It's completely wrecked this week and put us at the shutout alert. That was about as easy a compound word BR as you can have... I don't really care he went with a weird W call, it was just about calling O, which was fairly suggestable IMO if you don't waste the I. Just horrible.
Wha? I thought Carlos mispronounced the first word but then I was thinking, "Funerals"? Those are THINGS...and it just wasn't his night tonight.
And I actually thought the D would do it for him but noooooo... At least it was $30K he lost.
And it's getting ridiculous that even as we get a new audience they still don't care about the game.
