I've been on a broadcast team.....it shocked me how different the LRC geek wish list is from the reality of TV. There's a tremendous difference between a sport and the broadcasting of that sport.
ESPN knows how to run a sports broadcast. Larry and Dwight are doing exactly what they are supposed to be doing as a condition of ESPN distributing this meet, meaning you can watch without a failing stream on a low- rent website.
And IMO, Larry and Dwight are having a good night at the mic.
