calling our game tonight.

 

[The Maroon Pug]

So far has done a good job.

 

[sandwolf.sixpack]

I've heard him call baseball games for us before and he has done a good job.

 

[RocketDawg]

Who's the woman announcer?

 

[Shmuley]

Can't help but smile every time Dick says "beavers."

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

Guess I'm sexiest but I hate women calling men's sports.

 

[RocketDawg]

Been watching Dak mostly, but when I flip over he seems to be unbiased. Has a good announcer voice too. Can't complain.

I lol'd

 

[Sancho Panza]

He's been professional, so far.

No snide remarks, or backhanded complements when showing OUR Egg Bowl Trophy.

Have 3 TVs on, so both games, plus the ArKansas game.

 

[patdog]

He's always done an outstanding job when I've heard him call our games. I could have never faked as much enthusiasm about UM players parading the Egg around like did ours.

 

[civildawg88]

I've always been impressed with Richard on radio and tv

 

[showmedawg]

Matt is rubbing off on him. Not in the carnal way

 

[gymdawg.sixpack]

Yes....yes u are sexiest.....lol

Seriously i cant stand hearing a woman call a men's gm

ditto! its like i don't believe a damn word they are saying.

 

[patdog]

You're sexist. First time I heard a woman announce a football game, it was pretty weird at first. After about a quarter, it was no big deal though. I thought the one last night did a good job.

Kara Lawson is as good at calling games as anyone out there.

 

[1msucub]

Kara Lawson is as good at calling games as anyone out there.

Beat me to it.

 

[MadDawg.sixpack]

Kara Lawson is as good at calling games as anyone out there.

Meh, I thought she was pretty lame. I don't think Dick cared much for it either because he rarely took her comments and expanded or had a back and forth with her. Of course I don't know how much you can add to incredible bits of wisdom like you have practice to be able to shoot well and playing good defense will lead to playing better offense. Whew.

 

[Faustdog]

That wasn't Kara Lawson last night.

But as mentioned, that wasnt Lawson. It was Brooke Weisbrod.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brooke_Weisbrod

3 sport college athlete, graduated Magna *** Laude, and has worked in front of the camera for years. A friggin wealth of knowledge.
I liked her. And Lawson. And Doris Burke. They are good at their jobs.

Way better than Bill Walton rambling on about **** that only people currently on shrooms can understand and totally ignoring the game.
Way better than Dickie V name dropping for 2 hours and giving out proverbial reach arounds to any player under 20 years old.
Way better than Jimmy Dykes back in the day with his terrible 'His strength is his strength all-strength team' segment or that awful 'back of the plane' tournament selection shtick he did for every broadcast during the last 3 weeks of the season.

Commentators who understand the game and dont ramble about random **** just because they have a mic and the power to hold people hostage to listen to them? Yeah Ill take commentators like that every day.

The only female announcer that ever bothered me was Pam Ward. Thank god she isn't on the air anymore
