Default Re: Announcers saying MPH

I agree,Danny.
When I was at Edgewater, I used to announced the Friday night T&T sometimes.
Most of the time , I would just say " left lane gets there first with a 12.91 @ 103" no matter what the tenths are or "right at 104 miles an hour".
I figured anybody who really cares what the tenths were could see it on the boards or the time slip, if they really had to know. Otherwise, all those number are boring to most folks in the stands.
