I had to listen to a portion of the game yesterday, and Zack Strief is horrid. You go from the ball is snapped to a total yardage, 1st down, short of 1st down or Touchdown with no fluff in between. The most boring play-by-play commentator ever. Listening to the Rams/Chiefs game now on WWL, and what a difference.

they haVE it on Westwood One where I live.

Kevin Harlan and Kurt Warner.

but its not fair to try compare our radio team to that

I had to listen to WWL during the Redskins game this year and it was okay. Wish Jim Henderson would have been able to call the record breaker by Brees. Oh well.

Strief has a long ways to go and may not ever be successful.

Kevin Harlan (who was calling the Rams game on WWL via Westwood One) is by far, BY FAR, the best radio play by play guy in all of sports. He may be the best play by by play guy in all of sports, on either radio or TV.

The descriptions Harlan gives of the action are so insanely, amazingly vivid.

Kind of a slightly unfair comparison =)

If you read Zach Strief's blogs in Deke's voice it's hard to conclude that anyone but Deke wrote them.

Maybe he's still on staff as an assistant or intern over there.

Try it. You'll see what I mean.

Either Strief naturally has the same exact speech patterns (complete with the same vocabulary and grammatical errors) as Deke, or Deke is ghost-writing his blogs for WWL.
