BTN fail
Okay, so I missed the game b/c I was at work. I checked the TV listings when I got home and, to my pleasant surprise (or so I thought), I saw that the BTN was replaying the game. Then the replay didn't start on time, and when it did start, they skipped through the game b/c of "time constraints"...AND THEN THEY SHOWED THEIR ENTIRE SHIT-ASS HALFTIME SHOW?!? WTF?!?

Dude, I didn't see either the game or the halftime show, but damn i can imagine how sweet that halftime show was!

annarbor.com posted the Iowa halftime show.
I got a feeling that tonight's gonna be a good night=FAIL

Hmm, why did I just watch the video?
I saw cheerleaders and thought ...maybe ...just maybe this would be worth watching.
But, no nasty falls, no boobs, ugh. How sad.

The announcers yesterday were unwatchable. Show some excitement, some energy, show something!

"Manny Sims" or was I imagining that.

Iowa sucks.

This is pretty common with re-airs in all sports. Networks are really dumb about this. If you watch a hockey re-air on a Fox Sports network sometimes they will cut out half the goals because of "time constraints".

Record the game live and avoid this kind of bullshit. As an added bonus, you can fast forward through the queso commercials.
Speaking of which, I need to get mine working again.

...did you break your queso commercials?

The fact that the BTN is basically a giant cash machine has always confused me. I'm just thankful that Michigan football normally makes it onto ABC/ESPN.
I remember watching a few BTN Football games where the announced kept calling us the "Wolves"* and couldn't pronounce half the names of our players.
*I'm pretty sure he knew we were the Wolverines, he just thought it was clever to truncate the name down to Wolves. All it did was increase my urge to kill.

I was going to give those announcers last night an old fashioned ass kicking if I heard them use the phrase "old fashioned 3 point play" one more time. I was only able to watch the 2nd half and they used it at least 5 or 6 times.

I was actually turning back and forth (I'm an Olympic junkie), and it seemed EVERY time I turned back to BTN, I heard that phrase. It's clever exactly once, old the second time, and unbearable beyond that.

The Good Guys go up by 4 with about 4 seconds left in OT, and the one idiot announcer passionately points out how Iowa can come down, hit a 3, and its a whole different game. I think Stupid thought Iowa was only down 3. And with 4 seconds left. Those guys are awful.

5 with 4 seconds to go

I used to upload a bunch at mgovideo but I cannot capture to my pc anymore.

Same thing happened when I watched the replay at my relatives house for the CampRandal Classic. They'd skip fwd in the action only to show them repairing the goal crease in from of Hogan for 4 minutes straight.
