Want to keep it on the positive side. But I've heard this argument for years, about her voice. And in a performance driven industry, where results are ALWAYS the determining factor, she keeps getting bigger and bigger games. Agree to disagree. Expand That's politics, not performance.

Especially since her performance is not up to par. The fact the previous poster has heard the same criticisms about his friend, annoying voice and not getting players names correct, is indicative of your statement. Sad really.
26CornerBlitz Posted December 17, 2017 Author Posted December 17, 2017 I have no idea what the announcer is saying on the Spanish Language broadcast, but it's 100% better than listening to Mowins and Feely. 2

As a Bills fan, I'm thrilled she's calling this. And if you don't like one of the hardest working announcer in sports, a CNYer who has been calling games nationally for a quarter of a century, well, respectfully suck it. But glad to be here! Expand Your friend has a voice that was meant for silent films. Her "hard work" doesn't make her entertaining or particularly well-informed. Her one "observation" about how McCoy needed to change the way he carries the ball shows me she's never actually watched him run, he has always carried the ball like a loaf of bread. Hard-working doesn't compensate for a lack of talent.

OldTimeAFLGuy Posted December 17, 2017 Posted December 17, 2017 ...OMG...the feeble announce staff got Poyer's name right ....
Rico Posted December 17, 2017 Posted December 17, 2017 Not good. Still better though than Buck or Nantz.

I have watched her do a game since, however, and I have grown to like her. Expand I like her, she is not sexy but calls a good game and way better than Wrecks.

EmotionallyUnstable Posted December 17, 2017 Posted December 17, 2017 If you hate it so much, mute is always an option. Beth and Jay are doing just fine. No team ever really blows us away, so what'd you expect? Some people just want to find a way to B word
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted December 17, 2017 Posted December 17, 2017 ...damn female announcer...forget the pick............

It's because I'm a PAYING customer. I pay good, hard earned money to watch (and listen) to this product. Most people here do as well. The announcer's performance is horrible, inaccurate, and annoying. It's not about a way to use the "B word", it's about wanting to get my money's worth and have a good experience for what I've (and others) have paid for.
