Milwuakee has a terrible color commentator

Watching the Bucks-Warriors game. I don't know the guy's name, but he's been doing their color for at least the last few years. He is GOD AWFUL. I can't think of a worse telecaster in all of pro sports. His voice is annoying, and he says nothing but stupid and obvious things.

It's Milwaukee. It's hard enough for them to find things like decent GMs, coaches, and players. Color commentator is probably their last concern right before "competent janitorial crew".

Even their play-by-play guy is terrible. He just said "don't foul", like he's coaching the Bucks or cheering for them. You're supposed to be CALLING the game clown. You're not their to be a cheerleader.

When the shot clock was down to 1 second right? Couldn't help but laugh. Sometimes announcers just can't contain their homerism.

Off-topic..why the hell don't your guards feed the ball to Bogut when he's rolling to the basket after a nice pick? Instead they take contested jumpers.

It's a mystery.

Our color guy is the one who says "don't foul", and that's Jon McGlocklin, who won an NBA Championship with Kareem and Oscar here. He knows his stuff, he is a homer but a large percentage of NBA commentators are. It's in their nature, especially considering McGlocklin has been a Bucks commentator for around 25 years.

I think you're worrying about something that doesn't matter OP, channel your energy to something worthwhile. Like pressing the mute button when you don't like what you hear.

Yeah our commentators suck. Sadly most team's are about as bad. I doubt I could name 5 good home announcers.

McGlocklin and Paschke aren't the best but they get the job done and I'm not annoyed by them most of the time. I don't think Jon is worth making a thread about. If you don't like the announcers, mute the game.

I like the Wizards guys: Steve Buchantz and Phil Chenier.
