Re: Rank The Announcers
In Arizona Blair and Dan Green paired together to create one awesome combo of MC/Announcer. I still think Blaire is possibly one of the coolest people in FIRST.
As for the Newton field. Normally, I am not the type of person to love high-energy announcers at competitions, especially those doing play by play. I've always kind of liked them being as simple as possible. However, the announcer on Newton wowed me. If FIRST is trying to get more people in the stands at the competitions and therefore spread the word of FIRST, this guy will be a HUGE help in accomplishing these goals. Before every match, I got a little smile on my face because he announced "Team 234 Cyber Blue all the way from Indianapolis...what's up Nap-Town?!" I loved it...absolutely hilarious.
I had the pleasure of personally meeting Dave at FIRST HQ last year. He's a great guy and one of the best sources of Inspiration within FIRST. As far as an MC...he knows more about FIRST teams than any announcer I have ever heard in FIRST. It seemed like every match of the finals he knew more and more about each team. He's simply outstanding.
