Beth Mowins.....ugh. I cannot listen to her. Just horrid. Clueless 90% of the time.
I remember last year (maybe year before) after the tournaments, switch over to NCAA Softball to watch the UConn of Softball (Oklahoma.)
Imagine my dismay when one of the announcers was, yup, Beth Mowin. I literally almost hurled in my chair.....
ANyone worse then her? Maybe Deb Anotneli or that one announcer on ESPN that GUSHES BUCKETS whenever she talks about South Carolina. Forget her name.
I don't mind Mowins herself, it is the nonsense she gets into with her color commentator that can be annoying. As I watched all the games this weekend (or parts of all them), yes, there were clearly some awful blah-blah. At times, several announcers were better, including Mike Thibault, although I didn't watch a ton of the 3 games in Gonzaga. But what I saw, he was as usual, good, and paired with Ann Schatz I think,, who is a good play by play as far as it goes, but ok.
However - on softball - Mowins is far and away the best. She is, there are other good ones, but she played softball (may have played basketball for all I know) and is very smooth.
