Pet peeve of mine when sports teams hire arena announcers who don't have this, and thus have to have the energy cranked up to 11 to compensate.

Beesley (Team intro/goal-penalty announcer guy) is amazing. Why is he getting roped into this?? Its pretty easy to tell them apart.
As far as the in arena promotions/pump up guy is concerned, I think he does overall a great job, just turn his mic down a bit. His enthusiastic approach is refreshing and I have no issue with him either. He is great with the kids who play in the intermissions too.
