macking on some Xavier randos...

hes a bartender at Caffs according to Facebook

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Just to add information into this very odd discussion....age of consent in Ohio is 16 (gross). So unless she was 15 or younger, she was not jailbait.

This thread has taken a rather disturbing and bizarre turn.

I wholeheartedly disagree.  Chartouney had the ball and had space but didnt want the ball so he forced it to Markus who had defenders near him and he  had to throw the ball behind Markus to have any hope of markus catching it n not the defenders.  A more confident player attacks as he had a clear path foward, but hot potatoed it.  Hot potatoing it defined as "i want nothing to do with this ball, u take it". Putting the receiver in an inferior position than  the passer had the ball in, in a pure effort/panic to get rid of the ball.  Thought joe c played well but that was a baaad moment.

Im the guy from the student section. Never been on this forum before so i don't know if I'm using it right or not but I was sent this disturbing thread by a friend and made this account to respond.

I'm a 22 year old senior at Marquette and was visiting my sister at XU who's a freshman there. I'm definitely not a grad with some "jail bait".

Also yea I bartend at Caff's. Come visit and talk MUBB with me sometime! Except for you, burger. You can stay away.

Welcome.

And, forget Burger. Just another old guy on Scoop talking like he's a dumbass 18 year old bro.

[rocky_warrior]

Hah, thanks GuyFromXGame -  stick around, it's pretty much like a pub.  We have bouncers too - they just aren't very good at their job.

[BCHoopster]

Right on, how did the x kids treat you? You were awesome!

Game. Set. Match.

[jsglow]

Absolutely stick around Xgame.  Some of the folks here are knuckleheads but most aren't.  Kinda like Caf's.

BTW, I trust you and your sister had a great time and that the X kids were fantastic.  No doubt you took your share of good natured teasing.  To be expected.  Hopefully everyone said helluva game afterwards.

Yeah, that's pretty much what I would expect an underage drinking jail bait chaser to say.
