Guys, I tend to look off the random asides in game threads about something silly (or funny) Scal says on the broadcast. And Mike Gorman is generally the pleasant storytelling bar patron, helping you enjoy your evening a bit more (unless he's making news by saying something rather out of character about Grant Williams).
But Drew Carter... I think we got some real talent there that we ought to talk about. Picked up a Derrick White like acquisition here, but he's currently got junior status under the top two. And I'm hoping we lock him up long term and next year get him a larger role. I'm not alone in that, though he of course has his haters too. He's an active Tweeter, too, gets into the replies and gives us behind-the-scenes clips. And apparently he's also doing Bruins play-by-play sometimes? Talk about your ideal team-player of a junior employee.

On League Pass, I've listened to some other announcing teams, and I'm not sure I've been entertained by any of them as much as I am by the Carter-Scal duo on Cs road games. Tonight he dubbed Luke Kornet "Lord of the Rims" off the top of his head, which had me rolling, as did this line, and honestly he comes up with 2 or 3 things every broadcast that crack me up. Has been trying out nicknames for Pritchard all year, usually tongue-in-cheek. The guy has a wonderfully active mind, keeps it professional but willing to push the envelope on pop culture references, meme references, NBA culture stuff, and is just really quick witted. I enjoy the hell out of listening to him.
Seems like most here generally concur?
