New KPAX TV Announcers for Griz

My first year at Montana I lived in Miller Hall with pretty much the entire basketball team and a good number of football players. I'd run into Marty about twice a week heading out the north entrance as he was coming back to the dorm. Someone asked me once if I had ever heard Marty speak, and I thought about it a moment. I didn't ever have a conversation, I'd say hello and he would grunt or mumble a response with a smirk on his face. This person asking me the question said, if you didn't know better, you'd swear Marty was drunk to hear him speak. After two years in the booth, any of you who had never heard him before, as well as those who know him well, might equally concur with that assessment. Especially the "above the tits" call.
My dead mother gives better analysis than Marty Morninhweg.
 
What exactly qualifies as a "special game" ? Can't wait to see the responses for this one...!
To me it would be the games where Marty knew both coaches and analysists of both teams and knew the historical backgrounds of both teams playing FB. It would be fun to listen to his guesses on what each team's play calling would be and why.
 
Jordan Tripp may surprise us. I've never met the man, but he could have a golden sense of humor. Guess we'll see how the season turns out. Once he gets that 'deer in the headlights' look out of the way, and gets his tongue lubricated, he might just come out with his own 'above the tits' moment(s).(y)
 
At least I have the credentials to back up what I say.
