Announcers?

For the past few years I have been announcing Emery High girls volleyball games (recieved this appointment the year Melissa coached). It's nice because we get to support friends and people we teach and know. Parker loves it as he spends a lot of his time playing with his own microphone, hitting a volleyball, or using a flashlight as a microphone. These distractions have worked for awhile but now are mere hinderences to the "real" microphone. He does get his "air time" at the conclusions of the game. It is as these moments that I get glimpses of tag team announcers debuting on Sportscenter. These moments are brief though when you are hauling a screaming kid out of the gym because his dreams apparently have just been dashed by the very person he was emulating.
