Zach Strief is a finalist for Saints’ radio play-by-play job
Former Saints offensive lineman Zach Strief is among the finalists for the teams’ radio play-by-play job, Jeff Duncan of the Times-Picayune reports.
Pelicans play-by-play announcers Sean Kelly and Joel Meyers and former WWL-TV anchor Mike Hoss are the other candidates to replace Jim Henderson, who retired in February. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.co...y-by-play-job/ |

Re: Zach Strief is a finalist for Saints’ radio play-by-play job
Zach as a play by play guy? I just don't see it. He's the least qualified candidate of all of the finalists. Being a color analyst on live broadcast is extremely difficult. The Jim Nance, Al Michael's, Vin Scully & Dick Enberg's of the world made it appear easy. Jim Henderson spoiled me with his pinpoint accuracy & delivery .
I think this job either goes to Hoss or Joel Myers (does exceptional work with the Pels play by play). |

I don't know if Zach is as qualified as the others but he would have my vote.

Re: Zach Strief is a finalist for Saints’ radio play-by-play job
Personally I don't think Joel Myers' voice is right for football. He has a sort of sing-song monotone cadence that kinda puts me to sleep after a while. But that's just me. I could deal with Mike Hoss or Sean Kelly although I've never actually heard Hoss do play-by-play. But please not Myers. He has an identity with doing the Pelicans games and that should stay there.

He just talks like he's trying to get the back-end of a beer down - No Thank You... |
