I love both of these men, in a very heterosexual way. I wish Johnson was my uncle, and Raftrey was my Grandfather (one of those is genetically possible, the other is not.)
Raftrey has been absolutely on FIRE this tournament. Everything he's said has been golden. Johnson has really had some dull games, so he hasn't had his chance.
Do you hate them both? love one? hate the other?
I know a lot of people could simply do without announcers altogether, and I definitely can relate to that. But, these guys are awesome.

You should be flogged by a wet spaghetti noodle for not mentioning the "man to man" defense by Raftery.

True, that's the best. I'm not sure if he's broken it out this March yet, I've missed the start of almost every game he calls.

A little lingerie on the deck!
Raftery. He's the legend.
Johnson's on his way and may get there one day.

While I think everyone understood the point he was going for, my friends and I got a lot of laughs when Raftery said "Well, Verne....they only lost on the scoreboard" referring to Robert Morris after the 'Nova game.

Love them both. I'd probably take Gus if I had to choose though.

Raftery is better throughout the game. Give me Johnson for the last 2 minutes though.
