Re: Larry, Sonny, and Sam- the radio trio must go

For awhile I had to listen to their games because I live in New York, but now I just steal the video feed off the web. My biggest complain about these guys isn't just that they're boring or stupid or inept, but that they in fact are constantly WRONG. They will make announcements as to what happened without waiting for the ref; for example they will declare a first down when in fact there wasn't one. They call completions intereceptions and vice versa. During critical moments of the game, they will shout out what they wanted to happen, rather than what actually did, without understanding that their audience isn't watching the game with them and mistook their exclamation as an actual occurance. My wife pointed out that they sound like two people reacting to a game in living room, rather than hired professionals whose first commitment is to the audience. I'm not sure that they understand the concept of a radio audience. Let me rephrase that; they have no understanding of the concept of a radio audience. If I can't steal a good video feed, I will listen to the game (via nfl.com) through the opposing team's announcers.
