Dear Mr. Stern,
My Major concern, as a senior citizen armature linguist is: The continued redundancy used
by NBA TV announcers who continually use the REDUNDANCY of call teams by their entire
names, specifically Marv Albert saying "The San Antonio Spurs are bringing the basket
ball up the basketball court". It goes without saying that those of us people watching
the game know that we are IN FACT watching the Spurs bring the ball up the court.
He is THE most prominent offender, BUT by no means THE ONLY one.
One would expect that the supposed professional announcer would refrain from this
'redundant redundancy'.
Thanks for 'listening'.
Charles H. S.
