OT: Official Sports Media Thread VI - Doc Emrick wins play by play Emmy for 6th consecutive year

[LSCII]

I am starting to wonder though if it was cut up audio and just playing around. Kind of like Gerry this morning joking saying Columbus is an original six team and people falling for it and calling in to correct him.

I am not sure though since I have not heard the Dale Arnold stuff.

I wasn't listening from the jump, so it could have possibly been. I was flipping stations and it was just on.

Dale Arnold not understanding who the Bruins would be playing next if they won the series vs Toronto says a lot to me about his depth of knowledge on the sport and team he's paid to cover.

That seems...really weird. I don't really do sports radio, and I haven't hear the clip, but from watching him on TV, I'd think he'd understand the bracket format change. It's been in effect for, what, five years now, with this being six? I'm not one to say everything is faked, but it just seems really, really odd that he wouldn't know the format.

Of course, the fake cut could be from lots of sources - out of context clip from 2-3 years ago, a quickly corrected mistake, or a "We don't know who the Bruins are going to see next round - the Jackets of the regular season, or the Jackets of the post-season", which is actually a genuinely good question.

Zolak should only be on the radio during football season. He brings nothing to the table when talking any other sport. I like Zo but this mid day show is god awful.

I feel the exact same way. I think both mid-day shows are mediocre.

I think Felger and Mazz are way more entertaining and they are actually interested in more than one sport. I get tired of their whole shtick too, but at least they can talk about more than just the Patriots.

It's amazing NBC Sports Boston thought bringing in Tomase was wise. I've changed the channel at the mere mention of his name, let alone when he has popped up on my screen.

Smart move. Majority of them sit in waiting rooms and barbershops until they are completely irrelevant and out dated.

Wonder if they’ll have a big finale last printed edition. Probably have Lebron on it.

Hated Chris Berman, and hated their treatment of the NHL, too. Good riddance to the magazine. Hope ESPN disappears altogether.

I'm absolutely stunned by this news.

I honestly thought it had ceased operations years ago because it was so bad. I can't believe it lasted this long...
