An Open Letter to David Stern and ABC/Disney

If you want me to watch game 6, turn down the sound on the P.A. announcer. He sounds like a ffffffffffffffffffffffffriggin' mamamamamamoron.

At the very least speed it up. They have the longest intros in the league.

It's not the intro's its the in game stuff. When some one hits a shot or takes a free throw. I don't even mind them doing it (in there own stadium), but there is no reason it needs to go out over the air waves. If often drowns out the announcers.

All you have to do is when he says, "Deeeeetroit Basketball" is follow it up with, "Sucks Balls". C'mon now, it's actually quite fun.

Not really, even if we lose the series, that doesn't change the fact that your PA announcer is an embarrassment.

Hey Thoma, what's wrong with you? Don't you know that fans aren't allowed to trash talk on a message board, ever? :wavefinger: :wavefinger: :wavefinger:
