Rose Must GO

[Licensed to Ill]

Anyone listening to the Husker baseball game when he said our first basemen dove on the ground ball like a Marine in Fallujah diving on a live grenade?

I'm starting a petition for a new broadcaster.

 

I think maybe the trailer voice guy for the movies would be good. or maybe Larry the Cable Guy!

Makes me long for the days of a beautiful October Saturday with my transistor radio listening to Lyle say: "Good afternoon football fans"...the smell of burning leaves in a trash barrel, all the neighborhood kids from small-town Nebraska getting together for a pick-up game of tackle football. No wimpy touch football for us.

any audio of this, younger fan would love to hear it

 

i have heard the johnny rodgers run over and over so i know the voice just wondering if there was any audio out there

[aweshucks]

I loved Pavelka and Sadlemeyer, and wish they would come back. But Kugler would be an excellent second choice.

 

IMO, Rose and Fiala are an embarrassment.

[nu4everfan15]

i love kugler on unsportsmanlike conduct but have never heard him call a game. I am waiting to listen to his texas and ohio state call. i bet he would relate more to the vocab of this age.

Kent and Gary back in the booth.

 

Larry on the sidelines.

Rose isn't that bad during the games, even though I don't like how he gets overly excited about a 3 yard run. Only problem I have with him is on the Callahan show. He has some of the stupidest statements, followed by even dumber questions. I enjoy watching the Callahan show cause it involves the football team, Big Red Extra on NETV is also a great alternative and you get to list to Adrian whose vioce I never get tired off

[indianahusker]

Gary was terrific.

Kent was terrible...

"It's first and 10 from the 20 yard line...QB takes the snap...(excited) the blackshirts have him for a Big loss at the 25!!!!...Second and 3 from the 27..."

He absolutely NEVER knew where the ball was, or the line of scrimmage. And he tried waaaaaaay too hard to come up with something clever, and all he could come up with was "Touchdown, touchdown touchdown!". Hated the Tommie Frashuh thing. It's FrazieR!

However, having worked with JR about 10 years ago at KLIN, I think he's an arrogant little man who thinks he's better than he actually is. He tries too hard to impress with his vocabulary. He does follow the ball pretty well. And Fiala isn't so good, either. They both kiss NU's butt waaaaaay too much.

I loved Lyle. NU could do better than Rosie.

[JTempl]

And I quote: "I pick the guy from Norman, OK as the player of the game. Zac Taylor....he drinks coffee with a spoon in it, that's how regular of a guy he is..."

 

What a freakin' idiot. Does he think these cheezy and hard to translate metaphores and hyperbole make his sound smart and his broadcast more entertaining? It is beyond annoying.

 

How do we get a pertition or something going to replace that dolt?

 

Cheezus Kreist!

[bornNUred]

Never liked him ever since whats-his-name left.

The guy you're talking about is Warren Swain.

[aweshucks]

Swain sucked, too, but I'd prefer him over Rose any day of the week.

 

All I remember from Fiala was during the "Miracle in Mizzouri," he sounded like a pig rooting for food, and Swain was pretty much clueless.

[BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA]

It was painful listening to Rose do the game.

 

At half time he was talking about some place in California he was looking forward to going to next week to have SUSHI. 'Nuff said.

[Pedro Guerrero]

Gary was terrific.

Kent was terrible...

Couldn't agree with you more. The only reason people like him is because he was around for the run in the 90's and hearing him gives them that warm and fuzzy feeling. He stunk and is highly overrated. He was a joker and bolted because he wanted more cash. Kugler isn't very good at doing the CWS games or the High School games on TV but he pretty good on Unsportman like conduct. MikeL is another story. He SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I couldn't agree more. It's like since he is the "Voice of Husker Football" he is God or something. The only reason he is the guy is because Steve P likes him for some reason. Waitt Radio(ESPN) offered more that the Pinnacle Network for the new contract but for some reason the Huskers didn't go with it. I can't wait for the Nebraska Texas game because Kuglar is doing it for ESPN, and he will do way better than Rose.
