    I'm talking the Public Address Announcer on the stadium sound system, not the TV or radio guys.

    Is anyone else really annoyed by the Miami Heat guy. You can hear him load and clear over the TV. I've heard him spend 10 full seconds saying Dwayne Wade for two. I can't watch a Heat game without focusing on that guy; it's like a commercial jingle that you can't stop hearing in your head.

    rant over

    Hahah good thread. I used to hate San Antonio's announcer. It looked like he wasn't saying, he was crying. But they finally fired him.

    really? wow thank god he was a lot more annoying to me than the guy in detroit.


    i still like the PA announcer for the lakers..simple and elegant


    i used to like the clipper one, i think the guy a new guy this year. the old guy was awesome whenever he said cats name

    Cuttino MOOOOOOOWWWBBLEEEEEE

    the new guy doesnt do that.


    i found it funny that the PA guy for the thunder would say stuff like "Russel Westbrook---allright thunder fans we're still in it!" right after a basket was made. Like he was saying things during the game to pump the crowd up, stuff that most PA guys say during timeouts and all

    The PA guy in Miami is terrible. I'm surprised the NBA hasn't said anything to him about it. I mean he's still screaming while the other team is 10 seconds into their possession.

    ^ exactly,

    Apollo Creed: could you please edit your post.
    it's stretches the screen way too far because there is no space.

    yeah yeah yeah. don't be too hard on me. I use the last official version of Mozilla for work reasons..as the lowest common denominator testing browser. This is my testing machine. Don't generally post on my production machines. But, yeah, yet another reason for me to reevaluate what I use as a test platform.

    Well, I've only been to a few Rockets road games, but to me, in person, by FAR the most annoying was the freaking New Jersey Nets guy. Everytime Jason Kidd, Vince Carter, or Richard Jefferson would do ANYTHING, he would have gay little phrases. To mention a few :

    -3 BALL, CORNER POCKET, J-KIDD!
    - V...CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC FOR THE JAM!
    - RICHARD JEFFERSON WITH THE BUCK, J-KIDD WITH THE DRIVE AND DISH!!!!!

    and my all-time favorite
    -OH THE HUMANITY, IT'S VINSANITY!!! (after Vince hit a turn-around jumper to pull the Nets within 8 after being down by 19)

    well, i think the thunder's TV announcers are worse. I was watching the Rox against thunder on League Pass, and it was showing the thunder's team's tv, and the announcers were soooooooooooo annoying. he kept repeating a play that happened like 2 possessions ago. like when someone on the thunder side score, he would keep talking about that play and simply neglect Rox's play.

    So as the Bucks announcers, one time i was watching the LP, n they were talking about Bucks' coach always know when is the good time to call a timeout. they were like "Oh, the coach is really good at calling a timeout when we need a commercial break" :rolleyes:

    Second, third, fourth, and fifth, etc etc to the Miami guy. That guy has been around for a long time too. I remember back when Zo was still in his first stint with the heat, he was still there. Amazing how some people don't know how annoying they are.

    I hate our PA guy. His voice is way too rugged and deep. Why do they all have to scream too.

    The best PA announcer is the Lakers guy. Very classy voice.

    I actually think that's pretty cool. It almost brings the fans closer to the team in a way....makes you feel like you know them.
