Hollinger gives ROY to Jazz

At least when Harpring talks, it is relevant to what is currently going on in the game. Boone is horrible with this.

Like fry sauce? And heads on sticks? And signage? Harp seems like a hyper-active 8 year old to me, and he is annoying repetitive. Next time I hear "go-go gadget arms" it will be too soon. Bring back Booner.
 
Harpring is a GREAT announcer when he sticks his talk to BASKETBALL, but he just thinks he is so funny with his repetitive jokes/ just being plain goofy that it makes him very irritating to listen too.

Boone is obsessed with talking about the play that happened 4 possessions ago. If that's not annoying, I don't know what is.
 
Harp is easily one of the best color guys I have heard in a long time. Booner sucks, and pretty much always has. He was good with Hot Rod because his bumbling incoherence didnt stand out so much with Rod being drunk.
Hollinger is spot on with this.

It isnt a surprise, however, to hear all the haters. Same people have hated on pretty much everything Jazz related for years. Coach, players, front office, announcers. Nothing new.

Sounds like satire to me Lance-get-in-my-pants. Harpring plucked away?

Then you didn't see the clip of Nash having his practice shorts on right before tip-off. He had to be shielded by a wall of teammates and switch with one of the Suns' subs. Pretty funny stuff.
 
I think Harpring is rather entertaining. I don't understand all the hate on this site for him. But then this site is full of know it alls and haters. I only still post here because of habit. I wanted to get banned awhile back so it would force me off, but it never happened.
 
It's funny, I don't mind Harpring and I laugh when I see you guys complaining about him, so for me it is win-win. Except the Jazz lose a lot, so it is win-win-lose.

I welcome every game done by Ron Boone. Usually I don't even notice for a couple quarters until I start asking myself "why am I not flying into an uncontrollable rage as per usual?" Then I realize what's different.

I have lived in 5 NBA cities and I travel a lot so I have listened to a lot of announcers. I rate Boone at the low end and have wondered why the Jazz keep him. I think Harp is one of the best. Hollinger got this one right.
 
one question: Have any of you ever actually used an "Intelli-bed"



and it seems to me that Harp is one of the least "homeristic" announcers around

but Stacey King, the Bulls color commentator, could certainly give him a run for his money in the deep-throated little growl category - - and they're the only two I've noticed that really do that. Anyone else come to mind?
