Box and Won Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Maybe we can all meet up and huddle around a radio somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Pelican Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 I just looked at Tulane's schedule and they don't show any TV either, just radio. I didn't think a D1 game goes by anymore without someone televising it. Dayton's schedule for their game with St. Mary's after our game shows TV on ESPNU.

But that seems like something that can be added on short notice. considering espn will already be there for the next 2, they could just live stream it.

Old school --- reminds me of the good ole days when I had to drive my car up the hill to get even poor radio reception at night just to listen to Bob and Earl on 1380 AM radio while hoping our neighbors don't come outside and think I am a creep or stalker in my car...

Go_Bills Posted December 4, 2019 Author Share Posted December 4, 2019 As of right now, this game isn't on TV or ESPN+... I will keep checking if that changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in the early 90s I had to do that when I living in Johnson City, TN. Going up to the top the mountain to pick up KMOX. It would get so cold. So every 5 minutes you have to turn on the car to run the heater. It was Earle and Rammer back then. I do recall Ron Jacober doing it with Jay Randolph back in the early 70s.

GoSluBills Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 If it does get picked up by ESPN+, anyone know if the Fieldhouse is able to stream it? The lady and I were planning on going to the women’s game at 2 and were thinking of catching the men’s game there beforehand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprised to hear about Jacober and Randolph. Most likely Jack Buck did some games -- what did he NOT do? But who was the voice of the Bills before Ramsey? and Earl?

The womens NCAA soccer stream was ROUGH. GoSluBills likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But 2 huge national celebrities and HOF’ers like Buck and Carey - makes me ask, why no picture of them at Chaifetz? Then again, why no pictures anywhere of the long history and tradition of the Bills over the years? Maybe areas along the sterile walls of Chaifetz and/or on slubillikens.com of: the Billiken and its evolution over the years? the players and uniforms over the years? the different conference affiliations over the years? the different venues over the years?

Back in the early 50's when I became a Billiken fan, Harry Caray did the away games by ticker tape with simulated crowd noise and made them exciting at least for someone my age. At least for one season, the broadcast team consisted of Harry Caray, Jack Buck, and Joe Garagiola. I went to every home game when I was in school in the early 60's, so I did not pay attention to who did the broadcasts, but it is likely that Harry was still involved. I don't remember Blattner doing the games, so he may have done them after I left St. Louis in 1964. If he preceded Harry Caray as a Billiken announcer, then it would have had to have been in the late 1940's.

Jack Buck did a few I seem to recall. Randolph was a good announcer, but nothing like the Rammer. I never heard him get too excited by anything good or bad. And never heard him say "Bang! He got it" or "Jam Time!". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
