Nantz Me, Baby, Nantz Me

Clearly Nantz has become too self-aware, and it’s hurting the game !!!

 

Hearing Nantz actually say that in my mind cracks me up.

 

On a separate note, the 2019 Raftery and any time Grant Hill are fucking terrible. Raftery is a cliche machine, and I don't know what the hell Grant Hill is.

I counted those two saying 'tough shot' after a TT shot four times and I didn't even start counting til halfway through the game.

Nantz must be having flashbacks to carrying Phil Simms on his back for all those years.

 

Raftery and "Send It In Jerome" should have been a drinking game

 

The other night when Virginia was ahead of Auburn by a whopping 6 points with like 7 minutes left, Hill said Virginia had the game in control as they went to commercial break. He's a terrible announcer.

Raftery, like Chris Berman, has just overstayed his welcome. I don't need to hear the same damn schtick for 30-odd years. It's tiresome.

 

I'm sure "man to man" was really cute and unique 30 years ago or whenever he blurted it out, but it's his personal "back, back, back" at this point. He also says it so quickly you don't know what he's saying.

 

With all of the shots made last night late, not one "ONIONS".

I haz a sad.

 

Why did Raftery keep shouting "DAGGER" every time someone made a basket?

 

HOOS YOUR DADDY!

 

Grant Hill is a likeable, non-threatening fellow. I respect him but he adds nothing.

Raftery? Used to be fun at the Carrier Dome in '84, now? Not so much.

Wouldn't Charles be a fun color guy? He'd be like Madden in his heyday, right?

I really like McHale, he has sharp no nonsense comments. Couldn't they find someone like him?

I know I'm in the very small minority but I'd love Walton!

 

"Virginia wins the national title ...

"This is the biggest day in Charlottesville since Sept. 14, 1982, when the Grateful Dead played a concert on campus. Jerry and the boys opened with Jack Straw and blazed through some classics like C.C. Rider and El Paso."

"Bill, what do you think about the performance by ..."

"The second set opener was China Cat Sunflower which flowed into I Know You Rider. Iko Iko jammed into a crispy version of Truckin'. They closed the concert with an incendiary Johnny B. Goode."
