browns/seahawks game today, the lead announcer (dunno his name right now) was doing one of those in-game promos for the simpsons halloween special tonight...

obviously, he was reading straight from the sheet, and never has watched the simpsons.

here's exactly what he said, or read, as the case may be:

"Halloween's not over, until Homer says d'oh'

only, he didn't pronounce it as 'doh', he pronounced it, 'dee-oh'..

i guess just reading it, and never hearing homer say d'oh, you wouldn't know..

just caught my attention, i laughed, and remembered this thread..

dee-oh is pretty funny.


I've come to expect some pretty inane things out of the Grizzlies announcers.
They used to have some terrific announcers including a guy named Don Poier who moved from radio to TV who I considered one of the best I've heard.
But he sadly passed-away mid-season a couple years ago and every combo they've tried since then have not been very good.
The radio team is even worse than the TV guys. Since you just saw a TV broadcast I know this is hard to believe. But incredibly it is true.

it was, actually...i'm drinking (go brownies!), and him saying, in some stiff, old white-man voice, 'halloween is not over until homer says dee-oohhh', was hilarious to me.

I'm going to include stupid moments in sports-broadcasting in general as opposed to just what the announcer says.

NBC's football night just turned out all the studio lights I guess to conserve energy or something for their green week promotion.
Ummmmm.....ok.

I felt embarrassed for Costas and Collinsworth. Collinsworth had a WTF look on his face the whole time.
