If I hear Michell Smith say "with out a doubt" one more time I think I'll just turn off the sound and watch the game in silence. It would probably be better that way any how. These ladies may be able to play the game very well but they need to find a different profession when it comes to commentary.
Without a doubt it was the right call. Couldn't resist. It is amazing how these people cannot comment on what they see the right way. Neither one mentioned anything about obstruction and I had to use the Tivo a couple of times just to make sure I thought I saw obstruction thanks to the tremendous camera work of the ESPN cameramen. And is it just me, or are all of these games CREEEEEEEEEEPPPPINNNGGGG by at an extrememly SLLLOOOOWWWWWW pace? I would say without a doubt, but I think the words have lost their meaning now.
