and the amazing people at
@commvt
in Blacksburg. Incredible program with great people that are going to big places. Looking forward to coming back for football in the fall!

@BristolBluesCT
! Incredibly honored and excited to call games in
@TheNECBL
watching the best college players in the country.
Opening Night is June 7th and I'll join the team June 8th in Holyoke!
Kevin was nice enough to give me some of his time a few years back, can’t tell you how much I learned from that conversation. Being a team’s announcer should not require you to whitewash your broadcast. Kevin did his job, simple as that.
Here's the clip of Kevin Brown's pregame comments on the Orioles' recent record against the Rays ahead of a series finale on July 23. Sources tell AA these comments led to Brown's current indefinite suspension from Orioles' broadcasts.
After tonight’s game,
@williebloom
complimented
@BobbyHurley11
on the addition of 5-star Jayden Quaintance
Bloomquist said he would love to follow Hurley in actively marketing NIL to potential funders
“I just need to know who to get in front of”

@espn
. Incredibly great full for the opportunity and for the great people that made this happen!
He then left the radio crew, came down to the Omaha Room and gave us 25 minutes of his time for a press conference (covered a huge range of topics too)… I challenge you to find a more media friendly coach than
@williebloom
A man of the people. Couldn’t get the radio call to connect from the clubhouse so Willie made the trek to the press box to get on the

postgame show!
So thrilled to officially announce that I’m headed to Williamsport for the 5th time this August.. only catch is that this time it will be a business trip, working for

Building on this a bit (Now that there's actual photographic evidence), shoutout to
@flhsgbball
for the incredible effort they put in to honor me on Senior Night. The six players deserve it much more, but it absolutely made my day to be honored by such a great group
#ctgb
As a broadcaster, I don't do it for the thank you, and if you do you should probably find another profession, but I will say it makes my day any time a coach or athlete or parent says "Thank you" or "Great job"

A broadcaster's job first and foremost is to convey the action and story of the game to the listener/viewer. Not talking about a rare event as it's happening does a disservice to the people that pay your bills
Probably the hardest tweet I've ever had to compose... Jake was a tremendous young man who I had the pleasure of knowing since early middle school. Thoughts and prayers are with Jake's family, friends and everyone in the Ludlowe community.
We at FSN are absolutely heartbroken to ear about the passing of Ludlowe student and member of
