Big 10 Network Rounds Out Their Announcing Teams
Wednesday, August 08, 2007
I really don't know what the purpose of having a total of 7 teams for a brand new network that hasn't even aired a game yet. But I guess they'll need this kind of coverage. Here's the list in case you care....
1) Thom Brennaman and Charles Davis
2) Wayne Larrivee and Chris Martin
3) Mark Neely and Glen Mason
4) Roger Twibell and Mike Tomczak (the ex-QB)
5) Jim Kelly (not the ex-QB) and Richard Baldinger
6) Scott Graham and Derrick Walker
7) Ron Thulin and Butler By'not'e
(Special thanks to reader SS for sending the tip.)

Glad to see that ESPN is letting Jim Kelly and Roger Twibell go, and why on earth is Charles Davis allowed to be the lead analyst on anything but the Orlando area JV football round-up?
Is it Jim Kelly the 1970's martial artist?
"5) Jim Kelly (not the ex-QB) and Richard Baldinger"
Is that Brian Baldinger's brother, or did Brian finally take the viewing public's advice and officially change his name to "Dick"?
Nothing like hearing Thom mispronounce the word "third" for three hours ("Tudd down," "Tudd quarter," etc.)
Mmmm, Glen Mason. Tastes like plain white toast.
I can't wait to hear Glen Mason's bewilderment when a team doesn't go to a soft prevent in the middle of the second quarter with a 10 point lead.
I swear, I thought Roger Twibell was dead.
8 comments and no Butler By'not'e reference...shame on you guys.
Roger Twibell is not dead. You sure you weren't thinking of Adrian Karsten?
Butler By'not'e did some outstanding work last fall broadcasting high school football in Ohio.
Apostrophes for all!
Ahhh, feel the Brennemania...
Where's Chris Economaki and Bob Beatty???
