    A year or so ago I would have said you were crazy. And I still think he's a good commentator. But I'm starting to think he's kind of a douche. I read a couple of interviews recently where he really came off as a little bit of a prick. And I don't know if he's always been this way and I'm just now noticing, or maybe I'm imagining it, but since then I've started to notice how he's always making sarcastic remarks and busting people's balls all the time.

    Here's an Al Michaels-ism that I've noticed. I don't know exactly how to word it. He does this thing where he says a guys "says" something when he doesn't. I know that doesn't make sense. Here's some examples to explain:

    -Mike Tomlin calls a timeout.
    "And Tomlin says he wants a timeout."

    -Tom Brady hurries his team to the line of scrimmage"
    "And Brady says I wanna move quickly here."

    -John Fox signals for the punt team on 4th down but Peyton Manning waves him off to go for it.
    "Fox says let's punt but Peyton says no, let's go for it."

    Not crazy about Marv Albert's voice. And I don't like the 2 meatheads that do Thursday night Football.

    And there's one guy that sounds like Anderson Cooper, but he's okay

    I REALLY don't like these 2 guys on TNF. It's painful. The play by play guys not as bad- it's the other guy I can't stand. I wish he'd just STFU, Lol

    simms and nance have a synergistic thing going where their combined suckiness is greater than the sum of their individual suckiness :lol:

    that made me laugh. I hate Simms. Gruden might be my favorite right now.

  • It seems as if everybody on the internet hates every sports announcer. Except for Gus Johnson. They like him

    I find that even the commentators I start out liking, I start disliking them eventually. Like Gruden and his partner on MNF? Started out liking them, but now they're getting on my nerves. They should rotate sports commentators so they don't have the same gig all the time. Same with these 2 meatheads on SNF. They bug me now. :fp:
