Apple Podcasts5GeorgeaBrooksUnited States7 months ago - Endless errors and player and coach mispronounciations
It’s really hard to think that these people, especially the man, has anything of value to add with his commentary when he doesn’t even know how to say the players names and is commenting on 2025 on “Sides” salary in the WNBA when she so not coaching! You only have to watch one game to hear their names properly pronounced - get it together man!
