        Cheers for that , IL. This will now be hours of searching this guy!

        You guys will have seen this from 10 months ago.......,I certainly didn't ......, but this is very good. I like the Sheila Hamp love in this. Very eye-opening. She really must've made a huge difference to the entire organisation.

        • The funny thing is about Dapper Dan Miller is they hired him because they thought the previous guy Mark Champion was too negative. In reality Mark Champion was just stating the facts. He still does the Pistons games and he is funny as hell especially when Rick Mahorn is on commentary.

            • I used to enjoy Mark Champion’s calls of Barry’s runs.

                • That was genuine LAUGH OUT LOUD of the day......., Saying "Holy Mackerel" too frequently. Superb by the previous guy.

                  If this is true......, I fear for Scotlands Sportsound commentator Michael Stewart, who says, "Cheezy Peeps" WAY too often.

                  "Lets have a look at the replay, awwwww cheezy peeps, how did he miss that!"

                    • There is a lot of squeaking. George Blaha was the best Pistons announcer. "Stops..pops...drops"

                        • The Pistons play by play men are a combined 154 years old with Champion (age 75) and George Blaha (age 79).

                          Basketball on the radio isn't boring but since the Pistons have been awful for the last 15 years, it has been bad. Rick Mahorn on commentary is classic. He is more of a comedy guy than giving much technical insight.

                          • Prime Blaha on the radio was something else. Haven’t listened to a Pistons game on radio in decades, but Champion was really good with the Lions so assume he’s the same with hoops.

                            Blaha nowadays is a hard listen though. Greats get to go out when they want to for the most part but it’s rough right now.

                                Makes you wonder what he'd be like if you made him a coffee at your house......, "He's into the kitchen, kettles on, coffee in the cup, he passes the sink, opens the fridge, cream in the cup, two sugars, steaming it up, pours the water, and its the caaaawwwfaaaay!!!"

                                Probably get quite annoying after a while and would have to say, "hey mate, ye wanna fkn stop that shit."
                                It would be cool as long as he stays in the kitchen, Knowwhati'msayin'...
