I noticed Booner was the color man with Bolerjack tonight, and it seemed to me that Boler has a much better rapport with Freakazoid. So, I was wondering what others on here thought. Who do you prefer, the Freak or Booner? Not that the Booner is a bad guy. In fact, he seems like a standup person but I think the Freak is already a better broadcaster.

Booner struggles with words, sentences, common sense, analogies, knowledge. With that said, I'd take him over Harp and Locke any day.
If Booner could talk at regular human speed and consistency, I would pick him. He just too damn slow. I always feel like he is on the verge of falling asleep.
Over Locke? In a heartbeat. I'd take Kathy Griffen over Locke. But I'm down with Mop, er, Freakazoid. Boone has had his time, and he proved to be... acceptable? Time for Mop, who has shown a very good knowledge of the Jazz system (I love it when he criticizes players for missing assignments that we, the casual fan, would have no idea about -- makes it a hell of a lot more interesting if you ask me), has great enthusiasm, and has no awkward silence.

Harpring brings more basketball knowledge and insight (Not to mention excitement) than old Booner, but he makes me cringe with his awful catchphrases and sayings. Also, it can get really annoying when he and Bolerjack miss a big play because they are too busy talking about things like "signage" and fry sauce.
So - neither?

This is Sophie's Choice all over again but Harpring. Booner doesn't know where he is.

His eyes are green, not blue (I've met him). Lots of black people have green eyes. I know several with green eyes.
Harpring is way better than Booner, not even close. I think Harpring is one of the best color men in the league. He's the Troy Aikman of Fox NFL.

I much prefer Booner. Harping, I feel like tries to talk over the game too much to get the attention to himself instead of the game on hand, and talks way too loud for my taste.
