Boat Goes to Italy

[August_West]

Foreign announcers are so superior to American ones its absurd. Have you heard the Germans or South Americans do NFL? It's awesome. English or Latin soccer announcers? Amazing.

How do you say "The ball looks deflated" in German or Portugese?

Pretty funny that boats mom and the team account go back an forth on twitter.

I don't know how our guys get selected, but it's frankly the result is woeful. Joe Buck? Twit. Troy Aikman? Door knob. Phil Simms? Probably has CTE. Mike Patrick? Worst. etc, etc, etc.

We have to cringe through broadcasts, while foreigners get to soar with the eagles. It's a national travesty.

The only announcers that come close in the US are hockey announcers. Hockey play by play when done right is just incredible. Listening to Doc Emrick lose his during a hockey game is pure joy.

I wish they were still on the Lira
I hope their paying him in Euro's the Dollar doesn't go far in Italy.
Maybe in Sicily it's better but Rome north the COL is worse than CT.

A buddy of mine who played in Italy said he was given housing and a car in addition to his salary. Said that's how they do things in Europe for the most part.

Just go around saying this: Ich bin ein arschloch. Perfect translation.

For those who need a little "feel good" stuff today like I do. Ryan had 28 points today including the last 5 of the game to get his team the win. BTW he was up against Peyton Siva.

Nice little video of final run-out. Turn on the sound, the announcer almost blows a vein.
Box score

I'm bumping this for those that missed it when all the negative posts piled up on Sunday. It's the Ryan Boatright show in Italy, the fans and announcers love the guy.

Keep us posted. Appreciate it

I'd be shocked if Boat doesn't get another shot at the NBA. He has a heart and that will take him a long way.

$100 says Boatright either pays taxes to the Mafia or they pay part of his salary.
