Leach and Pratt do both football and basketball. I was listening to the game today and Pratt in reference to an auburn player that kept complaining about calls, said he was bitching. I looked at my wife and she was like did he just say that. I was cracking up. Before someone says it's a FB board they do the football games also, just never heard anything like that on the radio broadcast.

Jeff Piecoro does football (used to be on Reds Live) but I noticed that too, lol. I’ve never heard Pratt say something like that.
Pratt doesn't usually carry on about reffing a whole lot but he did make it a point today to comment on the foul calls the first half.
I'm glad you posted this thread here on the football board, even though Mike Pratt doesn't call the football games.
The reason why is that I didn't get to watch the game live, but guessed from the box score that the refs screwed us big time. Gonna also guess that it was about 3-5min into the 2nd half that they started to call us for fouls that Auburn was committing with impunity.
Rebounding was even, we hit 50% overall and 42% from 3, UNDER 10 turnovers, 6 blocks, Oscar only has one foul, at least 3 players over 15 points .... crazy that we lose the game .... until I hear about Mike Pratt's comments and see that they shot 3x more free throws than we did.

I don't go on there. Washington scored put UK up 8 sprained his ankle on the play and was out the rest of the game. It was mostly all Auburn after he went out. I quit listening after they pulled ahead
That means that It was really bad and w/o saying it that the officiating sucked…
Sadly you got my curiosity up so I went over there. It did not take long to find a thread that it wasn't a bad loss that basically turned into a FAAAR CAL! thread lol. There were a couple of good takes but mostly what you're expecting. Now I need to go wash the stench off be back in a bit.
Got to watch a couple highlights-
1. Pretty amazing the disparity in the calls of 2 plays by the announcers. Toppin's 360 dunk call putting UK up 8 is virtually lifeless. A ho-hum dunk by Auburn to put them up 5 has Nessler? and co celebrating like they got a pony.
2. Did Auburn realize they are ranked higher and favored and at home where they should win? They celebrated like it was their first kegger.

Didn’t get to watch the second half but I thought we got a very good whistle in the first half , maybe even favorable.
Said he was “ Bitching” about calls
“ never heard that before “ you live under or a rock or never listen to sports
He didn’t say anything and that the rest of the sports announcers don’t say
“Snowflake”
Dude, I love Pratt but usually he’s half asleep while Leach screams when we’re playing the Tennessee Techs of the world. I was happy he still has a little bit of life in him. You can count on your two thumbs how many times Mike Pratt has said ‘bitch’/‘bitching’ on the air.
I thought it was funny dumb ass. I don't give a F what he says.
I don’t think so that time, but that made me laugh when he was talking about his jersey lol.I think he might have been thinking about kd Johnson but he definitely said keldon Johnson lol
They need to be careful any more on the airwaves. Iowa's play-by-play broadcaster was suspended two years ago for referring to an opposing player as "King Kong". Literally there was one fan who voiced being upset about the reference to Learfield Sports and it lead to a several game suspension.
