Lv-Bills Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 I mean, with a bunch of crappy announcers out there today, I love ole Dickey. He used to be the voice of CBS basketball when the Lakers played the Celtics every year, and that's where I grew up knowing him. But he seems to keep a great balance. Isn't afraid to get excited, just enough, for both teams. But yet, still stays unbiased. Stockton is a great pro. If only we could get Verne Lundquist on games too. College announcers seem so much better than pro. I kept stats for Stockton and Matt Millen years ago for FOX, and he is also a delight to be around. Just like when he does games. My 2 cents.

I like Stockton a lot better as a football play-by-play guy. On basketball he'd wore out the blah, blah. blah and connect a completely unrelated thought with an 'and'. It drove me crazy. He still does it, but a lot less Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajzepp Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 I like him too, but they should really pull back on the camera a little when he's being broadcast in HD. When the first shot of him in the booth came on tonight, this is what I saw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
