I this also helps my argument that a lot of these ladies sound very similar.

Doris Burke is a basketball announcer. Looks like it was Beth Mowins for Mahomes' first game in Denver.

The Gal who kept calling to get Grill the ball in the Drake MU game was an idiot.

Stop it.

My sandwich isn't going to make itself.

They need to dub in oven timers and pot sounds in the background while they talk.

Fact is, it's probably a little early to say much about this considering women haven't had many opportunities to call games for the "big 3", NFL, MLB, NBA until recently. And let's face it, most announcers are pretty mediocre, man or woman.

That said, as a tennis fan, I always thought Mary Carillo was pretty good, along with Pam Shriver, Martina Navratilova and Mary Jo Fernandez. All can hold their own with the men.

Having lived in NYC for awhile, I would catch some Yankees broadcasts, and Susan Waldman/Wildman? isn't terrible, nor was Nancy Newman. Certainly no worse than the insufferable Michael Kay or John ****ing Stirling. Not exactly a high bar, but I digress...

Aside from that, I haven't heard enough women calling games to really give much of an opinion.

.

Hannah Storm and Andrea Kramer did an alternative track Amazon prime football game a few years ago. No joke, I thought it was pretty awful. But neither is a play by play person. Not their forte.

no

have them on the sidelines looking pretty like Erin Andrews back in the day

KC_Connection 03-22-2025 07:53 PM

Depends entirely on if they’re good.

ChiefsCountry 03-22-2025 08:07 PM

They make every game seem like a Big Ten D team matchup that kicks off at 11am on ESPN2

Frazod 03-22-2025 08:11 PM

No, mainly because I've never heard a good one.

There was one in particular who I thought was terrible calling a college game who sounded like Ms. Hathaway from The Beverly Hillbillies. She was absolutely awful. But still better than Romo.
