the announcers should never be part of a home court advantage its about the kids the argument about the student sections and pep band doesnt really apply here. announcers shouldnt show favoritism they should be even. i realize that a lot of people put in time and effort to do it, but when it turns from 'look what they did' into 'look what i did' thats where you have a problem. i like the new rules and i hope they enforce them. theres too many people who think theyre the center of the show when it should be about the players
