But I must point out like at the end of PTI on ESPN, that Shannon Spake has already debut on ESPN College Football. She did a game from the sidelines a few weeks back. I believe it was a Division II game for a test run. Here in Hollywood we call it a screen test or dress rehersal. In racing it may be called the ARCA or ASA Series.<BR/><BR/>Speaking of announcing when is the exciting truck series going to get a dolt from Lincoln, Nebraska out of there and back to the corn field.<BR/><BR/>Have a great holiday!

I think he's nailed it. The core issue is style. FOX/Speed being relaxed versus ESPN's stiffness. (I would add ESPN's arrogance). Perhaps so many of the incidents that frustrate us stem from this basic difference in point of view.<BR/><BR/>MakikiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-28865447480395764252007-12-14T21:11:00.000-05:002007-12-14T21:11:00.000-05:00Tripp,I moved your post off the main comment page ...Tripp,<BR/><BR/>I moved your post off the main comment page so you could re-read my column.

On NN she was always informative and professional, not as much fun as Marty but I always listened to what she had to say. Her pit reporting seemed more rushed and somewhat scattered, this very well could have more to do with the producer/ director than Shannon herself. I would love to see her as the go to person when someone drops out, wrecks, etc.(JD I think you suggested this first) She's good at follow up and we all know that ESPN lacks in the follow up area. Shannon does work really hard and deserves a shot at football.

She's from southern Florida, and though she wanted a job in sports, she did not sit around waiting for someone to offer her one. I can only imagine what a culture shock it must have been as a young woman not too long out of college to move to NYC for her big break. Besides the culture and weather, the cost of living there must have been very discouraging. <BR/><BR/>Lots of people don't make it in this industry and I'm glad to see a young person maturing into the job. I'm sure she'll be even better next season.elenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13307257449151940082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-86303732863859198252007-12-14T19:04:00.000-05:002007-12-14T19:04:00.000-05:00The times I saw Shannon Spake on N-NOW I found her...The times I saw Shannon Spake on N-NOW I found her well-informed, informative, and hard-working. I'm not sure you can ask for much more. She obviously was not as good as Wendy V., Krista, or Angelique - but, they did not learn their craft by announcing to trees in the forest. Practice makes perfect.

No secret stuff involved.<BR/><BR/>darbar,<BR/><BR/>That is a debate that has raged for years, and has featured everyone from Phyllis George to Suzy Kolber. As you can see from my column, I admire Spake's hard work, which is a big part of making it in the TV world.
