He should stick to talking about Air Conditioners.

I enjoyed it when Theismann said something about the Ravens getting Fabian Washington back. ummmmm, back from where Joe? Do you even follow the NFL?
[/quote]
I remember that one. I think they were talking about the beat up secondary, but they got Webb and Washington back from injury.

[Ravens Beast]

Theismann is a joke

I don't mind Mark Taylor as a commentator, what is so bad about him?

[FerrariFan87]

After last Thursday Night, it's gotta be Joe Theismann... Bryant Gumbel was also dreadful.

He talks too fast and says stupid things.

Robert Walls is another nomination.

I don't mind Robert Walls at all, probably because he played for Carlton, Malcolm Blight is pretty bad. At least we can agree that Kelli Underwood is the worst commentator on the face of the Earth.

[Purple Punishment]

Maybe not a commentator but man I cannot for the life of me stand Skip Bayless. He says the dumbest things and tries to get loud, obnoxious and blurt out sentence fragments to make a point that he never gets around to making

[George70]

Based on what I've been reading online, both here and elsewhere, Theismann rates lower than root canal surgery with no anasthesia and a dull drill bit.

True.

[BALTIMOREFLACCO]

I think Dan Dierdorf is worse than Theisman. He doesn't play favorites as much as hate the Ravens for no reason

That surprising to hear. He has a pretty good reputation as a fair guy.

[Purple Nurple]

Sorry all, but "Boom Goes the Dynamite" guy FTW. I'm in TV and I feel so bad for this guy. Try and last the whole 4 minutes.

EDIT: Kansas of Kansas, lol. Poor guy. Thats TelePrompTer malfunction + noob + live TV? = hilarity.

Now that you've brought up some of the AFL voices, how do you feel in regard to Sandy Roberts?

[Purple Punishment]

LMAO Boom Goes The Dynamite...thats too funny

I don't mind him, but I don't think he commentates many, if any matches for channel 7. (I'm not sure) It is mostly Dennis Commetti, my favourite commentator and the 'delicious' Bruce McAveney*.

*Bruce called Cyril Rioli delicious and that's where delicious came from, he also has said some other funny things this season.

[Shammy]

Rich gannon ... and the guy that used to be on CBS he was a lineman for the 49ers in the 80s i cant thing of his name

[gumbleton]

Sandy Roberts stopped doing games about 10 years ago I think.

"Despite this impressive resume, Roberts is often remembered for his gaffe in introducing the 1981 Miss Australia, Leanne Dick as "Leanne ******" during a Mount Gambier Cup meeting."

If you mean Randy Cross, yes, he's annoying too.

[Ed_Reed20]

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Steve Young. He's not a commentator anymore but he was brutal on MNF last season.

[George70]

Of course, there were those who recall Dennis Miller on MNF, mostly because his tenure was not good - to put it mildly.

I'm resurrecting this thread based on a recent study:

I actually like Solomon Wilcots.

[ryan23945]

joe buck and mike tirico, god i wanna hurl, one example of joe buck, i remember years ago when the vikes beat the pack in gb, randy moss mock pulled his pants down, u guys remember that, and what did buck say "that is a disgusting act by randy moss" but what he doesnt know is that the fans actually moon the players when they come and go on the bus, so moss was just playin oit right back, no announcer should make a mistake like that, guy obviously isnt in touch with the game and has no ide what hes talkin about

and mike tirico, god dont get me started, hes always just destroying players, if the mess up, he acts like hes played the game, the only game it looks like hes good at playin is crush the bear claw, get a grip mike, u dont own the team

i wish there were more players or coaches as lead announcer, im sure there could be, most of the colour guys r good, i think a few would make good lead announcers

[font="Century Gothic"]Made a post earlier in the week, I just want to gag Joe Theismann at this point.

PS: Just think, when Joe Theismann passes away, the average American IQ will jump from 98 well into the 130s. HE'S BRINGING US DOWN MAN!![/i][/font]

NFLN just needs to hire me already. I'll do it for free, just pay for my airfare and hotel and expenses. Make it happen.

The irony being that you probably know a great deal more and likely to be more impartial than the clowns currently on there.

Chris Collinsworth takes the cake for me, can't stand the guy and the love he has for the Steelers.

[/quote]

From what I've been reading of Cris, both in this thread and elsewhere, apparently Cris is not that well loved or liked - considering he was once a Bengal, and now his crush for the Steelers.

[Ed_Reed20]

Personally, I like Collinsworth.
