:lol:
Listened to him on the way home from our game today. Started crying on air and threw an absolute fit the 1st half today about the refs rough ridin' ku over. Feel so bad for them, officials always got it in for them every game.
-
Bob is pure entertainment....especially if Ku is losing. I can actually listen to him and get a good laugh (even if Ku is playing lights out)
Gurley on the other hand just sucks. He bitches and moans as if the college BB universe was against Ku. Somebody get him an extra dozen donuts during the game, so he wont be so damn cranky :ROFL:
-
I can only imagine what he and Piper must have been like when Smart got the flagrant called on Seldon (at least I think it was Seldon).
-
Any way to listen to Bob "OhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhThey'reGonnaCallitonKU!!!!!!!!!" Davis for free?
-
I wish our guys openly cheered and bitched during our broadcasts.

:nono:
Incredibly annoying. Bob Davis officiates the game as much as he calls it.
-
I wish our guys openly cheered and bitched during our broadcasts.
I do to. And I also wish they did the first name thing for our guys too.

I was listening to the KU game in the car yesterday and thought the same thing.
It's truly terrible "journalism," but wonderful entertainment.
Bob gets so pissed at calls that you miss parts of the game with his ongoing bitching and moaning.
-
Davis is rough ridin' terrible. Hope he chokes on Self's package and dies.
His calling of Royals games is impossible to listen to The rough ridin' idiot knows nothing about sports.
-
Bob Davis is great. I wish Wyatt was like that sometimes. Mitch certainly was/is to a certain extent. But having homer announcers is great.

I guess we agree to disagree. :cheers:
-
Bob Davis is the equivalent of George "Bob" Uecker from Major League, if George Uecker's character was supposed to be sad, pathetic and ignorant instead of whitty, cynical and hilarious.
Ku [Klux Klan] fans are generally delusional and irrational about their team so its a perfect fit.
-

Yep
-
Has Bob EVER admitted that KU legitimately commited a foul?

No. But, Gurley did several times as I listened yesterday, and Bob was just like "meh."
-

yes, absolutely.
-
At one point Gurley was actually bitching that Wiggens was "... not getting superstar calls!"
-
eff KU and everything associated with that shithole.
-
Cas does an amazing Bob Davis impersonation.
-

That was fantastic.
-
He's the absolute worst. The emotion gets in front of his calls. Party foul 101.
-
He was crazy butthurt yesterday. It was awesome radio

yes, absolutely.
Having a homer is one thing (I do not have a problem with how Wyatt comes across on the radio) but Davis is in a league by himself. I thought Bob and Max FUCKINGSTEEN were bad but Davis and whoever he is teamed with this week are worse!! Having Piper do a KSU game on TV is ALMOST as hard to listen to as Dave Armstrong.
-
haters hating
-
It was literally the best he's ever been. When Brown got mixed up in the KU huddle he lost his mind. Also, hinted that the KU players should have beat him up

I have no idea what any other Big 12 commentator sounds like and I can name only one out of market baseball play-by-play guys. I watch a ton of Tigers games on MLB.tv and those guys I barely even notice. The Boston guys are pretty funny too, but not memorable enough for me to remember. Listed below are super homer studs that have tons of haters on other teams.
Bball Studs:
Bob Davis
Hawk Harrelson

This is my favorite thing. Making fun of Bob Davis for always saying that is just my favorite thing.
-

That fight in the 1st half (I know... which one) I didn't know what happened for a good 7 minutes.
The best was when Marcus Smart flopped (I know... which one) Bob screamed "YOU GOTTA SEE THIS REPLAY". Dude, you are on the r a d i o
-
At his very best.

one of my faves. "the fans are irate"
-
The ou radio guys are kinda plain and professional like emaw. Gonzaga was mini ku, and complained about the refs constantly.
Yesterday had to be Bob's best game ever, considering just the content he had to work with. If the phog is any indication, then ku fans are absolutely melting down despite a win.
-
Missouri has the best play by play guy in the biz.
-
Anyone hear davis freakout about the review around 1:30 left and how that's not right. I dont know the rules that well, but cant they review calls the last 2 min? I felt like bob was so worked up something bad couldve happened.

I critique pbp guys daily. Which is funny, since I'm the wash up that "never made it". I just appreciate the art. You might not like him, but he's really fluid.

Georgia's longtime guy Larry Munson was the greatest homer that ever phoned home.

No idea how anyone could hate total stud Max Falkenstein. Love that guy.
-
The job of the pbp guy is to tell you what is going on in the game so you can picture it in your head. Bob Davis is a huge failure at this and therefore sucks.

Despise Nebraska.
But Greg Sharpe is really good. Wish we had him back. He's a good dude, a true EMAW. Greg got caught in the middle of the WIBW fiasco. He did some NCAA games for Westwood One a while back, and enjoyed his calls.
His call of Joe Hall rumbling downfield "get in there baby" is classic.
-
I miss Greg Sharpe and he is a hell of a guy. I am glad he landed on his feet at Nebraska though because he is talented enough to have a really good job, and that is a really good job.

Agreed. It also made Sharpe part of the "secret" recording of Pelini's off-air trashing of the Nub fanbase. Greg's limited comments on the recording seem to reflect that he really wished he wasn't present for Bo's rant.
Greg will be at NU longer than Bo.

Shocking response by our guy alpinist.

If I had $1 for every time he said, "Ohhhhh, they're gonna call it on Kirk," I'd be about $1000 richer.

