We are looking to add color commentary to our game "broadcasts", so that the play-by-play is complemented by something other than a simple description of the action.

I cannot promise that specific suggestions will be used, or that a certain amount of suggestions will be used, but the more good ones we get, the better, obviously.

All submissions need to be in English only, and in the following format:

Commentary Line:
Possible Trigger:
Tactical/Neutral/Biased:

An example:

Commentary Line: Player X had a wide open shot, but failed to see the opportunity
Possible Trigger: Open shot
Tactical/Neutral/Biased: Tactical

Tactical are items that describe an action that isn't terminal to the play (as given in the example above).
Neutral can be something like "Player X has a triple double!"
Biased would be something along the lines of a Tommy Heinsohn or (for you hockey fans), a Jack Edwards, such as "A great play by Player X, that's why they bought him!"

I look forward to seeing what you come up with, and let's make it great!

NO ONE at this table ordered a rum & Coke
Charles: Penn has some good people
A CT? Really?
Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score
Any five are live
