3. NEITHER DOES HARUKA
And, she literally CAN'T do it, even when I coax her. Neither can Donald Trump.

Maybe she's the Donald's lovechild.

5. He's also an obnoxious republican wingnut asshole.
And he feels compelled to make snarky political comments in the middle of football games. :puke:

8. Yeah, I know
Way back in the day, he covered ARM WRESTLING.

Miracle on Ice MADE him. He has no talent, he was just lucky enough to be calling that particular game.

10. He's one of the best baseball announcers I've ever heard
And that goes back to 1965 — or, 1974, actually, when he was with a San Francisco station calling the Giants.

:shrug:

Actual overheard conversation when I was at the London Zoo, between a Londoner and his son:

"Now son, that's an 'edge'og over there. It's actually made up of two words: 'edge and 'og. Bowf of 'em start wif an haitch.

12. I've known a few people who couldn't pronounce the H at the beginning of a word
and it annoys me especially because that means they can't even say my damn name right.
