Dunno about fandom but her job was calling preseason for the 9ers

As opposed to those fake women like Jerhawk.

We'll see how she does. I miss Huard color commentating these games personally. I understand she's the announcer, just throwing my 2 cents out there

You do realize the person she is replacing wasn't a Seahawks fan either?

 

[SantaClaraHawk]

I don’t need her to be a 12, but play by play is pretty important technically. She’s called games in different sports well, so hope that continues.

Sorry but NFL announcing is not suited for a female voice. Most people think it, most are too afraid to admit it

And then there's those like me that have never given it even a passing thought until now.

Who cares? Not me. I care about competency. Nothing more, nothing less. I can't really pass judgement until I see her work. If she can enlighten me about things that I am unaware of then I will be impressed. It will reflect on the amount of access that she has which is probably the best measuring stick for that position. I can't imagine Pete being anything other than accommodating in that respect. It is in his inherent nature.

Whatever. This outdated POV can go to bed. If she is good, who cares?

Let's judge her on her merits, not her gender. I, for one, couldn't disagree more. Absolutely no reason a woman couldn't do this job. But it's a tough job--I can't stand most men who do it, either. I love Al Michaels, but there's only one Al.

Al Michaels isn't even Al Michaels any more. Very few of the big name announcers are what I would consider "good". More so than anything they are iconic.

She has a ton of experience calling games of all different sports, the handful of games I have heard her call she did a great job.

In today's world you don't know her gender lol

I've heard her call some Philadelphia 76ers games. She has kind of an annoying voice. Meh. It's just preseason, who really cares.

Most people don't care. I've heard plenty of woman do play by play in multiple sports and you stop noticing once the novelty wears off and realize play by play announcing requires a lot more than playing experience to be good at.

I’ve never heard a woman call play by play, but I’m glad there is one.

If you want to learn a little more about her and her some of her play-by-play for the 76ers.

Care to post some data, with links to your references, to support your claim?

Have you never watched women's sports on TV? Its not much different calling a football game.
