There are plenty of things I regret from college but blindly hating on female announcers (not sideline hotties like Pam Oliver of course) when they broke onto the scene and started getting these gigs is one of them.  I wasn't used to hearing a lady do PBP and it was dumb, sexist, and immature.

Now that I am used to a lady calling games I just judge them on content.  They often have to carry a weak partner like Mowins did on Saturday.  For example I couldn't stand Jess Mendoza next to Boone.  He was worse than her being so boring and bland and offering nothing I couldn't have been more shocked that someone thought it was a good idea to make him manager of a big market team.  Next to A Rod who I hated as a player but really like as a broadcaster I think she is excellent and all of a sudden love the Sunday Night Baseball team.

Mowins was great I thought on Saturday.  (Going to SU and watching games with pals most of whom are now sports media figures the critiquing of broadcasters was pretty relentless again I wish I wasn't an idiot automatically hating whenever I heard a female on the call.)
