Until Next time, Beth Mowens.

There is finally an app that automatically syncs your favorite announcers to TV viewing.

Costs 129 per year for all sports.

So far Auburn, Duke, and Georgia Tech are the only schools partnered up to the service.

I will buy a one game pass just to see how easy it is first.

I like it in theory, but I also begrudgingly appreciate the spectacle of the big money big game big TV broadcasts

ESPN does everything they can to prevent you from doing it manually, adding extra time to commercials so you get behind and other BS. I tried, though I'm not saying I'm super thrilled with Andy Burcham all the time--loses his temper on the refs all the time and misses a lot.

I'll fork over 129 once I get an A.I. Jim Fyffe or Rod Bramlett with it. They'd have to pay me $129 to listen to Burcham.

Come on, he isn't great but he's not that bad.

Burcham certainly isnt as bad as some of the announcers.

Especially in basketball. We would be playing some elite team in basketball on the west coast, and one of the elitist announcers isnt even trying to hide his biases.

Or there are the buzz saw games where the announcer is beside himself that this no-name school is taking it to Auburn. Anybody remember when Vandy almost beat Auburn in 2016ish? The announcers were disappointed Auburn ended up winning.

I’ve been manually syncing the radio and TV the past few years. Which is pausing and trying to get it just right. I found it was easiest around kickoff. And every now and then it requires another pause.

I do enjoy the radio broadcast. It seems more detailed and accurate. I’ll have to check this out.

Fyffe was 9/10, Rod was 8/10, Andy is probably 6/10.

Radio broadcast is always better. They have to “show, not tell” by nature.

Ok, I'm asking. And I am a cheap bastard. Who in the hell would pay $130 a year just to have their radio sync up with TV for a game? That is ridiculous if you ask me. Listen to the TV broadcast and then on Sunday, take your wife out for a nice dinner.

Good grief. Quit wasting money people.

To each their own. I am light on subs. I just now turned Youtube TV back on because I dont watch TV after basketball season ends.


Also everyone has their own expensive habits, good or bad. I am really trying to get into fishing but fishing is expensive. I am slowly working my way into it. Thanks to hyperinflation (Thanks Obama Biden and fellow libtard Trump) 130 dollar debts arent even a drop in the bucket.

Fair points. Agreed, people might say the same about crap I spend money on.

Can’t decide who’s worse… Beth Mowins or Andy Burcham

I don't mind Andy as far as announcing goes, but I cannot stand the sound of his voice. Not his fault, I just have a hard time listening to it. Like nails on chalkboard.

Andy is not good. The only thing that saved home was Stan, I can’t even listen to it now.
