To the LRC Community,
We received some terrible news today at the coaches meeting. Larry Rawson will be doing the commentating on tomorrow's broadcast. As a result, we are now guaranteed to have the sport of xc and running in general explained on the telecast.
Note to Larry: The only people watching a broadcast live at 12 noon on a Monday are fans of the sport. Please don't talk about leg turnover or anything stupid.
Lewis Johnson is also commentating. Don't get me wrong, I actually think Lewis deserves to be a professional sportscaster in contrast to Larry, but Lewis is terrible in the booth doing color or play by play.
He's better at trackside interviews (and should replace that neumeir guy on NBC who knows nothing). Like a pretty reporter at NFL games, Lewis knows enough for interviews which he is good at (and which I've seen him do for the NBA as well) But Lewis doesn't really understand distance running and therefore shouldn't ever by one of the main announcers.
