A word on today's Ravens announcers on Fox

One thing that shined through about the Sam Rosen-Tim Ryan pairing doing today's game was how much they seemed like partners. They actually were talking to each other as much as talking to the audience. Lots of times, you hear teams in which it's the play-by-play man's turn to talk, then the analyst's turn to talk, then the play-by-play man's turn to talk and so on, without a real sense of interaction between the two. Rosen and Ryan have that.

I completely agree. I really enjoyed their commentary. Too bad our usual announcers on CBS or our local radio guys don't seem to get it like Rosen and Ryan do.

About Ray Frager
Ray Frager joined The Baltimore Sun’s sports department in 1985 and has been an assistant sports editor for more than 15 years. This is his second stint writing a sports media column for The Baltimore Sun. Most sequels aren't as good as the original, but then, the original wasn't all that great either.

Frager, born in 1957, grew up in northern Delaware (graduating from a high school that since has shut down) and received his bachelor's degree in journalism from Rider College in Lawrenceville, N.J. He worked as a reporter and copy editor at The Trenton Times and The Dallas Morning News before coming to Baltimore.

Surprisingly, if you look at his accompanying photo, Frager is married and has a son and daughter. He enjoys playing basketball and has organized pickup games among members of The Baltimore Sun staff for many years, which means they don't get too mad at him for shooting way too much.

He has a good beat and is easy to dance to. I'd give him an 85.
