在Motorsports中没有比Jerry“Doc”拳击,一个狼人足球教练Lou Holtz的一次性步行赛,一个短暂的赛车和紧急医疗医师两次1988年,他的广播麦克风丢弃,以治疗危及危及碰撞的司机伤害。
潘趣是北卡罗来纳州牛顿市人,1975年以优异成绩毕业于北卡罗来纳州立大学,获得动物学学位,1979年在维克森林大学的鲍曼格雷医学院获得医学学位。他用在北卡罗莱纳短道速滑比赛中赢得的奖金支付了两所学校的学费,一半的钱投入了学费基金,另一半钱用于保养自己的赛车。
他在Hickory Motor Speedway的每周骑士上都与他的祖母一起度过的每周骑士都爱上了赛车,因为赛道所有者只聘请了当地教堂的Deacons来工作,他的祖父碰巧成为一个虔诚的教会领袖。
正是Punch那聪明的乡村口音——他称之为“受过教育的乡巴佬”——让他在20世纪80年代登上了电台和电视。1984年,他开始在有线电视网ESPN做实况转播记者,现在是世界领先的体育机构中任期第七长的播音员。
虽然他在纳斯塔尔国家长大,但克切越过了广播其他体育赛事,包括印度印度赛车和大学橄榄球。星期天,他将参加广播塔,为印第安纳波利斯500的第100次奔跑,连续25年打破汽车赛车的ABC最大的活动。
我们向Wolfpack提出了关于他的时间的五个问题,他的时间在短轨道和超级赛道和NC州对赛车运动的影响。
自从您是北卡罗来纳州的驾驶员,汽车赛车已经大大变化了,而您是NC州立学生。这项运动的最大演变是什么?
当我毕业于NC州时,电机运动中发生了很多事情,不包括计算机。有三个或四个家伙坐在坑里看着轮胎磨损和春天的磨损和面试司机。它不需要任何数据采集。然后Richard Chillress聘请了一个名为Bobby Hutchens的NC州立毕业生,他们拥有机械工程学位。他开始使用计算机工程设计汽车,使用他的NC州背景。他也是一个短轨司机,他试图开发适当的重量分布模型。司机并不像它,而理查德·孕育并没有太了解它。在Daytona的实践中,Dale Earnhardt在练习中抬头看了,在他的车里看到一台笔记本电脑。他把它拉起来扔掉了右侧窗外,告诉Bobby Hutchens,“如果你想了解一下车的东西,请问我,我会告诉你的。”你不需要所有其他垃圾。 That was 30 years ago. Now, every race team has an army of engineers, with at least two engineers in the pit box sitting beside the crew chief who is also an engineer. They collaborate looking at all kinds of data, from fuel to tire wear to track temperature. All of that information is directly downloaded from the car. They build cars based on computer-aided design models. In the wee hours of a race morning, you will find the crew chief staring at two or three different computers with all kinds of advanced analytics. It’s all computer technology. There’s hardly anything to do with going out and guessing which springs or tires go on the car. That’s why the engineering applications that NC State graduates are bringing to the track are so valuable. If you walk through a garage, you will be hard-pressed to find a team that doesn’t have two or three NC State engineers.
您在赛车的经历是如何让您播放的?
