Austin Carr and His' Legendary Quotes

As many of you know I am not a huge fan of Austin Carr as a FSN announcer for the Cleveland CAVS.   He is extremely repetitive and gives everything a nick name.  Well today my friend Joe Woodward sent me a Facebook post about the Austin Carr drinking game on ESPN Cleveland.  Joe, single, 27, Akron, Hunter, Enginerd, INDIANS FAN, Steelers fan… can be seen below:

There is a little bit of controversy as to who came up with this drinking game but games like this can occur with anything repetitive, i.e. “Roxanne“.

Here are some examples of what comes out of Austin’s mouth:

• L-Train = horrible nickname for Lebron
• Throws the Hammer Down = Dunk
• In the Q = at Quicken Loans Arena, he insists on telling us this 40 times/game
• Get that weak stuff outta here = after a block
• 1 bird, 2 bird, 3 bird = a bird is when a defender jumps on a pump fake

I am sure there are many more that I am missing.  He does not like Arena names that are long.  Dallas plays at the American Airlines Arena.  This is too much for even Austin to repeat so he simply replaces it with the city name.

Most common phrase “L-Train, throws the hammma down, in the Q.”  Maybe he is starting to grow on me but I am glad that the game tonight versus Orlando is on TNT.
