    To anyone who watches the games, why did the Suns get rid of the duo of Al Mcoy and Eddie Johnson. I like Eddie Johnson the man is hilarious but I don't like Tom Leander :thumbsdow he says some really stupid stuff.

    That's what I was wondering. Leander is like a Mr. Obvious type of guy, like the John Madden of basketball I guess you can say. Johnson and McCoy worked very well with each other. I haven't heard anything that indicates why Johnson isn't there anymore. Only thing I can think of is if he picked up another job within the Suns, or some other organization.

    I've listened to the last three or so games on KTAR and McCoy was announcing...

    Al just does radio this year, both home and away. I tried your plan, not because of Leander, tho. I don't mind EJ and Leander, but can't handle that bonehead Gary Bender. But there is apparently a 1-2 second delay in the TV broadcast, and so you hear McCoy announcing what happens a few seconds before you actually SEE it happen on the screen, and it drove me nuts. I guess we'll just have to suffer through it, or else watch with no sound.
