this has got you fired up?


Not at all. My response was not "fired up" at all:

quote:

Dude, that shot was inconclusive either way, probably more so on a 15 inch monitor. It was called three on the floor, so it is supposed to stay 3. Wesley couldn't wait to start clamoring for 2 free throws, though. It's not like this is the first time, either.


My sarcasm started in response to the "you people" type statement.

quote:

it was a close call. I thought his foot was on the line. so did wesley. if they call it a 2 originally it probably stays that way.


I agree, but Wesley was arguing vehemently that it was a 2.

quote:

I was happy to be wrong and I imagine wesley was too.


I trust that you were. I really don't believe that Wesley was based on his commentary. I think he actually said something smug like "Well, that's another wrong call."

quote:

to me, it just seems a bit much to dislike an announcer because he thought a close call should go against the hornets.


I would agree but it is not A close call. It has been, in my recollection, almost every close call this season. I haven't started a thread about it every time he does it. I'm a "negative person" for mentioning it in this thread, though. It looks like I may need to start dwelling on it here in order to justify my opinion to the ankle biters around here, though.

I thought that was for a missed foul that led to a celtics fast break after anderson or smith got obliterated going for a dunk late in the 4th.

So because he was arguing something that he thought was how it happened, and he doesn't show hornets bias. That makes him a bad announcer?
