I like the local flavor,
the local broadcasters,
a lot of school only broadcasts, of which there are
fewer and fewer, go all “professional” knowing there are
more viewers tuning into their streams.
I like the local homer broadcasters better.

It's not that hard to plan for...
ESPNU shot themselves in the foot, again, with scheduling games too close together today. Maryland at Rutgers at noon will almost certainly bleed into Hop at Penn State at 2pm. This usually means we have to scramble to find the channel they are switching the noon game to, and hope our cable service carries the channel, OR, we have to wait for the noon game to finish and miss the beginning of the 2nd game. One half-hour more is all it would take (provided the game doesn't go into OT) to create the necessary spacing needed between games. If I was Sports Czar, I would make sure this never happened again.

Things I like about Jay Alter: I don't know where he's from, I don't what foods he likes, I don't know if his brother cooks or even if he has a brother, I don't know about his heritage, I don't know about his calves, I don't if he skis, I don't know if he's on Instagram, I don't know about his uncle's living room furniture, and he's a fantastic announcer.

improvements/eliminated or at least downgraded some:
- "right down _____ street"
- stud, beast, monster
- acc athlete
- color guy was "all-american in 1980s/1990s"
- explaining shot oob rule
also still the same:
- hype for several guys and silence on mistakes/getting ripped/poor play until game is almost over
- the greatest ____ in college lacrosse

Re: Lacrosse on TV
Tonight’s good coverage of the PSU/Michigan had two pros covering it live.
How much longer does ESPN/ACCN have the bro’s covering from their basement who can’t see what we can’t see?

Re: Lacrosse on TV
I understand not having them cover it from where the game is played; but at least have them do it in Bristol or Charlotte or from an ESPN studio. Anish looked like he was calling the game from a freaking broom closet yesterday. It was ridiculousGorilla Fan wrote: ↑Fri Apr 16, 2021 10:26 pm Tonight’s good coverage of the PSU/Michigan had two pros covering it live.

Re: Lacrosse on TV
Reviving this old post because I'm (bored of baseball) watching a UVA Marist game from 2019 ... a UVA announcer (color guy I think), noted early on that the UVA atk "got a touch" to settle in the offense.
Later, after a slash, and where the ACC-ESPN feed showed the penalized dpole kneeling in the box, commented that man down team (Marist) had gone to a zone (yea, no turd) and that Marist apparently believed that was "the best way to prevent uncontested shots" (or something to that effect). Basically he had no clue it was man up/down.
I like Boyle and the rest of the NBC team (other than "power play"), the LSN guys, coach Zim and some others that I recognize (Beninatti (sp) was great, last year's MLL playoffs comes to mind), but the Carc, Quint and Aneesh crew are okay despite what the Hopkins posters and supporters around here think and parrot from time to time.

Re: Lacrosse on TV
I just converted my VHS taped games to dvd's. I really miss the Bmore ABC2 Game of the Week productions.
The camera work is still unrivaled & Scott Garceau, young Q & Kieth Mills were a great crew.
On webcasts, Navy's home game PLN & now ESPN+ websteams, with Pete Medhurst &/or Joe Miller, are superior to any of the networks.

A fraudulent intent, however carefully concealed at the outset, will generally, in the end, betray itself.

Re: Lacrosse on TV
I've pondered that, but I'm not tech savvy enough to do it myself. I use a dvr w/hdd, rather than a computer, to edit & record to dvd.. I'd gladly make my dvd library & unconverted VHS tapes available to someone willing to take on the project to share Navy lax games & maybe even a larger number of FB games, with the global Navy fanbase. I thought it might be a potential fundraiser for FONL, derived from youtube ad clicks. There may be copyright issues. I don't know if tv ads would have to be edited out.youthathletics wrote: ↑Sat Jul 24, 2021 9:39 pmYou should create a YouTube channel and upload the games.old salt wrote: ↑Sat Jul 24, 2021 8:44 pm I just converted my VHS taped games to dvd's.
