Anyone else pick up on the tension between ESPN's PBP guy Roxy Bernstein and his color analyst (didn't catch his name)? At one point Bernstein asked him a question and got a response of "huh?". To which Roxy responded "want me to say it again louder?"
I thought it was kind of funny. You usually don't hear broadcast partners call each other out on the air like that. Roxy apparently felt his color guy wasn't pulling his weight.

Roxy plays the straight man to a couple good play by play guys in Wes Clements and Bill Walton. That's my take as well. I like Bernstein just fine. Clements just isn't real polished. I liked it in Game 2 when Bernstein mentions Kwan's quad (say that five times fast) about 4 times in 30 seconds and then Clements says "yeah and with Kwan fighting that hamstring... Otherwise, felt like they threw a lot of praise our way and did a decent job when they had to come up with some filler - and they had a lot of time to fill when the games were out of hand. |

I thought they were ok besides the guy opposite Roxy calling us the ducks early in the first broadcast. I still have a hard time figuring out how these broadcasters can mix us up. I'm not in the business and i honestly never get rivals mixed up, like the sooners and the cowboys for example. Later he referred to the Beavs going "up" to Stanford and I realized he just might not be all that bright.

For a while it seemed like they were a player behind. Madrigal scores from 3rd and they kept saying Kwan... Maybe they got confused because there were so many Beavers on the base last night. |

the color guy in one of the broadcast went out of his way to name a bunch of teams as College Baseball Dynasties as a way of saying these Beavs are a one-off. I didn't like that.

IMO there wasn't much they could say about the other teams except they had the moxie to get into the box against the Beavers, and there are only so many superlatives you can give even the best team before you run out, especially when the games end up not being close. The only thing they didn't mention was that Jake and Luke were first team All-Americans, no other school can say that.
Besides, they had to cover 5 games in three days, and I am pretty sure they had a lot more material to use on Nebraska than either Holy Cross or Yale.

Second, is this jimmy johns story true? Yes. The MLB player Darrin erstad is Nebraska coach. you would think that a MLB player could think back on the season. Hmmm....who is that guy we always pitch 1st in the series? Hey pitching coach, can you get over here? dang it. what is our rotation again? And the JJ story is only true if you believe. Do you believe in miracles? See JJ delivers. So a only a numbskull coach would send his fri night starter out to pick up sandwiches. I'm done explaining my jokes. My material deserves a better audience   |
