Talking

One of the announcers on Sportscenter this morning used "principle of verticality" during the highlights. I was a little impressed, especially if an announcer actually understands it.

I heard that, too. Hard to tell if he knew what he was talking about. Crowd wanted the foul, but didn't get it in the last 2 seconds of the game.
