    Bucks player intros: Pathetic and Hilarious!!!!

    O.K...chime in if you are with me on this.

    I am at home right now sitting down with a cold brew watching the Bucks game.  I turn the game on and they are starting the player/team intros. 

    First of all...they have the players and coaches walk through this flashing door that has red/green/white LED lights...to say the least, it looked pretty chinsy.  But wait, not only are they making them walk through, but they have to go through a f-ing catwalk!  The coaches went first and to a man, they all had looks of humiliation on their faces.  lol!

     Then to add insult to injury, they have common folk come down to introduce the players.  "Hi, my name is John Smith, I work as a toilet cleaner at Milwaukee Public Schools, I work hard for a living and so do the Bucks here is Ersan Illyasova!!!!"  They did this for every player. 

     Now am I the only one who felt this was totally contrived and full of sh*t?  It was sad to watch...has it really come to this?  The Bucks have to think of ways to try to convince people that they are working hard?!?!  I am sorry, but that sort of makes me not want to watch the Bucks.  It is an insult to my intelligence for them to come out and tell me that the team is going to work hard tonight. 

     Anyways, that was the sad part.  It made me realize how sh*tty the franchise actually has become.  The hilarious part came when some lady came up, introduced herself as the hardworking CEO of some company, and proceeded to introduce "Brad" Jennings.  I crap you not. I rewound the DVR twice to make sure , and she said Brad.  This is a franchise so pathetic that they cannot even get people to pronounce players names right!!!

     Things got even funnier when McTool and Pashke the Dounghnut man stated that it was the best introduction they have seen in the history of the NBA!  Holy smokes!  They even commented that it must have been tough for the commoners to learn how to pronounce the names of all those players.  That says it all right there.  We are the point where it is an accomplishment to pronounce somebody's name right during a presentation. 

     What a sad world we live in right now.

    I think you missed the entire point of it and it did suck

    MONEY, notice how they all plugged their business

    There was only one man that could stop Michael Jordan and that was
    Michael Jordan.
    The only 23

    "Damon Jones nicknamed former Milwaukee Bucks teammate Michael Redd “Bombs Over Baghdad” Sometimes he kills the enemy and sometimes he kills the civilians. And we [Bucks players] are the civilians”

    Sure...I don't dispute that, it still does not change how chinsy the catwalk looked, how embarressed all the coaches looked, how stupid the message was, (we work hard!!!!!) and how that moron lady called Brandon Jennings "Brad" Jennings.

    Yeah you could have at least got Brandon's name right in his first game at home...that was cheesy. They should have had kids do it...
    “My main goal is coming out here, making the playoffs, getting my teammates involved and trying to bring the winning back to Milwaukee,” Jennings said. “We have to win. I’m going to do my part and I’m going to try and make sure the team does their part.”

    After I finished reading this post I had to clean the urine out of my underwear cause I was laughing so hard.

    Well-done.

    I was listening to that on the radio, and it was truly dreadful. At least it generated some great unintentional comedy, though. Actually, those intros may have totally exploded the scale for unintentional comedy. I hope someone YouTubes that.

    It was just priceless when that lady says she's a hardworking CEO and then can't even get the first name of the team's best young player correct. What a total disaster that was.

    Poor Ted Davis was basically cringing when it was all over. You could tell he just wanted to rip the whole thing, but he just made a brief, semi-sarcastic comment and moved on before getting himself fired.

    BTW, I absoutely love Ted Davis. I don't mind McGlocklin and Paschke, but if I hated them like you do, I would definitely just listen to the radio. Ted Davis is that good. He almost makes you prefer not even watching the game. He's awesome.

    It was pathetic.  Everyone looked embarrassed including the fans in my general area.

    If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice

    I think there is room for improvement on the intro's.

    Are you talking to me?

    I totally agree with you on Davis...he is one of the best play by play guys in sports, period. I am particularly amazed at his skills when calling the game solo. The Bucks are lucky to have him, if they ever fired him, I don't think he would have any trouble finding work.
