Re: Barry Melrose...

In the first game it appeared to be the University of Western Michigan State vs. Union, and looking at the East Regional thread it looks like the UMass-Amherst Riverhawks are playing the Miami Redhawks.

UMass leads the Hurricanes at halftime.

Re: Barry Melrose...

why don't they hire the local team announcer to call the games? one teams play-by-play, anothers color. I bet they'd do it for free. at least they'd know the guys on the team. and where the team is from.

I meant to post this earlier when it happened, but a UML player (Wright I think) was answering a Buccigross question during the first intermission and Barry blatantly jumps in, interrupts the answer and asks his own question.

I don't even hate Melrose. I think he's hilarious.

The Tebow trade has already cost them.

Re: Barry Melrose...

I like how he called Norm Bazin "Normie" and Doug Carr "Dougie" throughout the game, like he is now their BFF. I was also told that the UML student section was cheering/heckling Mr. Melrose with chants during the TV timeouts. Bar-ry Mel-rose

Re: Barry Melrose...

Me thinks it is good... Melrose on the call... despite he doesn't know so much about the college game. However, he's forgotten more about hockey thank anyone here knows. Be happy with what we have.
