Zach Strief’s first Game (1 Viewer)

We were very spoiled. I can't comment on Strief as I haven't had the chance to listen to the radio broadcast but Joel Myers and Stinchcomb sound pretty polished for their first time out in the TV broadcast, imho. Hopefully Strief can get his sea legs under him. Play by play isn't easy.

I’ve been going back and forth between TV and radio for my audio. I like Myers and Stinch better.
 
Strief seems to be the 2nd fiddle here to Myers.

So will the routine be different come regular season?
 
It's all a wreck. And Garic on the halftime report....woof. Hard to believe they have someone worse than Deke in that role.

I think Geller is an upgrade as sideline reporter.
 
Made absolutely no sense to appoint Strief pbp, on radio no less.

That's a tough ask of a former player. That's why there have been so few to ever do it.

It's fine. It ain't Jim Henderson and never will be but no shame in that.

But Myers is the lead pbp here and and Strief the color guy.

Is that supposed to flip at some point?
 
We knew he was going to have to grow into this role, and I know that he will. Give him some time, guys.

What are you talking about? It’s myers and stinch on tv. They only do preseason games. Strief and Deuce are on the radio.
 
I really wanted Zach to be good, though I felt he was not the guy for the job. At this point he’s just not good. No disrespect to the man, he’s just not play-by-play savvy. I’m hoping he can get better.

Okay, great. Thanks for the clarification.

If Strief is the new pbp thought he might warm up with the pre-season games.

Otherwise, why is there a thread about his "first game". This isn't a first game as pbp.

He’ll get better over time hopefully. He’ll never have a great play by play voice like a Jim Henderson or Joel Myers though. He just doesn’t have it. The best radio voice on this broadcast is Steve Geller.
