Yet posters on tbis board frequently complain about announcers, even though I haven't heard of any posters being professional announcers.
You have no idea how much work goes into being a television color commentator for a major sporting event. First, they must study the six words you cannot say on television. Second, they spend upwards of an hour getting their hair sprayed. (There should be a medical study investigating the link between hair spray and forgetting basketball rules.) Thurd, they get pounded with pancake makeup.
You have no idea.
Walk a mile in their patent leather shoes before you complain.

On a lighter note, I enjoy listening to CBS' basketball game announcers Verne and Bill.
