Justin and Drew are out. Wonder if it’s COVID or holiday leave.
But Chris and Glenn are WAY better

An improvement over JK and Drew. I had my doubts about Miller as a PxP guy
but he's done a solid job.

I wonder if Chris Miller wanted the PxP job originally, though I know he's done some of that in the past and wasn't bad. I don't see anything happening this season. Guys are just on holiday vacation. But I can't imagine Zach and Ted not noticing the positive vibes CM has been getting on social media and the negative vibes Kutcher and Gooden get. I know Zach got rid of Buck and Phil due to their age, though Chris probably is around 10 years older than Kutch but 15 years younger than Buck.

Wait, is this a permanent switch? Was there any announcement or anything?

I’d absolutely prefer to have Buck and Phil back. And Kara was great. But Chris Miller and Gooden as a pair are growing on me. Gooden’s gotten better as he’s become more comfortable criticizing. And he’s toned down the schtick a little. Miller’s pretty solid and can be funny.
I also don’t mind Christi Winters Scott.
All in all, lose Kutcher and Consor for good and atleast the broadcast isn’t a negative.
In Rizzo we trust

I'm surprised how good Miller's been. I've never been a fan of his interviews, but play by play may be his niche. Gooden has improved dramatically since he started last year. Christi's real good - too good to be a backup. I'm guessing someone hires her away.

Remember, Christy is a HS basketball coach AND does games on ESPN. That’s why I don’t think she’s able to be full time.

Meghan is good at play by play and color analysis. This would be a great duo on TV

It's probably to be expected because these guys have nice jobs and understandably want to keep them, (I would)
but the unrealistic evaluation of the team wears thin.

Re: New Wizards TV Broadcast: Justin Kutcher & Drew Gooden (2019-Present)
Our whole broadcasting crew stinks by-and-large. I'm kind of confused by some of the love for Miller. Always in some way making it about himself, kind of always kissing up to the players he knows he needs to kiss up to (i.e., mostly Beal).
There's just no sense of professionalism around with our broadcasters. There's always going to be a homer element among local broadcasters, but our guys reek of the nepotism that permeates this franchise. They all are lap dogs for the franchise and it's big names. It seems like the Ted prefers yes men and women, instead of anything that goes against the grain. Just last night, Consor was talking about using the young guys as trade chips, after blowing smoke up any and every veteran the team has. I wonder where that's coming from...

Glenn Consor and Chris Miller are talking to Tommy often. So when they're saying this stuff, buckle up buttercups! We may see something crazy. I hope we don't trade our lotto pick for Brogdon.
When Miller was talking about PGs, I was like aw hell no.
When I heard Kutcher talking about parlays on the broadcast, I was like WTH?
Then I see this obsession with their BOLD PREDICTIONS every night.

I think it may be coming from he Wizards trying to keep Beal around who is an unrestricted free agent.
