And also during the Louisville-UConn final a couple of years ago. She's clearly pro-UConn, so I'll put up with it. Plus I have two eyes of my own so I really don't need her for play by play.I usually like Doris' comments. Her remark about "lack of class at the top," that she made at the 2014 WCBB Final was a classic.
Doris has fallen down and can't shut up! Sheesh..
As long as she is pro-UCONN she can talk as much as she wants to talk!And also during the Louisville-UConn final a couple of years ago. She's clearly pro-UConn, so I'll put up with it. Plus I have two eyes of my own so I really don't need her for play by play.
chrissaran said:Why are you so against Doris Burke? She's knowledgeable, she talks about the game without all the irrelevant ramblings of some announcers and she stuck up for Geno when Muffet said there was a loss of class at the top.
Doris Burke is the best; she's supposed to talk a lot; that's her job.Simply stated, she talks too much; way too much. Like I said, Doris has fallen down and can't shut up. Sorry, I take no pleasure in this observation, but I know it is shared by many.
I love her and think she's fantastic. To each his/ her own!Simply stated, she talks too much; way too much. Like I said, Doris has fallen down and can't shut up. Sorry, I take no pleasure in this observation, but I know it is shared by many.
Well said. She's superb. We all have different opinions, but she is a top color commentator in my book.Her job, as a color commentator is to explain and analyze the play. She doesn't do play-by-play (which is essentially narrating the video), nor does she step on or interrupt the person who does. I like hearing a woman who played serve as a key spokesperson for the women's game. She speaks the English grammar with conviction and clarity. Obviously, we may disagree among ourselves about matters of taste in media performance of any kind. I have my list of sports broadcasters I find tedious, but Burke just isn't on my list. I think she's good for the game.
You have to be joking. I was just so happy when she went to the NBA. She should be CALLED "Rambler." Viewers still want to know what the call was out on the court while she was fixated on Palmer in street clothes on the bench.Why are you so against Doris Burke?
