Re: Rank The Announcers

The Curie announcer was extremely enthusiastic, which is VERY GOOD for FIRST.

He was, however, just a little bit hyper by a mile.

Re: Rank The Announcers

Sir charles was so into it that when the newton alliance lost on einstien my mom said that she saw him EXTREMELY sad and agitated. He really did (for most people) connect with the crowd.

Re: Rank The Announcers

As the announcer on Currie I would like to add a little. Sir Charles as you call him, may have had little experience with FIRST but he had great heart. Before the event I challenged all Announcers and MC'S that Curie Field was going to be the #1 field in enthusiasm and competition. Charles was the most challenging of the group. I took 1 break and visited every field and brought the fact that the field that I was visiting was asleep. Charles got right on the mike to prove his field was energetic. I must admit that the field did respond well. Hedoes have a great presence and with more experience may become the 2nd best announcer that FIRST has. As you all know the # 1 announcer, The Voice of FIRST, is Blair.

I still believe that Curie IS #1. Except for the small point that we didn't win the Championship, it has yet to be proven that after 2 years with the #1 MC (Mark Leon) and I, that Curie is the most energetic and enthusiastic field at Championships.

Red face Re: Rank The Announcers

Sir Charles, who I heard had no experience with FIRST at all, knew only the terms "FIRST Frenzy" and "Raising the bar" at the beginning of Friday. He knew nothing of the game, repeated the same tired lines, and I was heavily annoyed within twenty seconds of hearing him.

By the finals on Saturday, he knew everything there was to know and was the greatest announcer for any sport I have ever heard in the history of my life. I led numerous cheers to show my appreciation for this exemplary and decidated enthusiast and was right there in the stands hugging him when Charles gave Sir Charles the aforementioned giant lifted squeeze.

Sir Charles, by becoming a lovely parody of himself and trying his very hardest on Friday to announce the game, then by Saturday proving his true worth as an announcer, and not just any announcer. He was capable of directing my attention on the field and had me screaming "It's over, baby! Let's get certified" after nearly every match.

"Welcome to the Georgia Dome, bay-bee. HELLO!" I can't speak of the other announcers, but Sir Charles was the greatest I have ever seen.
