Onions!

A treat for #UConn fans tomorrow watching Louisville game on TV - Bill Raftery will be doing the game

 

[Final4 42]

I swear you were going to say Mike Stuart as a ref.

Love me some Raf though.

 

[Strummer]

I'm with Final4 42 in my negative anticipation - I thought for sure that you were going to say that Dookie Vitale was going to be calling the game. I'd rather have PeeWee Herman broadcast the game than Dick.

 

[tykurez]

At this juncture - I'd rather have Mike Patrick. Guy has been golden for us.

Raf must be miserable stuck on FS1 calling PC and Seton Hall games. I'm sure the money they threw at him makes it a little easier though

 

[CTBasketball]

The game is on CBS too.

 

[UConn990411]

I was incredibly discouraged before the season about UConn being stuck in the AAC, but having to listen to Mike Patrick stumble through games was worse than anything I could have imagined.

Listening to Raf tomorrow is going to be the freshest breath of air I've ever experienced.

 

[August_West]

And uconn opens with.......... MantaMan

 

[GlastonTim]

Does anyone here know how to watch the game live on cbs on their iphone?

 

[NotADimeBack]

Raftery is the best

 

[Jluc]

ONIONS

 

[minidarren]

Ive grown fond of Patrick. Dude loves UCONN.

 

[Payday]

Cincy fans have suddenly become huge UConn fans! At least thru tomorrow...

;-)

name 1 announcer that doesn't get muted; that former seton hall coach has not improved on his clichés since he began broadcasting

I am really thrilled to have Raf behind the mic; and I actually see it as a shot in the arm for our guys. My rationale is that Raf is "the" old school Northeast hoops guy with strong ties to the pre-Louisville Big East and even stronger ties to JC(and, by extension, with KO). I'm going to look forward to ALL of the "Raf stories" archive;and I'm very interested(I hope he will jump off in that direction) in his perspectives on the AAC,the "new" Big East and, perhaps, the future direction of our hoops program. Welcome home Raf!!! And the Huskies "goooooooo.............MAN U MAN!!!

GO HUSKIES!!!
BEAT THE CARDINALS!!!

 

[Dougsts]

Another game with the sound off for me, I find Raf as grating as Vitale. Can't listen to either of em.

Yeah, try this. Says the UConn-Louisville game will be on here for free.

My fellow UConn fans can't find enough to bitch about. When we're winning, people have to complain about who the announcers are

Welcome to the Boneyard.

 

[Mike Honcho]

Welcome to the Boneyard.

I partly agree, but then again, announcers are a fairly integral part of the TV watching experience.

I didn't say they weren't. I was just pointing out that folks on the Boneyard complain about everything. Its just how it works. And, anyone who complains about having Raff doing our games is nuts. He's awesome.

Amen to that.

Raff is my favorite. One of the only guys who is knowledgeble without being arrogant. Like watching a game with a friend.
