Michigan Homer Feed on TNT
Not sure what feed you watched but it was a lot of fun to watch the pro-Michigan feed on TNT. It was great that when things were bad they kept things positive. I didn’t tune into the Loyola feed but I think it was a cool format for the game.
*Edit* one thing I forgot to mention is that I felt it said something about our national status that our channel was TNT and Loyola was on TruTV
Had to watch the game down here in Mexico, and it was actually on ESPN which was nice. The shitty part was that it was Sean McDonough and Dick Vitale. No mas, por favor.
Can’t believe these aren’t on CBS

-after a couple of minutes I was thinking- gee the Michigan guys are really going out of their way to NOT be biased, what's wrong with them- an interview with Jerry Harkness? Then I changed back to TBS at the precise time the tide turned in our favor so I never did make it to the Michigan channel. Now, what to do on Monday?
They mentioned Sister Jean but didn’t show her. Or if they did, I missed it. Other than the incongruity of a broadcaster saying “we,” I didn’t think the coverage was too biased, but that may come from my impression that the national feed announcers love to talk up whatever team Michigan plays against. Brian Griese seems to be able to call things neutrally without being a homer; why can’t others?
I thought I saw a clip of her being wheeled away before the end of the game. I don't remember when they actually showed it.
I liked it. It seemed...I don't know, a little less performative than the standard broadcast? I'm a curmudgeon and kind of hate human interest stories, so just having that aspect minimized was a huge plus for me.
