Suns TV Broadcast goes Retro…
The local broadcast of tonights match-up between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Phoenix Suns on MY45 will go retro tonight. And we aren’t talking uniforms here. Al McCoy will make his appearance in the second quarter, but in the first, there will be a slight twist:
The game broadcast will start in black and white with a grainy-film look and two camera angles. The graphics will have no logos, a huge, basic scoreboard, an in-laid camera shot of the game clock and “instant replay” labels. A Suns dancer will hold billboard advertisements.
Plus all of the Suns former announcers will be on hand to broadcast a segment of the game. Not to worry though, if you can’t handle black and white, billboards, and outdated graphics(hey thats what ESPN Classics is for), TNT is carrying the game as well.
Now its time for me to go run home and get this gem on Tivo.
