FEENING FOR THE GOLDEN VOICE?

by proletariat on Dec 19, 2006 7:59 PM PST

"INTRO COPY IS LAME:"

Sorry if this info's already been posted, but I was delighted to hear Rory Markus calling USC basketball games on 710 AM tonight.

I find that it's helpful to listen to these broadcasts when I need that springtime (fresh) feeling.

The schedule can be found here:

http://usctrojans.cstv.com/sports/m-baskbl/usc-m-baskbl-body.html

ADMINISTER AS NECESSARY... I doubt that consuming 5+ beers will convince your ears that it's an Angels game... but it's all you've got. After all, XM Radio homeplate can only broadcast so much hot stove...

Angels, Lakers, Rams, Bruins and...

Kings - I was a Kings fan before the Ducks came in the league. I kinda root for the Ducks though - they are whooping ass this season...

USC

I'll never understand why have of Southern California high schoolers idolize the place. If it's possible to be "overrated" as a college, USC is the Derek Jeter of universities and academics.

Go Angels, NY Giants, Celtics, Scarlet Knights, and...uh, Mets?

And Banana Slugs.

Don't forget the Banana Slugs.

Me too!

yes

good times. let me guess... your last name is either Nguyen or Kim.

by Hutch (someone took my name) on Dec 21, 2006 11:52 AM PST up reply actions

Not even close.

But it was an understandably safe bet on your part.

by HeyLegacy on Dec 21, 2006 12:48 PM PST up reply actions

Yes!!

Not very often you hear the Go Banana Slugs. I second that, but I'm not sure exactly what team we are rooting for. ;-) Tennis maybe?

by LosAngel on Dec 20, 2006 10:54 AM PST up reply actions

I was thinking

Ultimate Frisbee. Or maybe swimming?

by Caseys Kiss of Death on Dec 20, 2006 10:56 AM PST up reply actions

I am a Gaucho

and the Banana Slugs had nothing on our Ultimate Frisbee team when I was there. I did not participate I would like to make that very clear.

GMJ step number one in a plan for continued dominance, or step number one in a plan for severe weight loss through explosive vomiting?

Is UCSB the Gauchos?

Feels like the 1970's all over again. <sigh>

It sure is.

The people who play ultimate

are either:

a) too good to play for one of the sports created by "the man"
b) not legitimate enough athletes to play on any real sports team

i went to UCSC for a year and one quarter before transferring out.

by Caseys Kiss of Death on Dec 20, 2006 1:41 PM PST up reply actions

I would have to add

or c. Hippies.

That is why I wanted to make it clear that I DID NOT PARTICPATE in ultimate frisbee.

Choice "a"

is the hippies, maaaaaan.

by Caseys Kiss of Death on Dec 20, 2006 1:45 PM PST up reply actions

True

I just wanted to type hippies.

That one made me smile

The Derek Jeter of Universities. I live out in Yankee land...you have no idea how true that is.

About USC or Derek Jeter?

by Hutch (someone took my name) on Dec 20, 2006 10:54 AM PST up reply actions

Both

...but especially Derek

Rory may have a nice voice, but...

...it's just too bad his Angels play-by-play is riddled with errors. Bring back Dick Enberg. Hell, bring back anyone other than the current tandem. The Angels deserve better.

One little win in a football game

and suddenly Bruin fans everywhere can crawl out from under their rocks, or wherever else they have been hiding. Yes, children, this is what sunlight looks like. Please enjoy it while you still can.

(Disclaimer: I attended neither UCLA nor USC. I was raised a USC fan, however. These days, my son - Rubix - is a UCLA grad student. And a happy one at that.)

C'mon Stirrups...

The 7 yrs before this USC run was dominated by the Bruins. I would'nt necessarily say we've been under a rock - especially during basketball season.

Please do something good this offseason...

I'm still searching HH

for those college hoop fans who came into this baseball blog back around February 20th, advocating their allegiance to UCLA basketball... ; )

by Stirrups on Dec 20, 2006 2:53 PM PST up reply actions

I actually stumbled onto

HH during this past baseball season but I do admit - it sucked losing to SC at basketball. And with Mayo coming it sucks even more that they might be getting better :)
