The 124th edition of the Treasure State's fiercest rivalry - Skyline Sports

[BOBCATBORN]

Skyline did a fantastic job in their coverage of Cat griz! As usual.

Even the Tripp video. As I mentioned, I'm not a fan of his, but after Colter posted what a great conversation it was, i gave it a listen and I really did enjoy it.

Thanks @Colter_Nuanez !

Along those lines, I thought Tripp did a nice job on Saturday. He and Ty both were very complimentary of both teams, and he seemed much more sober than Marty. I've heard some gris fans complaining that the broadcast was pro-MSU, but I think every fan base says that, especially when they're losing. Ty got pretty fired up a couple times, but I think he was just trying to add a little energy to that play-by-play guy who seemed pretty monotone on big plays for either team.

I thought Tripp did a fine job. I remember his field antics when he was a player and his perceived hatred for all things Bobcat, but clearly he's grown as a person. Had some really good insights on defensive calls and positioning.
The play-by-play guy's voice was elevated every time the Griz did something well, but that's expected. He's been calling their games all year. I was just glad it wasn't Marty.

It was so nice not having to listen to Marty!

I love Tootell. He and Leo Davis are the best. Fun to listen to and they know how to engage people.

I agree. He’s one of my favorite listens and I don’t understand the criticisms here or just flat out disagree.

Did you listen to his postgame?

I did. It was great. But I guess I am not sensitive about him seeing it as a fan sometimes. Gregorak was ticking me off during the game but soon swung the other direction.

I have not read many criticisms of him overall on this thread. Mostly some things within his comments about the past game. My point is if he wants to do that as a fan, fine then do as your own podcast. It was pushed out under Colters stuff. For me that should be a game recap, not a fan perspective. I would say the same thing about beat reports of the local TV and newspapers. While they cover a team their job at that point is to give a summary. If Skyline or Colter wanted a fan perspective promote it that way and maybe add in Rider or some from Cats side. I thought his analysis was off base due to viewing it that way.

I’m not saying you are doing this….

And, I try to reject putting people in boxes where they have to act a certain way. It’s just less interesting.
