The Indy announcers sounded like Little League Baseball announcers. Very
little entertainment value. They were in shock that the Celts came back. In
a very distasteful way early in the 1st explained Baker was playing in a
*sober* condition. Kind of a cold remark. I'm sooo glad we beat these
yahoos. Their definitely spending too much time in the corn silos.........

once when Battie made one of his 15-footers, said something about that being
way out of his range. He clearly thought Battie was a total scrub.

Buckner was the color guy. He was far less offensive than the play-by-play
"talent."
