He was doing some commentary on ESPN 360 but I"m guessing Mike Douglas has been announcing pipe for a long time so they just let him do it.

If LVV announced, he would get the trick names correct, call the features by their correct names, and not mention Shawn White every 10 seconds.

That's 3 strikes and out in ESPN's book

you run out of shit to say up there. Next time you are watching a comp try to fill up all the time, its hard as shit. But Uncle E does not seam to know much about skiing, which is why he is there. Remember most people watching are not newschoolers.

He probably has a contract with Alli that doesnt let him announce the X-Games. That would be the only reason I could see X taking Uncle E over LVV. Uncle E just lets mike douglas say everything about a trick.

"Mike, explain to us what we just saw"

"Well, you see the way his feet go above his head twice? That's called a double cork. With a tail grab."

"Absolutely. Couldn't have explained it any better Mike. Thanks for that".
