Beth Mowens Calling Our Game

If you happen to have a DVR, you can pause the play then synch up with radio/internet broadcast...might save you $70.
I don't know why everyone has a problem with this Biff Mowins guy. I thought he did a great job announcing.
My only problem with the TV broadcast was when they weren't talking about our game. They would talk about national games during rather important moments. The Beth lady is fine to me otherwise.
That entire crew stinks. They came back from commercial after a play had run. They talked over game action, ignored the refs when they made a call--talking over them. I could almost tolerate her if they'd just call the freaking game and stop treating our game as it if is unimportant.
Her voice is terrible - even my wife was complaining.
Generally the radio broadcast is ahead of the video broadcast, so you have to delay the radio for syncing.
Is her voice really that much worse than half the commentators? I think most of them are hard to listen to. Beth Mowins isn't special in that regard. I thought she did a decent job, way better than some I have heard.
Maybe we should be happy that a woman is finally doing the commentary. It's about time. My wife even noticed there was a women commentator and sat down to watch for a while. I think it's a good thing.
@greshamdisco To bring up whether she is a lesbian or not is out of bounds. It's not about being "woke", it's just about being decent.
I’m pretty positive she said Kirby Swift one time.
I think I heard that too. She should be fired immediately. Along with the commentator I heard last year say Ricardo Blankenship. As well as the op who can't spell Mowins' name correctly. Unacceptable.
There is a petition that has started asking ESPN to stop having Beth call football games and maybe have her call WNBA games or something. It’s a change.org petition.

Can we all agree Munson is gone! I was lucky enough that I was able too start listening to him in the late 70s. Georgia football will never be the same without him. So as much as I hate it we move on. For us who can’t go to games anymore at least there all on TV now. So personal I would be ok if Ray Charles was calling the game!
I’m no fan of either. They are both hard workers but have zero depth in the content of our sport. I’m fine with never having to listening for the rest of the year.

It's unbelievable how threatened you are by a woman calling football games. Any petitions for pulling men you find irritating from calling games? Maybe you can push for Gary Danielson to call WNBA games too. Let's go for it!
Stingray - great idea. Danielson in the WNBA. Perfect place for him since I don’t watch it.
