It’s an ESPNU kind of day. While searching for some Simmons outtakes I came across this video of analyst Bucky Waters calling the Wichita State Shockers “little monkeys”. It’s hard to believe that people would even attempt to try to make this anaology (ahem Anita Marks), but announcer after announcer seems to try it. And every time it comes off as awkward and not clever….especially when the Shockers have three African-American players on the court at the time….
