Pam Ward Thinks Michigan State Should Spike The Ball On 4th Down
Pam Ward Is Giving Emmitt Smith A Run For His Money
There really isn't any nice way to say this. Pam Ward sucks at her job as a college sports announcer on ESPN, plain and simple. It has nothing to do with her being a woman, because there are plenty of awful male announcers and color guys (see Smith, Emmitt).

I understand that being an announcer is tough, since you're on the air live and what not, so even the best people out there make mistakes. But Ward, man, she just consistently screws up so royally that you wonder how she still has a job. She's like the Manny Ramirez of announcing, constantly forgetting how many outs there are. Saturday provided the perfect example, as she delivered this classic line in the tense final moments of Michigan State's huge win over Wisconsin.



Whoops. Good thing Michigan St. didn't listen to Pam. Some other classic lines from that game on Saturday.

"A 48-yard return...correction, 69 yards."
"He leads the countries in rushing."

And it's not just football where she loses her brain. There's basketball too. Keep in mind the score is tied in this next clip.




And last but not least, from the department of redundancy department, some redundancy.

 

Hey, it's a tough job. But seriously, it's not that tough.

She played field hockey at Maryland, that's what qualified her to do commentary for college football.

Normally, this is where I'd say that she's just another female broadcaster who got hired solely based on her looks, but....

Sometimes, it's just nice to know you're not alone in your pain. ;) As soon as I hear her voice, dribbling from my television speakers like slobber from a novocain induced face stupor, I'm on the remote like Fulmer on a chicken wing!

I'm not even sure she could call field hockey correctly. "This game is over! By which I mean we're going to overtime."

It just takes one to ruin it for all of us. If you're going to hire brainless women, at least pick a blonde with a ton of clevage to make us women look good in some way, shape or form.  She is just killing us on every possible level.
