No, I'd prefer Jim Paschke and Jon McGlocklin/Sidney Moncrief remain in their current roles.

MCGlocklin is half retired, but he should stay as long as he likes. Sid was one of the best players in franchise history but bad as an announcer. Paschke can go anytime.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Sid was awful at the beginning of his broadcast tenure, and it hasn't gotten much better. He just lacks any sort of smoothness to his talking.

McGlocklin is fine, even if he did almost murder me with his car.

Paschke is replaceable.

There's a window!

Apparently he didn't see you through it.

I have no idea how he'd be but I'd love to bring D-Mase back in for a TV spot, he seemed like a real intelligent, likeable guy.

Anyone but those three. I feel like I am listening to a game from the early 70s when they call it.

paschke is stodgy and full of 90's cliches like 'with the jam!' if they want to keep him on as a media liaison, doing the video clips and interviews for the website, fine. but a little excitement and analytical insight would be welcomed, and are sorely lacking from the current broadcast team.

mcglocklin probably will always have a job within the organization somewhere, so if i never have to hear about someone getting grilled-cheesed in the pop-up zone during a window when we need a stop, that would be wonderful.

I like Mcglocklin and can deal with Paschke. Moncrief on the other hand is brutally bad.

I could easily see them replaced.

That where I'm at too.

Some how, some way, Sid managed to out-suck Paschke last season.

I'd like to nominate Mike Kelley as Mac's successor.

I think they're fine and stack up well when compared to most other teams. How can you hate Jonny Mac? Paschke is a company guy and so would anybody they have replace him, I don't really hold it against him not bashing his employer. I think a lot of the complaints everybody has about them won't be an issue when we're winning and actually have a core with a direction. Unless there is someone better, there is no reason to change.

From a technical standpoint, Paschke is fine. You rarely hear him screw up a call. I understand if people are tired of him, but he is by no means bad at calling a game. McGlocklin is still pretty solid, too. Moncrief is horrid. Fine with trying him out...but wow. You name an aspect of the job and he was bad at it.

So, to summarize, I'm fine with keeping Paschke and Mac because I still think they're good at the job itself. But I understand if people want fresh voices in there.

If Paschke is strictly broadcasting games, I can live with him.

If he's out there on local TV and bucks.com as the "face" of the franchise, I'm not happy. We need an infusion of youthful vigor and not stodgy old (company) man.

Paschke the play by play guy is still pretty good. It's just his "the franchise can do no wrong" schtick that pisses me off. MCGlocklin is cool and should stay for as long as he can. Just get rid of Sid. Awful awful awful colour guy.

Are you going to hand-deliver the 29-2 results to Edens/Lasry while they are still at the bar tonight?

If Paschke is replaced does that mean Duke will have more time to post here?

Would MacGlocklin being doing more Robert Hacck Diamonds commercials if he wasn't broadcasting? If that were the case I'd say push...
