ESPN CWS broadcast, is there anyone worse than Hershiser

Great. Way to start an original topic.

and 128 million field !!!

ESPN does this once a year, and you can tell the research is incomplete. LSU did not averge 400 more than the new Box holds. Also, they did not mention ONCE that T J Forrest used to play for LSU last night. The other night when Chad Jones pitched, there was no football video to be seen.

As far as the announcers, I like them. And we can't complain about the love they've given us.

Yeah they did.

I thought he did a pretty damned good job of explaining why the pitchers are over-pitching. I thought it was pretty interesting how he was talking about adjusting your release point and how arching your back can mess up the line of the pitch.

The only thing that annoyed me about both of them was the fact that they kept changing the players names. They never pronounced them the same.

Somebody on here will complain about the announcers, no matter who those announcers might be.

And that pic of Nolan Ryan pounding on Ventura is classic. I remember that like it was yesterday. That's why no one charged the mound when Ryan was out there.

You have obviously never heard any of the Ole Miss broadcasters we have around here. Very biased and nothing Ole Miss does is ever wrong. I actually like Hershieser and Patrick. Mike Patrick really does know the game and Hershieser has done nothing but talk up LSU to this point, even up to saying that of all the teams they have seen play this week, LSU seems to be the only one that has all the tools and everything in place to be on top at the end. He could have eaten a bowl of Alphabits and then crapped what he was going to say the rest of the night after that and it still would have been a good broadcast to me.

i think orel has done a nice job. they mess up names, but its their first time seeing these 8 teams play

One time they came back from commercial and said that Arkansas was in charge of the game 7-1.

But the truth be told, they were in LSU's corner all night. They even said that LSU looked to them to be the best team left standing and that they expect us to win it all.

All I could think about was that every high school baseball player in America with the dream of playing college ball was watching that game. Between the game itself and ESPN talking up our fans, our stadium, our attendence, our coach, etc. it was a wonderful night for LSU and it may pay dividends in the future for all those kids watching.
