Re: Archimedes Announcer Sayings...

This was classic, like usual....nothing better then the best from Dan!

What cracked me up is the people at the score table like David Kelly, Ben Lauer, Brandon Martus, Dave Ferreria, and Amanda Morrison trying to come up with these phrases and then celebrating everytime Dan used one...classic!

That seagull is as big as in IMAX

Inside joke from our team, it was our team volunteer who got him to say it.

Re: Archimedes Announcer Sayings...

Dan is a great announcer.

Some from Midwest:

"and the tater tots are released onto the field" (or something like that)

"...like squidword outta spogeebob"

"there go the sigmac@ts, there no technokittens"

Re: Archimedes Announcer Sayings...

As the announcer from Curie field I am a little jealous. I have had at other regionals and last year at Championships , people hand me words or phrases. This is so much fun and makes us think outside of the box. When you just concentrate on the game you tend to say the same things over and over. It is a tough job not to. I would like to see a new position made up as Chief Helper of Phrases (Chop) to make things more interesting. Any takers?

Hey Steve,

I'll be willing to be your CHOP... if you're up for the challenge.

i thought that, if nothing else, he kept the game interesting...i mean not that FIRST isnt by default but ill parallel it to dan rathers comments in the 2000 election...."votes are coming in sweeping like a hurricane through the south" and such....made it fun to listen to....my big thing was that, at first, he didnt seem confident like someone was making him be there....however he quickly became lively and full of fun things to say...as we have demonstrated....i remember the lemmings the best....definitely off the beaten path
