Sadly I feel like this is going to become more common since they've seen they can save money doing it


Yep and it worries me, because the broadcasts are awful, and it's not the fault of the commentators. They are literally reacting to seeing what we see on TV, and if you have a situation where the camera angles and operators are god awful like at Oregon, then you're fricked.

You do realize that LSU has a sponsorship that says every strikeout is brought to you by tobasco right? He literally has to say that.

Get the commentators back in the stadium please


This needs to happen. Just stupid for them to call from home.

And the “Tabasco Strikeouts” and other shite like that makes it pretty hard to listen to.
You probably hated the "Boudreaux's Butt Paste Balk" call and the "Preparation H Home Run" calls. Lyn Rollins apparently loves the Preparation H Home Run. That's why he says "Pucker up and kiss that baby goodbye!

I’m not a fan of the way he calls baseball games. And the “Tabasco Strikeouts”


Since Tabasco is a sponsor, they pay for him to say that. It’s not like he just randomly decided to use that.

I much prefer Kyle Peterson. But I wasn't expecting to get him.

So stupid some have to still call games from home


I don’t think this is going away. The big games will still have the broadcast teams on site but I am willing to bet the smaller games will continue to have it done through streaming. It will be a way for the networks to save money on travel and equipment. I imaging the upkeep on the home studios is relatively inexpensive.

Does LSU have a sponsorship from the word "flare"? Because he says that too much too. Never a bloop or anything. Always a damn flare from Blair.

Tom Hart talks way too much - mainly about meaningless bs.


fricking this. I'm glad I'm not the only one who notices. He will talk about anything but the game if he gets bored and he tries to be Mr. Edgy pop-culture guy. But ESPN and SECN keep trotting him out there, so we must be the ones who are wrong
