Broadcasting Team Review - Now's Your Chance for Input

Meh. I was only given the ability to rate the on air personalities when what I really wanted was to kvetch about the super irritating Jazz + viewing experience most notably to include the irritating omni-present SEG spinny logo.
I'm voting with my wallet and not re-upping Jazz + this month. It's the only feedback I can provide on what matters to me.

Locke is my most hated local sports personality.
That guy also rubs me the wrong way. He has the ability to turn from water carrier to leading expert to a hyperbolic / doom-and-gloom fanboy within a single sentence.

He also likely throws a car dealer ad into that same sentence.
 
As critical of Boler I have been at times I have to say he has had said great calls over the years. Harpring called him out on some things and I do kind of miss that dynamic they had. The 3 team crew nowadays is a bit of a mess.
The 3 team never works. Boler and Harp were much better.
 
The current group is not great. Holly doesn't add anything. Boler is starting to know a little basketball after only really knowing football, but it is still painful at times. Thurl is basketball-wise, but so boring to listen too. The team is fun to watch, but the broadcasters are boring and lack any real emotion other than Holly rambling on about stupid stuff that is rarely related. Thurl is super nice, but listening to him talk is a cure for insomnia.

Speaking factually rather than snidely, Locke's primary responsibility is that of salesman.
He's been fired before and knows it's his only winning strategy to survive in the SEG
 
When you have a Big 3, one of them always needs to sacrifice and tone down their game.

On the Jazz announcing team, Holly is like a Miami Chris Bosh who keeps taking heat check 3's.
Holly might be a decent play by play person but doing color in this setting does not work at all. And KK was better at interviews.
