And finally, our coach sounded just like the coach we had for Little League football. Gruff but also kind, a little world weary yet without the angst, he's more of a weathered boyscout than a hardened soldier:
As for the announcer, what can we say? Think of him as a cross between Napoleon Dynamite and Steven Wright.
