Gah thanks for reminding me about my #1 non actual basketball complaint... The under the basket camera needs to end ASAP!

Yeah, there was that for sure.  I've not decided what I think about it.

And some weird cuts to the scorer's table etc. during action.  And at times it seemed that the producer wasn't in sync with Todd - it seemed like they wanted him to point out Homer, etc.

But, I count all of that stuff as minor compared to _losing audio_ for _minutes_ on end.  (Or, for the UIC game, losing audio _and_ video!).

Quote from: vu72 on February 05, 2015, 02:49:20 PMI'm thinking back to what the Drake coach said after our win.  "Those guys are men"!!
Men!! but "young men". Since Keith went down we have thrived with the play of 3 freshmen, 3 sophomores, 2 juniors and Vashil. Not only am I confident about our 15-16 chances but my 16-17 expectations have been growing by the game.

About the only thing the Patriots do inflate are the weights!   ;)

I just miss too much of the game. I'm not quite the typist that others of you probably are.

I agree with the comments about missing too much of the game, if I'm chatting at the same time. Also, with the games on ESPN 3, you don't get that little 'pop out' screen, and since the admins can't put the game on the chat window anymore, that hurts being in the chat room too. I should be in there on Sunday though, since I can see the game on Direct TV.

I think we are all very lucky that Todd has a poker face instead of a TV face.

Although I only really ever hear him anymore on the highlights and the coach's show.

Count me in here. I love you guys but it is too much of a distraction for my ADHD mind.  I just want to watch and enjoy!
