I think the mis-interpretation that anyone was directing negative comments at your boy D-Mac has your emotions shading your wisdom.  Don't tie yourself to a sinking ship, Pat.  You made a mistake; best to let it go. 

Brett Adams did a poor job.  Having watched a few thousand games and using last weekend's commentators as a comparison, he failed.  The talk-up of the SMC team as they left the court was appropriate, but it was lost in the build-up of a poor game.  I realize that one fan chose to call that particular point out, but really the whole game was a failure.  That was simply the last chapter (which usually is the most memorable).  It's not the end of the world... he's a coach, not a commentator.  He'll still put dinner on the table.

I want to second dipfanatic.  I thought the play-by-play was not only even but pretty good.  Technical difficulties are an annoying part of the territory when you are doing one-off, low-budget work.  You can hold your head high.  I have no complaints with your work, d-mac. 

The color commentator was AWFUL; and not just because his bias was so bad.  He butchered the english langauge, often struggling to find the correct term because  he was searching for "big words".  He was clearly pulling for SMC, which is OK if you don't let it impact the quality of your work.  I thing Troy Aikman does a fine job of calling a Dallas-NY game, and I am a Giants fan.  Someone called "coach" should be capable of adding some value to the broadcast.  This guy fell more than short.  I hope he is not on the airwaves tonight.

I can't go to the games so I really appreciate the broadcasts.  Thanks for making them possible.
