Maybe if you spelled Webber correctly, then recalled Michigan Basketball in the 2000s.

I know it was partisan, but it was nice to just feel like the announcers weren't openly hoping we'd lose for once

I forgot about it. I'm kicking myself for sitting through two hours of Jim Nantz when this was available...

Since the first half didn’t go our way, I decided to make a change and tune into the Michigan broadcast for the second half and I seemed to like that much better! Michigan homer channel all the way for me with the Natty Game!
It needs to be capitalized. Also, 'natty' doesn't mean 'well dressed', it's 'nattily'; I don't know about the 'watery beer-like substance' reference either, did you mean 'nasty'?
He was referring to Natural Light Beer, which people call Natty Light, but I don't because I don't drink it :)

A person is dressed nattily if he is wearing natty clothing. Adjective / adverb. :)
Noted! I don't think I ever used "Natty" in that sense before, so I don't know why I did last night! However, had I said "National" it would have been followed by "Championship" game, or "Title" game, so it saved me more than just the one syllable ;)
I will try to refrain from using slang in the future to sound more proper :)
Go Blue and Happy Easter!
We all make mistakes from time to time. Consider yourself forgiven. ;)
Happy Easter to you as well, and Go Blue! These next 30+ hours are going to take forever... :)

I switched to it in the second half. I'm glad I did. Like a breath of fresh air.

I am going to be honest here - I did not even realize that there was a pro-Michigan feed until it came up as a promotion on the national broadcast on TBS. Part of that is me latching onto the key points like which channel we're going to be on and not doing much further research, but I would be interested to know how it went overall.

I preferred the national broadcast for the balanced approach.

I started muting the TV at every block of commercials mid way thru the 2nd. Sitting in silence brough me off the ledge. Seemed to calm and refocus the team, too, so I'll take credit...

I would like a crowd-noise only option. This would be very popular and could save the networks some cash by cutting announcer salaries. They have been horrid all tourney.
I'd use that for every game. Don't mind the occasional stat flashed across the bottom of the screen, but that's really all I need/want.
If it was an option it would cost the networks more.
I remember in my youth watching the NFL experiment with the Miami NYJ game where there was no announcers. It was a tough watch. Depending on your age you may not remember this.

Here is an article about it.

Feely can still kick the threes.
Go Blue.
That the world has come to this: Sports fans who have this phobia that the media is "out to get their team" AS IF the media cares about your team enough to actually have any feelings about them. AND it's very hard to believe the media is out to get Michigan--witha squeaky-clean coach and reputation. Just pathetic that Michigan fans believe in some sort of conspiracy--except that, again, it is a worls of self indulging babies who need echo chambers from which to clamor for self verification and validation.
And as one who thought that the game would be tilted towards Loyola to get Gramma Tooite all into Monday night, I felt the national broadcast was fine. I did tune into the Michigan team cast on TBS, though, and thought WOW these guys are gooood.
I rather enjoyed the telecast from the Michigan perspective--but really ONLY because they were very good at doing the boradcast. To be honest, except for some various comments where their bias showed--I would not have thought they were Micdhigan fans at all.
I loved it, I didnt turn on the Loyola Teamcast or the other feed either. I did like how they were able to be homers and didnt have to hide it.
I loved the TNT Michigan broadcast. I posted about it on the game thread, but I think the post was back on page 1 so most people missed the post. I didn't watch the TBS feed at all.
The Michigan fan feed had good announcers and they were openly rooting for Michigan. They cheered when we scored and worried when we didn't. I'm definitely using that feed for Monday also.
