    LMAO!

    Moe gets a foul called on him, he hits the basketball support... turns around to the ref and goes "Hey, I do that all the time. All the time." LOL.

    I'd give them some time to gel before I'd say that.....Mike Rice is an incredible basketball mind but not an incredible broadcaster in my view...he's a guy that would work well with Wheels on the radio though. I like Hurd....I just think he's going to ease into a comfort zone and is probably having a little nervous energy to start out...these guys know they're under the microscope and people liked the Mikes

    Does Gen Y suffice? If you were born between the years of 1980 and 2000, you are a member of the generation cohort colloquially known as the millenials. Little lesson for you. Hope you learned.

    Your argument is that Mike rice, the drunken old man caricature with legs, is not the corny one?!?! Lolll man oh man that's a bigger stretch than what our 3 point shooting is doing to Utahs defense.

    I've seen him play quite a bit w/ the Heat & today (I know it's just preseason but...)... he's EASILY played his best, most confident (& calm), & most controlled game of his young NBA career (MUCH more to come!:blazerwookie:).

    Reminds me of the Beavers radio guy. I always wanted that kind of voice for a team I liked.

    I know what millennial means. I just don't get what that has to do with anything.
