billikenfan05 Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I will be making 2 large signs. One that says 1000 points and one telling Bill Johnson that we are not Pelicans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Box and Won Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 i remember just taking lots of screenshots of the sluts in the arena and ignoring his broadcast. And remember there was a woman who would come on and read the stats, apparently unaware of the fact that she was on air? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kshoe Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I'm going to have to find the Portland broadcast just to hear this guy again. Priceless stuff......... It wasn't just the Pelicans that he messed up. He twice called Tubby Smith something more like "Greg Smith" when referencing Majerus' Utah team that lost to Kentucky in the finals. I truly expected a "boom goes the dynamite" at the end of the broadcast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I truly expected a "boom goes the dynamite" at the end of the broadcast. p.s. I don't think threads from 2010 are still available on the Billikens.com search feature but if they were pulling up the 2010 GDT and pulling all of this guy's mistakes would be priceless. Listening to that assclown in the 2nd half actually made that game semi-enjoyable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwyjibo Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 What to call Portland? 1. Plots (misread) 2. Pilates (malopropism like "Pelicans") 3. Vikings (right Portland wrong university) 3. Huskies (wrong Portland and university) 4. Sea Dogs (wrong Portland AND wrong sport so my favorite). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a great read: http://www.billikens.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=19901 Looks like we were calling the old woman "Marge." The announcer was calling CS "Salucich," PE "Urkelee," and Tubby Smith "Tubby Graves." At 10:02 p.m., we became the Pelicans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chillinthemost Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Rumor has it that Porter Moser had a really good nickname for Portland but since he left we don't get to figure out what it is. To exacerbate the unfortunate situation, Coach Majerus is lazy and cannot come up with a new nickname. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favorite being Bizzikens post about how Portland will get throttled by some ###### team like Loyola Maramount later in the season.
