Man this ESPN TV production is terrible and the announcers are less than pedestrian

[NEforceUConn]

Yes I'm frustrated, but these announcers suck. The lack of any replays and insightful comments are troubling.

UConn is not playing well, and throwing the ball away or going 1 on 4. wtf? Just give me 10 minutes of real UConn basketball, please.

If I hear one more time that that announcer went to Army I'm going to move to Canada.

Not a fan of the “Field of Dreams” quote fest?

To be fair, the first one was fine, but, after that, move on.

Shambi doesn’t tell you what’s going on. I don’t even know the color guys name, but he’s annoying. At some point I’m surprised this is the best Espn can do, like there aren’t any other people they could hire.

 

[Mr. French]

Spatola, he’s annoying as heck.

And he isn’t making many great points.

 

[Travelman6]

I do not care about a single thing they are saying ...doesn't that one guy do baseball games? Most boring voice ever.

 

[Letsgohuskies11]

Espn is a dumpster fire

Unrelated, but semi-entertaining

I think Spatola was only on the broadcast because of the nature of the event itself. He shouldn’t be calling any more of our games.

Does that ease your pain?

 

[Horatio]

They were bad

Sciambi is a great baseball guy and is pretty responsible for the shift of moving baseball announcers out of the mid-20th century. I don’t mind him in other sports but he’s not the same as when he calls baseball.

More like a local tv weatherman trying to call a major mens college bb game. Decent announcer voice but his talent is limited to a voice over Charman TP commercial

Disagree but to each their own.

I always got the impression that Sciambi seems bored when he calls basketball games. He is a very good baseball play by play guy though.

I just don’t think he’s nearly as knowledgeable. He came up as a baseball guy and when ESPN hired him, he got thrown in to everything.
