I pity folks that have to rely on these dudes calling a game.
That other dude is Dan Hoard, and he is a phenomenal announcer. He's UC's play-by-play announcer in both football and basketball, and has been an institution in this town for two decades. He's actually been in a Simpsons episode (as himself...look it up), and was on Letterman (part of Dave's long running Chuck Machock bit).
Lapham on the other hand is a total clown. He's an F- "color guy", who makes it near impossible to follow the game. It's actually embarrassing to have him associated with this city. I cringe of the thoughf of out of towners flipping on the radio and linking him to to this team and city. And for those that don't know, he's part of Mike's inner circle. He and the Brown family have breakfast or lunch every week, according to Mike.
Anyway, lay off Dan Hoard. Real Cincinnatians love and appreciate him. I'll forgive you for not being from here but he really is a great radio guy.
