bring Fish back, his replacement is a bozo..jmo

I agree about the announcer, he is a joke, Fishburn was good!

I say bring Fish back too. I do not like the new guy. Ike's shameless
self plugs at the weigh in stand I can do without. He's OK by me
otherwise. I was quietly pulling for Aaron.

Share the knowledge, compete on execution.

I am glad KVD won. I hope Martens is doomed to 2nd place. Jooste from the
Federation reports himself and gets his catch zeroed for running a no wake
zone but Martens had no problem weighing fish and winning an FLW without a
license. Of course if Aaron had been running the wrong boat Irv the
liquidator might have had a different ruling like the guy without the
capacity plate. The man has NO ethics. IMHO. Sorry Thundercat, Aaron seems
like a nice guy but his ethics suck. Crown Royal, his sponsor last year was
very appreciative with gifts for my reporting Aaron last year. Joe Z.

No opinions on the classic? Or is it just me that nobody wants to reply
to? Not sure if I said , or did something to the wrong person, but
please let me know if I did.

I was really pleased there was no dancing on stage this time - and
little yelling.

Amen! Bozo is a compliment to that guy.I thought he was drunk!

I swear he looks like he should be in porn movies or something. BTW, who
the HELL is Robbie Taylor, and why is he broadcasting sidebars from the
Classic? I guess they had too many talking heads all set up, and not
enough fish being caught to give them much to talk about, so it was
kinda like 14 hours of one commentator asking another commentator who
they thought would win. I found the actual competition rather
captivating, as every keeper mixed up the standings. But I could have
done without the Emcee, Robbie, Kim, Byron, Shaw, Jay and Zona. Well,
keep Zona and Ron Franklin, bring back Fish (or better yet Ray) to run
MC the weigh-in, and let the fishermen do the talking.

I wonder if eternal 2nd place finishes are God's way of punishing
Martens for the license thing. Even though I like his fishing style, I
couldn't quite bring myself to root for him because of that.

Rich,
Maybe now that Kim accepted Andre Moore's proposal she will be a conflict of
interest? ;-) Robbie is the dork on BassMaster University on ESPN-2. If guys
Ike (And Skeet and Swindle) attract a few thousand more kids to try fishing
I can tolerate him and be grateful I don't have to be in a boat with him. I
am from the Al Lindner and Gary "Rotten" Roach age of fishing but I do
appreciate Ike's appeal to the youth. Joe Z.
