What i think is that all of you fan-girls are only undermining Sean's ability to improve his casting through constructive feedback. Besides thats the first thing that sponsors who don't know or understand the game will notice. Sean could be as insightful as he wants if the people who don't play StarCraft or StarCraft2 dislike his vocabulary and Sean stands to lose the most.
His brother had the same problem with constantly repeating the phrase "at this point in time" during the GOM TV casting.
P.S. Sean could do a daily while sitting on the toilet and people like you would think it was brilliant and cheer every time he flushed...

But you didn't really tell him how to improve, how is that constructive? You just pointed out things that annoy you about his casting methods and said "don't do this, I don't like it".

Not overusing those words IS the improvement.

Stop being obnoxious.

Day doesn't need his fans to beat down every dissenting voice. Everyone who deals with an audience will receive criticism. If Day thinks he's right and wants to take his advice, he will. If not then he won't.
Usually I agree that criticism without putting forth a solution is bad criticism but when its one of those black and white things then its pretty obvious what a solution would be.

Will you stop leaning!!!!1eleven
Thanks for the pic, I lol'd

Bah, I love Day's style and all his wacky mannerisms. I'd be kind of sad if he dialed it back at all.
The only commentator meme that got under my skin a bit was Gretorp's constant use of the word "materialize," but I've since gotten over it and it's kind of endearing now.

All commentators have their mannerisms. Which is why we love them all in their own way. Whether it's djWheat's greeting "What. is. up. BITCHES!!" or Gretorp's "handsome, boppin clowns, realize, or refuted" or Day's over-the-top enthusiasm, "bejujular or colloxen" or TheGunRun's KPop, playlist, and "awkward laugh" or Martijn's sexy accent.
Something for all to love. Definitely not something to squelch. At this point in the development of eSports and live-casting for SC2, you want all the personality you can get. It helps you get even more attention and brings more publicity to the game.

Very good point. Criticism is very good.
I for one don't like how Day9 pauses so much. The stream would be more streamlined if you paused only when needed(when you need 30+ seconds to state your point), and stated important points as they are going on. This is especially frustrating when he does this frequently in the beginning, then Fast Fowards 8x in the last 1/4th of the game because he doesn't have time. Better time management means better casts. Good luck on cast 128.

Very very valid point as I for one also has been meaning to mention this. Then he could be able to focus on the whole game instead of missing bits when he fast-forwards. Most of the times though he has watched the replay so he probably knows every little bit that is interesting to show and those times I can see this happen either way .

You seem to just be asserting that because you are for some reason bugged by the use of certain words then everyone is and especially sponsors are. This is how people in real life talk, everyone has words or phrases that they use a lot. This may not be intentional but it still creates diversity among casters making them unique, and fortunately there are enough casters out there that if you don't like the way someone is talking then there are plenty others to listen to.
I don't know why people are so bad at arguing that whenever someone does not agree with them it HAS to be because they are blind fanboys or whatever. Just because you have the ability to type criticism does not make said criticism rational. You are just asserting that this is bad, "stop it to be better". When you have in fact offered neither evidence nor any statistics suggesting that this is bad or that the majority of listeners agree with you.

Day9 isn't trying to give you a VOD of the replays he casts in his daylies. There is a point why he pauses more often early game instead of analyzing every part of a "oh so epic" late game. The early game most of the time determines where the match is going and people tend to not realize this. Day9 tends to skip the late stages of games because there aren't as many valid points to be made for a proper analysis. And he openly tries to make that point himself so it seems you didn't get his message, yet.
