Quote from: arugulaGrady wouldn't have mentioned it. That would require paying attention.  Jason perhaps. Not Grady.

Grady is an excellent announcer.  Your comment was bad and you should feel bad.
Unfortunately, Grady spends too many words on random tangents and not enough on the game itself. He needs to track the action better.


Exactly. Good pipes. Seems like a nice guy but too often ignores the game.  I assume he would be different on radio.

I love him.  I will grant someone needs to take him aside and explain nobody gives a shit about the Binghamton Rangers.

Didn't Colin Greening '10 occasionally play for the Binghamton Senators?

I think he is capable of being a very good announcer, but at the moment, he simply doesn't pay enough attention to the game or keep up with the action. The Binghamton Rangers stuff is the worst of all, but there are many other tangents he goes on during the game which have little or nothing to do with the actual hockey being played. There needs to be a rule that he can only bring up these topics during a play stoppage and he must commentate on the action while play is underway. It's been pretty bad for several years now. I hope he can improve because he seems like a capable announcer and good guy.

He and Vannini have gotten a bit too chatty while the action is going on. He seems to stay better on task doing the women's games. The young lady from IC who's doing the color on the women's games has been quite good for a newbie.

Grady has deliberately moved towards being more chatty.  In his stint as the Cornell radio guy he was the second-best PBP man I have ever heard (Dean "Scooter" Vrooman) at any level.  I assume he went to the more chatty persona to appeal to the derpier AHL audience.

Vanini is remarkable.  His eyesight reminds me of Johnny Peirson on the Bruins' broadcasts.  he sees stuff in realtime I have a hard time seeing on replay when I'm looking for it.

My nitpick about Vanini is that he uses the word "great" way too many times, making it lose its impact.

your endless capacity to be made angry by nothing is, in a way, inspiring.

The Binghamton Rangers ceased to exist after 1997.  When Grady was there, they were the Binghamton Senators.  Now they're gone, too.

Sorry.

Someone needs to take him aside and explain nobody gives a shit about the Binghamton Senators.

I think we just did,  but I also appreciate Grady. We are fortunate to have both a radio and video pbp announcer.
