February 17, 200521 yr He is great. I love listening to his voice--especially when he does the cool introductions and features. He has to be one of the best announcers in basketball. I can't believe we kept him this long--with all our bad luck concerning broadcasters in South Florida.
February 17, 200521 yr Eric Reid is the BEST. I am in complete agreement that he is one of the best in the biz. Now only if we can get the Doc back in the Heat house all will be good. Fiorentino :thumbdown although I am getting use to him.
February 17, 200521 yr Eric Reid and Dr. Jack for life. 688155[/snapback] I agree, they were great together. Eric Reid announces FIU Football games when they are televised and he does a great job there too.
February 17, 200521 yr Did anyone hear Dr. Jack announcing the Heat game on Sunday? I loved him when he was here, but he seems to be getting a little old. He gave the wrong score many times, said the wrong team was in the lead more than once, and kept saying Rasual Butler came from La Salle HIGH SCHOOL.

I remember a few times he kept messing up on the names. But it's ok. Just hearing is voice is golden. He has to be early 70's, but he really looks older than he actually is Anyway, I'll take 100 year-old Jack anyday!
February 17, 200521 yr a 100-year-old dr. jack ramsey with pronounced senility, wearing depends undergarments, and hooked up to an oxygen tank >>>> a (regrettably) healthy tony "giggles" fiorentino
February 17, 200521 yr Personally I like Fiorentino a lot. He's not great or anything, but the type of comments he says are unintentionally funny at times, thus making the game enjoyable,. He is a good contrast with Reid, who is among the best, in my opinion.

It made me furious.
