Horrible Announcers for Akron Game

It was good to see Akron got the two crappiest announcers for the 2011 NCAA tournament. Apparently we beat Iona in the Mac Championship game. Then they talked about how awesome Quincy Diggs was in the MAC Championship game when he didn't play that well. It was the Western Michigan game that he did awesome. I loved when the one guy asked the hispanic guy if ND had a pretty easy road after this game when the Zips were still in it with 5:00 minutes to go. They had no clue of anything about the players or how to pronounce Nitro. They were just reading off cue cards. Maybe next year they can get French to do the game.

Yeah, just shook my head when one of the guys asked the other how deep a run he thought the Irish might make in this years tournament. Turned to the two people I was with at The Tap House and said "Well, I guess this game is over - time to go."

Time to EARN some respect by winning a game or two while Dancing one of these years (see VCU, Gonzaga, George Mason).

The announcing didn't bother me half as bad as the floor camera they would cut to once and a while. That camera sucked. It seemed like if the Zips were pushing the ball down the floor, they cut to that stupid floor camera. Then I got to see a good shot of Quincy's knee. That was my only problem with the game. The HD was awesome though.

The professional effort was embarrassingly poor.
