Television: What is it like to be a sportscaster for professional sports?


It's truly thrilling. To lead the crowd in the thrilling details down on the field is beyond magical. It boggles my mind that I get paid to do my favorite thing on earth (comment on live action sports)

Sports Announcers: What's it like to be a sports play by play announcer?

It's absolutely thrilling. You get to be really close to the action. You get all types of electronic views, live and streaming, and most importantly, you get to inspire the crowd, to inform them of the magic happening down in the field. There is no feeling like it.
