That's awesome. I'd like to punch the announcer in the face.

Al McGuire was so bad in the tank for UNC in those last few seconds that its an entry on his Wiki page. It's called "The Pine Bluff Incident". lol

Probably the worst case of a network announcer losing his objectivity of all time.

My dad refused to listen to our games that he was on the call for. He'd turn the volume down and sync Mike Nail to the broadcast.

We must be brothers.  My dad did the same whether it was McGuire or whoever.  Drove me nuts then but now I understand the reasoning.
