Sports Announcers Being Completely Wrong

Sometimes announcers are very wrong about predicting a play, a player's name, or just random things during the broadcast. Here is a compilation of some of these moments in sports. The announcers from other sports/college are at the end. Comment more for part 2.

I have always said, if something is this confusing, it's even more likely that there's a perfectly reasonable explanation for it.
