Anyone see it.

"Blake Hof-a-barr"?? Geeez. There's a new one. Probably the same clown that kept saying "Sha-KO-pee".
 


What's funny is that is kind of how his name sounded by the announcer at the games in Puerto Rico - with a strong accent. Hoffarber and Mbakwe were great to hear.

I was laying in bed last night and this morning in my hotel room and watched ESPN for quite a while and never saw it. I did see Rodney's dunk.
 

Nothing will ever replicate the Robbinsdale Cooper coach, interviewed at halftime of the ('06, I think?) state title game, just butchering Hoffarber endlessly. If it were a college or pro game, it would have 5 million views on youtube.

Was it Scott Van Pelt doing it? If so, it was likely on purpose. He always whips out his hilarious (to him) Minnesota accent when doing Gopher highlights.
 

I hate when he does that. He loves to make fun of MN using references that aren't even related in any way to MN.

Yes. The problem is 97% of the people watching don't know that. And if they were at least funny you could shrug it off, but it's just dumb.

I think SVP has seen "Fargo" one too many times.
