ExtremeDog	Football Season Ticket Radio Commercial		Lead	[-]
Posts: 2237 06/22/08 02:12 PM Eternal Pessimist	Tags : None I heard our radio ad today for 2008 football season tickets. The first 20 seconds of the commercial contains Dave Neal's voice giving the play by play description of Derek Pegues' punt return for a touchdown vs Ole Miss. Here's my question: Why is it the voice of Dave Rowe and not Jack Cristil? Certainly, there has to be a logical explanation for this. Anyone know? Last Edited By: ExtremeDog 06/22/08 02:29 PM.

Posts: 859 06/22/08 02:46 PM Fan of Jordan Not Michael but Todd	Did you hear Jack's "call" of the play? Not very good or inspiring enough for a commercial. Jack's call Dave's call edit: Jack's call was a little better than I remembered. But I did hear the call live and was surprised when Jack called out the yardage because he did not seem excited.

Posts: 4552 06/22/08 02:48 PM	...but the quality of Jack's broadcasts has been WAY off. He calls games like he's having trouble seeing the action for himself. Maybe he needs glasses (seriously...because his basketball calls are as good as ever and he's a lot closer to the action there). He also sounds emotionally detached from the team. I think we're not at the light-a-fire-under-the-AD stage about Jack yet. But it would be nice if he'd take care of his vision problem if that's what his problem is, start caring again, or kindly step aside with dignity.

Go back and watch him come off the edge and make the punter get it off a split second before he wanted to. This caused the line drive punt directly to Pegues instead of nearer the sideline where he wanted it to go. Thank you Jamayel. Edited to add....Smith also made the tackle on the play.

Posts: 241 06/23/08 10:41 AM	This must be a holdover habit from the Jackie days when we had so many good plays called back because of a personal foul about 30 yards away from the play

Posts: 625 06/23/08 11:28 AM	The energy level in Cristil's calls has decreased dramatically in the past 2-3 years. I'm not saying he should step down, but I don't think we will ever see the sort of calls we getting 10 years ago -- the dude's in his 80's.

Also was told he fell 3-4 times during basketball season at the Hump. I can see the headlines now.....Long time broadcaster Jack Cristil was killed today as he fell from the press box as Miss. State defeated the Auburn Tigers 24-17. Seems Cristil was leaning out the window of the press box trying to get a better view of the action when he lost his balance and tumbled head first out of the press box window, as told by sidekick Jim Ellis. In his professional demeanor, Ellis didn't miss a beat as he followed up Cristil's yelling "Woah, shiiiiiiiiiiittttt!!!!" with "you're right Jack, that was some hit, wasn't it". Ellis finished the broadcast explaining to listeners that Cristil was getting a "head start" to the locker room for interviews.

I'm not saying he should step down, but I don't think we will ever see the sort of calls we getting 10 years ago -- the dude's in his 80's. I wouldn't say that. Usually when you hear a radio call of a big kick return/punt return, the radio guy mentions "no flags". When you're listening on the radio, you obviously can't see the field, and flags are so common on returns, that it's almost a necessity that the play by play guy mention the lack of flags on the play. I know that whenever I'm listening to a game, and I hear a big kick return, "were there any flags?" is one of the first things that comes to mind for me.

Posts: 7963 06/23/08 08:34 PM	I've thought for years that on 4th and more than 5, you should rush 10 for the punt block and have your returner either fair catch the ball or catch it and try to get just a few yards. For every long punt return, there are several blocks in the back. But they guys are right about Cristil. Listening to him the last few years has been kind of sad. He's just a shadow of the announcer he once was. And his call on the Pegues punt return was pretty boring, especially considering the circumstances. That call sounded like one you'd make if the return was against SE Louisiana and we were already up 40 points and had already run a kick back for a TD. That said, I'm in favor of keeping him just as long as he wants to keep doing it.

I think it clicked in his head like it did for the rest of us - holy shit - we might have a winning season. http://www.sixpackspeak.com/Kentucky07_Ducre.mp3 I support the two most frustrating teams in America: The New Orleans Saints and the Mississippi State Bulldogs.

Posts: 7964 06/23/08 10:02 PM	I think that when the great ones lose it, it's not that they can't still be as good as they were before, it's that they can't do it consistently like they could before. I first noticed this at the end of Michael Jordan's career. He could still go off for 50+ on any given night. But he'd just as often only have 10-12.

Posts: 29 06/24/08 08:29 AM	I think that I was first taken to a state game in the early 80s as a child and get apathetic sometimes myself. The man has been to every state football game for over 50 years. I heard him on a national show a year or two ago and they pointed out that he has never missed a single game during that period. If I had watched that many state football games in person and seen first hand our ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, I know I would be tempted to mail it in. I could just as easily see Harry Doyle doing the State broadcast.
