[NU Sports] annoying fans and PA announcers

[Roy Lamberton]

NU sells the signage at Ryan and I have to assume they also sell spots on the
video system too.

As I recall, the folks who are responsible for that fund raising used to be
members of this list server so I'm sure your constructive criticism has already
been noted ;)

For the record, I don't have a problem with NU making a few more bucks for the
athletic dept thru stadium announcements. I just wonder about the presentation,
and the eventual change from kids in suits and ties to guys in sweatshirts
jumping around the sidelines between plays trying to stir up more excitement.

Thank goodness that WGN hasn't decided to put a field guy out talking to fans
the way some of the NFL teams have done recently. Talk about a distraction. 

The excitement is supposed to be down on the field.
