Watching the Kansas-Mich St. game on TV, I have a couple complaints. Am I not seeing how it makes sense to play in the Stadium instead of the Fieldhouse? The lower level isn't even filled up, so it looks bad on TV. And I don't think it's because the two teams don't have any fans, they're both not that far away. I think it's because Lucas Oil is just so damn big. Which means it's probably a lot more expensive to open up for an event (especially when it means turning the place into a completely different sporting venue). But who knows, maybe it's just to show off our new toy... I can live with that.

 

So my other complaint, who the hell is the obnoxious commentator? The guy's a complete nozzle! He's just vomiting nonsense. He's stepping all over the other announcer, his hyperbole is completely over-the-top, and I'm pretty sure I heard made-up words more than once.

 

It's a good thing I'm more interested in the UNC-Gonzaga game, I'm switching back to that... Jim Nantz and Clark Kellogg don't make me want to pour bacon grease into my ears until I'm permanently deaf..... and delicious!
