well both the name and the age thing were graphic mistakes, not the announcing
the graphic said he was 23 and then at teh end of the run the announcers said sammy was 18
same with the name, the graphic said jon, but the picture showed simon, then the announcer squared things up saying that it wasnt jon but rather simon dumont
so that was more of so technical mistake, not the announcers
i just wanted to give the announcers a little break from all the NS hate thats all, and clear it up that it wasnt there fault on that one

it also says:
"Carlson's break out season as he also became a household name with impressive film segments in both Poor Boyz Productions, War,"
(It should be Poor Boyz Productions's War)

did anyone else get pissed off by the terrible filming job? the announcers as bad as they were are going for the mass public not the 1000 kids who are going to watch it either way. For me the filming was more annoying than anything else
