Fowler

Can someone please tell Fowler how to pronounce Rosier's last name. There is no H in his name. Was driving me crazy last night every time he said Rozhier

That's the correct pronunciation according to the school.

ro-ZEER or RO-zee-er are incorrect. It's RO-zhur.

What's the difference between complaining about announcers and complaining about posters?

Mine is an observation based in fact.

Theirs is a projection of their sad existence.

The only enjoyment they seem to get out of their miserable lives is whining about people who are much better at their jobs than they are (Fowler and Herbstreit) and a network that isn't doing what they allege.

Your on a message board arguing and being negative in multiple threads the day after our biggest win in ages: fact.
 
Fowler and Herbstreit are one of the best duos in the game. Besides the moment where Fowler pulled up the Catholics vs Convicts shirt, they were talking up the canes all night. They were loving the turnover chain. Herbstreit calls it like it is and does a great job analyzing plays.

Y’all are a bunch of Kelly Stouffer fan boys
 
for those of us following for decades especially through the apexes of the program, know that the football world cannot stand to see us rise and suceed, just like one of our players said last week. it has always been that way ad will always be that way and, frankly, i would not like it any other way. the world is that 5-5 redneck that fuels HurricaneVision.

by the way, where is Keith Jackson. Best play by play announcer ever. great passion, great voice, great narrative.

Is that the broadcast guide from Toole? I thought that guide was updated after the Duke game to make it RO-zhur. Hmm.

Canes 581 posted that up on the previous page of this thread, it was stated that it was THIS seasons guide.

FYI..I just went back and watched Malik highlights from a few other games and every announcer was pronouncing it as Ro Zeer...no H

So I guess Im the dope for calling out Fowler who is the only one I have ever heard say his name with ZH and sound like a younger Lou Holtz

I read somewhere that it was pronounced “Ro-shure”

What do you disagree with about statements made?

What exactly are you talking about?
I took your negs (feedback) as disagreements. You've been a reasonable poster. Would like to know what you think makes Fowler and Herbie a positive listen.
It wasn’t personal (I’m a fan of your analysis and breakdowns); I’m not discriminatory in my downvotes (I try to be objective; if I regard a poster as worthless, I just utilize the ignore user function - and I do it liberally); I disagree with what seems like the prevailing board meme that ESPN is the enemy and I vote that belief accordingly.

I don’t mind Fowler or Herbie. I guess because I don’t expect them to enlighten me or entertain me. A very low bar, I know, but i don’t believe they warrant the level of vitriol dished out by this board. That’s my opinion. You’ve been upvoted by me far more, infinitely more, than downvoted. It happens.

Go Canes 9-0!

I'm encouraging you to disagree. I wanted to understand on what grounds. No big deal. Again, I don't dislike Fowler and Herbie on venom spewed at us or not. I just don't like their styles and broadcasts. There are other broadcast teams I prefer.
 
Come on, people. Count your blessings.

NOBODY rides Irish **** like Brent Musberger.

Just go back to any of the video outtakes of the 1988 UMVsND game.

True story...Brent hated us and didnt even try to hide it. He made Mark May look tame

they become much less dynamic when they don't have the ESPN agenda bullet points to reference ie. Baker Mayfield, OSU best DL ever, Saquan Barely, Bama dyck riding

Straight facts.

My boy in Houston was watching UM for the first time this season and he was shocked at the playmakers we had. Like he had no clue. He's asking me who is this McIntosh guy? Where is Johnson from? Why have I never heard of Mike or Joe Jackson? Redwine? Homer? Herndon? Berrios?

The nation got their first glimpse of us last night, as did Folwer and Herbie, and I think they were caught off guard by what we've been cooking with down here. It's crazy bc we have one of the best TE's. DE's, DT's. Safeties, and CB's in the nation, and they get no kind of burn outside of Florida.

That's basically my point. For a leading duo, their depth is really surprising. I don't know if ESPN skimps on the researchers, but much of the insight provided is how we'd explain the games to our grandmothers. I don't really care if they support us or not, so long as they're not trying to undermine us. I've heard other broadcast teams at least give football or player insight. Happy as heck to avoid listening to them.

Fans love to act like they know everything. So when you get a color guy actually breaking down x and os they feel insecure because they have no idea what they’re watching. I’ve heard people bash Collinsworth, Danielson and Romo for simply breaking down what we’re seeing.

The worst in sports is Mack Brown. He tells you water is wet all game. I’m not sure if he takes a minimal approach to commentating but it makes you scratch your head and wonder if he really knows what the **** is going on.
Agreed. I get not everyone is into the play breakdowns. But, maybe the staffers can give these guys some player insights. I get this isn't science; just my personal opinion. I despise listening to a game where people are speaking for the sake of speaking. Love listening/watching games where people add something to what's plainly on the screen.

Again, I don't care about Fowler and Herbstreit in terms of what they think about us (sans the low blows). I'm commenting about their general product. Even when I watch them give other teams' games, I feel the same way.

Lu, if you love nerdy broadcast breakdowns, you would love Chris Cooley (former skins TE). He's on the radio in the DC area and works on skins game. He geeks out on game analysis and was a huge McVay guy several years back.
 
Very subtle moment from the broadcast last night that shows why I fux with Herbie --

Fowler is holding up his orignal Catholics vs. Convicts T-Shirts and building up that BS narrative. The entire time he's talking Herbie looked somewhat uncomfortable with everything Fowler's spewing. He tosses the shirt to Herbie, who then promptly tosses it toward the ground and instead of continuing w the Catholics vs. Convicts talk, talks about how Miami s ND back then was instant classic must see TV.

Fowler then gets in a couple more cheap shots (not as many convicts on the team as there was back then), but I really can't stand that smug basterd, and i'm usually one to give the media a break.

You shoulda watched espn this morning. Booger macfarland says “somewhere, Nevin Shapiro is happy” then goes on to bring up the convicts for Catholics crap. There’s such an obvious bias at that network

******* picked VT before the game and I'm sure will pick ND as well. ***** them all, us against the world, the way it was and will always be
