Mario Chalmers Is Obviously Still A Rookie

Found January 29, 2009 on Awful Announcing Inactive:
PLAYERS: Eric Snow,  Mario Chalmers,  Gary Payton
TEAMS: Miami Heat,  Washington Wizards

Miami Heat Rookie, Mario Chalmers, has had a solid first season in the NBA, but he still has a lot to learn. Like the difference between a radio and TV interview. The guard was on NBA TV the other night, and after a question from Eric Snow, Chalmers decided to stick his head between his legs....literally. Via NESW....



Too funny. Now let's talk about Eric Snow. I hated the guy as a player because he killed the Wizards, and I hate him as an analyst. Does anyone ever teach these guys to put some energy out there when they talk? You can't understand a word that Gary Payton is saying, but at least he sounds like he's enjoying himself.
