No use wasting time, lets get this thread a rocking! It's what we'll be talking about all week, might as well have a thread so we can keep it in one place rather then a couple dozen individual threads.
Just for the sake of clearing up something stupid...
That woman was speaking into a condenser microphone. She could've been in a silent sound-proof room and it would have been extremely hard to hear her from a few feet away. I used to intern on a sports radio show and make sound bites, etc. That was a really dumb display.

For the sake of science, that microphone could be condensor, but most likely is not, since mics used for loud or dynamic mic'ing are called dynamic microphones. Neither here nor there, since it is not the type that matters but the pickup pattern adn the gain level. Most microphones are cardioid which is the area directly in front of the microphone. Some are omni or various versions of cardioid that allow side or rear axis recording. That microphone in a soundproof room would have been very nice and if it was a condensor, that would be about the distance you would use to replace an actor's dialog doing ADR for TV or film.
The mics used in radio are large diaphragm condensors and get the low frequency booming sound due to very close mic technique that uses the proximity effect to create the sound. In this case, the pre-amp on the input stage has to be very low since the mouth of the person speaking is very close to the diaphragm of the mic. If that person moves back 3 feet, then yes it would be hard to hear them because the pre-amp is so low.
I have a degree in sound engineering and work in television post production including having been an ADR mixer for dialog replacement.

I was thinking about that a little earlier, but I like to keep it as a surprise when I go to games.Who is going to raise the 12th man flag this sunday!?!
My best guess is going to be Clint Dempsey though.
I honestly hope you don't need a good choice at flag raiser to get you pumped up for this game. They could trot out Bill from De Moines, Iowa, who's a middle aged tax accountant with 3 kids and a dog. He also likes lasagna, but doesn't love it. - And I would be absolutely ready to go because the magnitude of the matchup is already exciting.I seriously hope you are wrong, there is no way a soccer player would get me pumped up for a game. A better choice would be Mike Holmgren, who is in town and would likely be going to the game anyway. Or how about Michael Robinson, if he is well enough?
