has forced live sports to take a break, several sportscasters are finding new — and far less exciting — activities to cover. While your favorite sports announcers might not be there to give play-by-plays of professional sports, many are now giving commentary on extremely normal activities like taking food out of the oven, crossing the street or putting away groceries.
Professional commentators including Josh Lewin, Mike Bagley, and Nick Heath are bringing levity to the current situation by sharing videos of themselves giving hilarious play-by-plays on social media. In one clip, Lewin narrates the extreme sport of cooking dinner, which he dubbed “Asparagus and Potatoes.” “Courtney is in, will she … yes, two hands grabbing the roasted potatoes, now it’s all about the asparagus, Courtney’s got the angle, she’s got the pan. It’s out of here! Asparagus and potatoes! Asparagus and potatoes!” Lewin exclaims as he films the mundane activity. The sportscaster also urged his followers to film similar videos and share their commentaries with the hashtag “Play by Play of Anything at All.”“Light turns to red, we wait for the beeps, there they are … JD sports bag, he’s got a decent start. Leggings on the outside. JD sports bag is a bit distracted … Leggings is gonna get there. Oh, she does it again!” he says excitedly in the video.Bagley, a motorsports commentator, used his racing expertise to give a play-by-play of his dogs chasing each other around a pool. “Here they come, this is lap number five. We’ve got Lexi in the lead, Louie trying to track her down. We’ve got Louie on the inside. Oh, Millie gets in the way. They make contact … Lexi will win by five dog legs!” Bagley details the race.A Running List of Every Festival, Sporting Event and Show Canceled or Postponed in the Wake of the Coronavirus The 2020 Toyko Olympics are the latest major sporting event to be affected by the coronavirus pandemic that has killed thousands across the globe.