I am sad that is seemingly the only bob davis call on youtube. maybe goEMAW could use some seed money to start a bob davis watch to upload the best clips to youtube?

Right? I couldn't believe I couldn't find an example. RIP Fatty. :frown:
-
One of my favorite Bob Davis isms is the quiet, as if falling away from the microphone "wowwwwwwwwwww" when bob doesn't like the call.
My favorite from yesterday was the other guy saying "Doesn't it just feel like we deserve a call here, Bob?"
-
I don't mind the homer-ism, I do mind the lack of actually describing what is happening on the field/court. And he was horrible at baseball. He honestly didn't know the rules.
OAHAHAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! THEY'RE CALLING IT ON KU?!?!?!?!?!?!?
^ That doesn't help me as a listened know what happened.
-
Bob is a crap basketball pbp guy. KU needs to realize that.
Maybe fanning could take a run at it, but I'd hate to see him go to the other side.
Guess that leaves Bob. :frown:
"They're calling it on KU???"

listened for 4 minutes yesterday on the way to the ball. No score update. Good effing grief. Giving a score every minute is broadcasting 101.

I finally had to look up the score on my phone. The way Bob was ranting about the officiating and Smart I figured ku must have been down 20, they were up 12 :Ugh:
-
So happy that bozo doesn't do Royals games any longer. Just the absolute worst.
-
I think Bob is at his best during football games. You don't need scores quite as often when listening to football, and it's always great hearing about some holding penalty called on KU that "didn't affect the play".
-
Just start mentioning how "Bad" Bob Davis is with any KU fan (Likely have no idea who Bob Davis even is) and...

While driving to a cats game this year I succinctly remember Bob describing a holding penalty as a "borderline disaster" on a 1st and 10 play in the redzone. I couldn't believe how defeated he was, they still had 3 more downs to go 20 yards.

Who's gonna take this one? :cheese:

Bob is funny in that when he's doing football he gets excited when the other team does something big, but he doesn't do that in basketball. Funny and weird I guess.

Bob not giving score updates, sucking air and excited crackling voice over the din of AFH is part of what makes him BITB. It is nearly impossible to not get in to the game unless it is a complete blowout and they are filling time with stories of JoJo and Danny Manning.

Who are these anecdotal KU fans you guys know? Anytime I hear Bob Davis mentioned it's always in a mocking manner.

Can't help :tsc: ing when I'm listening to Bob's hoops call. I feel that he knows nothing about football, whatsoever.
-
SWIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISH
-
I really don't care about opposing radio announcers. I probably happen to listen to KU basketball on the radio about 10 minutes total during a season and it doesn't bother me either way.
-
My favorite Bob Davis moments are when some pud out of conference opponent plays KU close. They inevitably become locks to win their league and potential Cindarellas in the tourney.
-
The pistols firing guys are kinda annoying.
-
SWIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESH
-
I know goEMAW's will be swayed against any tuck opinion, but I didn't see this one coming. The guy is awful.

I always mentally compare this to a soccer announcer going GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love it
-
just before tipoff tonight
"well, it says 115 on the decibel meter, but of course we have headphones on so we can't really tell you how loud it is"
-
Jesus, how loud was the video? They turn that up to 11?

Yeah but what's his face, their PbP guy used to get incredibly butthurt when K-State Football was dominating mu back in the 90's and early 00's.
Bob is also very funny in a droll, "why are we here" kind of way when ku is getting drilled in football, but he's a horrible football PbP guy.
-
Fun to listen to. Which is great in the TV era, because he's basically inconsequential.
SWEEEEEEEEIIIIIIIISHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Bob had an amazing first half. Started with "Iwun-dough", moved on to "Omar", then said "Southwell" - - and immediately corrected himself with "Spreewell"
-
Would absolutely love to watch that game with Bob Davis radio dubbed over the video. Someone please make it happen.
-

Bob is no Max Falkenstein. Not by a long shot. Max never denied being a homer, but he was so much better than Bob can ever hope to be.
-
Bob would be a great front row'r for us if we could convert him to a KSU fan. He's already got the booing and official hate down, no learning curve
-
How many dismayed "oh! they're gonna call it against kyuuuuuuuuu!"s were there? That's always my favorite Bob-ism.

When DJamer was called on that tie up, i was all bummed. Fran I felt was livid, mentally i was wondering what Bob was saying if he was our homer announcer.
-
There was a play that self was mad about and gurley was staring at him and when seff looked his way gg gave him this weird smile shrug . Strange interaction.

"being hand checked by Spradling"
"Spradling pushes Frankamp away from him"
"he had Gipson all over him"
-
Tough call as to who is the bigger homer, Matt Tait or Bob Davis. I think I'll with Tait, because everything he does seems like it comes right off the desk of the KU SID/Marketing Office.
-
Any good Bob stories? I have heard that he had a meltdown over oscar being "all over the court" and outside of the coaches box.
:ROFL:

I thought Self was going to explode on that double dribble no call.
Poor Bob, he has to sit through the debacle of football and so you know he and Greg are all locked and loaded for K-State in hoops, only to now see KU starting to lose regularly in Manhattan. Gotta be tough on those guys.
-
Dammit - just read this whole thread thinking it was about last night's game, then last year's players' names started popping up, then I saw my question from last year which is the same as my question for this year: Any good #ohhhhhhhthey'regoingtocallitagainstkuuuuuuuu moments? Because I would really like to have some audio of that.

I actually agree with KBP K-S-U here.
