I wanted to bet on the Iowa Connecticut game, but I was working my balls off all day at work… Just finally got home and turned the game on. Fubo is my only option and it’s streaming ESPN. Maybe I have special announcers but the two women sound completely Stoned to me. Like I cannot believe this is the level of enthusiasm for two great programs at this stage of the season is someone else getting a different audio and video feed?

Now they’re showing the announcers… I wonder what is in those red cups… They should order pizza

My apologies if I’m the only one with this bizarre AV feed

Yeah for the most part the women's announcers along w their halftime version of The View is nothing but excitement. They over-inflate every single thing that's done to make it look like the best play ever.

LMAO too b/c I've seen them advertise that Bird/Taurasi show and I've always thought to myself, nah no thanks haha!

I happened to watch about the last 10 mins of the Conn/Iowa gm w/ Sue Bird (Oregon)/Taurisi (UConn) on espn2..
Sue Bird was the 'glue' that holds that broadcast together, Taurisi appears to just be a kind of 'street' talker, as if she just walked off
the court from a pick-up game.. no polish, and acts as if she doesn't really care to be polished lol

I DO value their opinions and observations more than the hyped up announcers (whoever they are)! as I do most former players over just talking heads.. and Bird is easy on the eyes!

I still haven't gotten into the women's game much, but they did some good scheduling cuz there wasn't much else on last night lol..
and they have a great crowd, enthusiastic.. refs seem to let a LOT of fouling go to keep the pace of play almost at a frantic level..
and I also thought it quite odd that Taurisi was constantly drinking (not sure what).. she didn't seem drunk though, just overly thirsty lol

I think the success of the Manning brothers broadcast on MNF made the Espn execs decide it was worth a try.. and I think it is w/a little tweaking.
