Agree completely. Being able to understand what's happening is pretty crucial and you don't always get that with Jim.

I also enjoy actually being able to follow what the frick is going on in the game regardless of the dudes voice.

PW is the man, he paints pictures with words!! I wish PW would get the full time gig. He is deserving! He has put in his time with LSU and it's his turn!

I think he's ok. It's a pretty tough thing to do...

It's not what Wright says. It's just his voice. Plenty of people can do what he does. But you gotta have a voice that doesn't make you want to choke a baby. His sounds like Jimmy Stewart after a hard day of work. It's horrible.

Still better than Hawthorne. I've missed runners scoring because Hawthorne was talking about 3rd sackers.

I don't get what y'all don't like about PWs voice. I think he's called a helluva game too.

He knows his stuff. Worked with in in student media way back when. Always liked him as a PBP guy. Reminds me of Sean McDonough.

"Ts time for him to hang it up."

Set the example-quit posting.

You wish, but Jim will be here another 10 years.

If you don't know, the man is a legend at LSU.
