So DEPRESSED about the Illini that I'm clutching at straws for humor ...... ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Not happy when my theories about TEAM trumping TALENT get shot down in flames. Not happy after a night filled with Billy P-AAC-ker harping about illegal screens.
Anyway, it has come to my attention that there may be some more qualified "talent" (like, say, 80% of the HoyaTalk Board membership) for a position which is undoubtedly opening up VERY soon.
Stick around for the funnier moments toward the end. As "they say" ........
Andrew Bow-GOT .... Wayne Summers ...... and BOOM goes the DYNAMITE! (Would that be Napolean Dynamite?)
I saw this last week somewhere else and had assumed it had already been presented here, but I'm glad it hasn't, because now I get to relive it again.
" . . . grabs the rebound . . . passes to 'the man,' he shoots it . . . and boom goes the dynamite."
This has to be an all-time classic in the annals of journalism/communications majors tyring to handle a sports report. I feel bad for the kid, but it's painfully clear that the only part of the script he was prepared to deliver was that painfully weak catch-phrase.
I also enjoyed the fact that, in losing, the women's softball team "fared poorly."
The long stretches of silence while the baseball highlights flash by really take the cake, however.

Considering that David Letterman is an alumnus of Ball State University ..... and that this "sports announcer" Brian Collins is still with their campus TV station WCRD

That made me feel sorry for him. Here we go: "they were hoping to continue off of their 3 out of 4 losses" "they started off good but then eventually but the ball state woman's -ba- woman's team was shot down and ended up doing poorly(pause) oh no." "Tomorrows game will be the -muh- meeting between the two beating both -uh- first -sigh- (long pause while highlights play) The Hoosiers are on the 4 on, on the year and they have won six of its last seven games tomorrow will be the game 3 at 3 pm." "It seems last week player on, it seems every week they have a player, im so sorry... " I can't go on... too painful. Basically he can't complete a single sentence without screwing up. Hilarious stuff tho.
