Like Mariano, The Sterl needs to Warble often to maintain sharpness. Tonight, following five straight losses, he sounded rusty, tired, angry. Notice the tightness, the urgency to push it through, as if he fears some greater power will retract the moment.
He foregoes the signature gasp that comes before the final word "Winnnnn" in a great Warble.
This too costs valuable seconds.
An off-warble.
Hey, every great announcer suffers one... now and then.
And there's always tomorrow.
I don't think he truly believed they won.
