Well....as they say
Actually get rid of all the sideline side shows. They serve no real purpose. If you must encroach on the team during the games, I think the way SNY has transitioned Geno's halftime thing is perfect.
Exactlly! I guess there must be something about me liking friendly people.!
I appreciated Maria's reports on what was said in the huddle during timeouts.
I agree...always seemed to breathe at the wrong time, or at least it seemed as though she hesitated while speaking. Monotone, as someone else said. The word timid comes to mind. Seems like a sweet girl..almost too much so for broadcasting. Jistine was made for the job, a natural. Maybe well have a dapper young man next! Hehehe..
She breathes wrong?
Justine is now studio host for Big Ten Network.
Not that many to ask. She was smart enough to know better.
I don't know of any sports reporters covering any WBB team who ask prosecutorial-type questions to players or coaches. Certainly they have to think about their future relationship with coaches, players, and schools if they did that.
I thought that All Sports Journalists and Personalities had a Professional Obligation to be fair and impartial when reporting on or covering an Athletic Event or conducting an interview, no matter what the team is or who the Sports Individual is? Isn't that what is taught in Journalism Classes in College?
Do you think Kara Wolters and Meg Culmo are scared of Geno?
For me, definitely not scared, at all. Setting aside justified, or not, more aligned with reverent, deferential, devoted, enamored. For me, for tactical analysis, especially post game, their commentary is not at all unbiased. Everyone makes mistakes, yet I cannot remember them elucidating on such, while offering tactical alternatives that might have been more effective. That is a large part of an analysts job.
Nan - to be frankly honest with you (and this is just my opinion, of course), but YES, I do. I have yet to see anyone from SNY going out and either asking a tough but honest question to Geno or if they did (like in the rare handful of cases that Maria Marino asked a subtle but to the point question to Geno, he would always either give a "Flipid Response" or would just blow her off, take off his headphones and walk away. Thus the reason why no one else from SNY would want to attempt to make any statements on the air regarding something that they felt that either Geno and/or a member of his Coaching Staff, that might have been considered by the SNY Talent, as being "Game Questionable". [I have seen Meg be DIRECT and HONEST about UCONN Players, which is, in my opinion, refreshing, but never Geno directly. And I have not seen Kara speak out "On Air" concerning something Geno or the Coaching Staff that could be seen as questionable. Again, just my personal opinon.
Lol, and what exactly do you based that on, I mean other than your imagination?
Whenever Holly Rowe is on I have to mute her, she drives me up the wall more than any other sideline reporter out there, be it basketball, football, soccor, even if she announced whiffle ball I would still mute her.