当我6岁时,我开始去短途比赛。我的祖父是当地教堂的执导,山核桃赛道的推动者只聘请了绑架来工作盖茨,因为他认为他们是最值得信赖的。然后他会捐款回教堂。我会坐在那里和我的祖母一起坐在山顶上,用我们的自创的乳酪三明治观看理查德和李执行,少年约翰逊,Ned Jarrett和所有这些家伙。当我年纪大了时,我工作了几位当地的船员建造发动机。虽然我在NC州,但我会在夏天回家,做一些驾驶。我记得一年在春季比赛中玩备用四分卫,让Carter体育场留下来,并在Metrolina Speedway参加夏洛特比赛。当我去医学院时,我推动了两个后期模型之一,拥有的家庭的朋友。另一个司机是NASCAR CHAMPION BOBBY ISAAC。他们曾经告诉我们在医学院休息几个小时,每周清除你的思想。 So I did that by running the scoreboard and doing the statistics at Hickory on the weekends. I got to know Ned Jarrett, the promoter at Hickory Motor Speedway, really well and one day had hired an announcer to do a race in Darlington and his announcer didn’t show, so he asked me to do it. Ned got me on the Motor Racing Network as his assistant for a while and then he suggested I go to television. ESPN had just started and they wanted me to do some shows. One day, ABC’s Wide World of Sports called NASCAR and said they were looking for an announcer to work with Keith Jackson, who didn’t know a lot about racing. “But we don’t want some redneck,” they said. The NASCAR executives told them they had the perfect educated redneck who grew up around racing, built engines and worked with all these guys when they were dirt poor. He went to college, med school and he understands the sport. The next thing you know I am at the track in Daytona broadcasting with Keith Jackson for the Wide World of Sports. It evolved from there.
您在急诊室的经验如何帮助您进行广播?
我总是试着问人们一些问题让他们在回答问题时能保持尊严。尽量尊重别人,给他们留下尊严。没有人会因为今天过得很开心而去急诊室是心脏病发作,中风,骨折之类的。那些在比赛中途不得不离开跑道的人,我必须和他们谈谈。他们也经历了糟糕的一天。你每周只跟一个心情好的人说话,他就是赢家。大学橄榄球也是一样。这周你和很多人谈过了,但他们中有很多人都有一个糟糕的赛季或糟糕的半场。你真的必须小心你提出问题的方式,这样你就不会暗示或推断他们的内疚或质疑他们的教练或驾驶能力。 The biggest difference is that in the emergency room, I have to ask direct questions. On the race track, I usually ask the hard-working, open-ended questions. You want a more lengthy, in-depth answer, so you can get it out there before they get mad and stomp off.
医疗行业,赛车,大学橄榄球,媒体都是不同的东西。你是如何将它们混合在一起的?
我现在回来做一些大学橄榄球比赛的实况转播播音员而不是副业记者。我很享受和教练之间的关系。我喜欢和总教练和助理教练在一起。团队医生和培训师也是如此。我经常谈论体育话题,体育媒体,什么该说,什么不该说。我还参与了一些有关头部和颈部损伤和头盔开发的研究。我还在做医学演讲所以我总是试图把教练、医生、教练和媒体当成一个大家庭。每个人都有点不同,但我认为这一切都回到了与每个人都保持良好关系。一些年轻的足球教练还不太了解我,不能信任我,但其他知道我是谁的教练在他们的项目周围对我很开放。 Things have changed through the years, but I have created lots of great memories both in auto racing and in college football.
你从股票赛车开始,但你已经为ABC和ESPN做了很多印度赛车。这两件事如何相似和不同?
成长为股票车男孩,我以为没有比达灵顿和南部500更好的了,赛道和巴格特和游行和达灵顿和佛罗伦萨的兴奋。然后你去代托纳,看看那里发生的一切。这是从一年开始的超级赛车。然后在1989年,我有机会去印第安纳波利斯500 500,并在我第一次看到它时播出比赛。随着全体尊重的股票赛车,没有像Indy 500一样,世界上最大的单日运动赛事。对于司机来说,你有一天赢得了一场比赛,它将永远改变你的生活。他们的遗产得到了保证。你赢了杆子,他们知道你的名字一周左右。如果你赢得比赛,他们永远了解你的名字。随着今年的是100周年,他们已经售罄了每个座位,每个套房和infield,它会很棒。 I’ve stood beside Super Bowl winning quarterbacks, Cy Young Award-winning pitchers, four-star generals, the Secretary of Defense and watched them shiver with emotion when the cars come around the track and 400,000 people roar. It is a bucket list item, even if you are not a motorsports fan. Even if you are not a sports fan. If you just want to go somewhere for one day and see something that is unlike anything you have ever seen before, the Indy 500 is just that.
