Mick Mixon needs a thread...

[Zod]

They asked me if I would add commentary but I would only do it if I was free to give commentary on any hot piece off ass in the stands. They disagreed.

i don't hate mick mixon. he learned from one of the greats and if he had a better voice he would be perfect. it's also too bad he looks like the scarecrow from wizard of oz.

He learned from Gene Overby?

Surely you don't mean his broadcast partner from Chapel Hill. That guy has one of the most annoying voices in sports.

[Baschski]

I don't understand the Mixon hate. He's not as good as his predecessor but I like him. He sounds like Carolina to me.

[Davidson Deac II]

Well, he's pretty bad...but one thing is for damn sure, he's not near as bad as the broadcast announcers on Fox NFL Sundays...well, at least the ones covering our games. (B, C teams)

I don't know if he is worse than them. They certainly don't know the team as well as he does, nor should they.

[Peppers90 NC]

He really is THAT bad. Go back to Chapel Hill, you putz.

He should go to Raleigh for state, he would be a star there.

woody durham? surely your distaste for him has nothing to do with your username being related to wake forest? i'm about as far from a UNC fan as you can get but i can appreciate a quality announcer, and woody durham most certainly is that.

Anyone can be an announcer (Mixon), it takes a great voice and personality to become a legend on the mic. Mick has neither.

[Nicbsbll2]

He's not as bad as he was when he first arrive in Charlotte....:sosp:

[Argus Plexus]

I was too young back then to remember the other guy. We moved before Mixon came in, and I never saw or heard a Carolina game (Except for the SB) since I was in AZ and I hate the Cards. I moved back two years ago, so Mixon is all I've ever known as far as Panthers announcers go.

Ok, but how many teams get a legend as an announcer? Just like not everyone can have an elite QB, but you don't need an elite QB to win.

As much flack as Mixon gets, I would genuinely like to know how many of you Panthers fans listen to the radio every week.

[Jangler]

I used to listen every week even with the delay, until he took over.

Oh, well then -- carry on.

Nope, being a Wake fan has nothing to do with it. I like Duke's announcers better than UNC and I hold both schools in equally low regard. To me, Woody's voice sounds like chalk on a Chalkboard.
