I noticed it earlier this year. Is that an ATT Center thing or is it going on across the nba?
I don't hate it, just don't get the why and how it started

I think the PA guy, Jonathan Sanford started it. I’ve chatted with him on FB and twitter. He’s a really good dude.
There just reporting Buford drinking on the job.
Reflection of creativity level of SA tbh...slightly worse than Go Spurs Go

Sounds like an interesting drinking game! Every time your team goes to the line...Quote:

Brock's replacement when he got cancer in 2009 was a 2/10
The 2013 guy was a 2/10
Sanford is a 3/10 at best.
Yeah, I noticed this earlier this year at a game.. I seemed to be the only person who didn't give a shit about saying it
it's stupid and annoying.
Another clear example of someone in the Spurs Org. collecting paychecks he doesn't deserve. I wonder which staff member he is related to/friends with.
I miss Stan kelly “manuuuuu!!!” He still does Utsa football games so I’m not sure why the spurs let him go
Stan Kelly was iconic but that warbly nasally voice was grating.Quote:

I don't really get it. I find it annoying. It takes time out of heckling.
Always hated this!!Quote:

Here come the Spurs!Quote:

MANUUUUUUUUU! GINOBILIIIIIIIIIII!
Childhood was the greatest... unfortunately my life was built at the top of a slope. Adulthood is all about watching this team get worse and worse and Poop turning from GOAT coach to stupid political crap robot.
I regret that Kelly couldn't have been our PA announcer for "5" though.
Man I can still hear each and every one of those in my memories.Quote:

And please, for the sake of all that is good in this world, don't get me started on the retards who show up to say "GO SPURS GO" at the top of their lungs during the FOX Sports wrap up show. It is beyond me how anyone's life can be so pathetic as to enjoy standing in the vicinity of a camera for so long, AFTER A GAME, cell phones pressed to their ear, just to be on TV. Have you seen these people? The majority look like a mix of overweight, Mexican and Chinese inbred mutts, spilling out of their Spurs chirts. There, I said it and I feel better now. By all means, carry on.
Other than the stellar technical play of the team over the past two decades, they haven't offered much in the way of entertainment, meaning you'd do just as well to watch on TV. Fortunately for me I only care about the game, couldn't care less about the peripherals.
Laker/GSW fans are just as bad and Mexican and fat but they are hairier, sweatier and (unfortunately) tend to wear less clothing.Quote:

It's like the Spurs are TRYING to play up to the long running "boring" schtick. You would think their play style the past couple of years would have been enough...
Damn they even shipping out the "two shots" guy..
