  1. I could say something really caustic and hurtful but will bite my tongue. If you really want to go down this road I can oblige. I would suggest, however, that you revisit my comment and edit your post as you see fit. Don't lump "all men" into the category of broadcasters I was referring to. For instance, if there were two qualified broadcasters, one male and one female, I would prefer listening to the man announce football. As you can see, I'm not unreasonable after all.
  2. Al is ok. Shoot, Howard Cossell never played the game but he had a unique approach to announcing games. But the best color commentators usually have some "experience" to lend to the broadcast that a woman just can't contribute. In my opinion, that makes their announcing a football game manufactured. Women do a great job announcing tennis, figure skating, women's soccer, softball, gymnastics, etc. (all of which I watch when they are on).
  3. Yep. He played the game. But I get your point.
  4. Would you guys stop with the sexism allegations? Double standards? Seriously? Can't a guy express an opinion about his preference on announcers without the morality police and social justice warriors pointing fingers and screaming foul? Quite simply: I PREFER MEN ANNOUNCING FOOTBALL OVER WOMEN. Their voices are more in tune with the violent sport I love to watch. There...I said it. And this is coming from the father of two daughters as well (like Hondo above).
  5. There's just something about women sports talk shows (like the Saturday morning group of ladies on ESPN) or women announcing football games that makes me cringe. I love women, been married 20+ years, respect them, etc. but I honestly prefer to have a man who has played football or a coach call the game. Just my opinion.
  6. Now this is a topic I can get behind.
  7. Very optimistic. Playoffs.
  8. Yo no se seems like a rowdy kinda guy
  9. So what do you think the previous poster looks like based on his/her comments, personality, likes/dislikes, and attitude. I guess I'm first so I'll post a pic of myself. The next guy can post a pic of me as well.
  10. I was on the show. You were busy getting your car unlocked!! 😄
  11. Are you western PA? Anywhere near Warren? Country Cletus out that way.
  12. Click the link and you'll see what the black car thief looks like. Why are you up so early? With your anniversary and mother's day in the span of two days you shouldn't be able to walk.
  13. I identify Asian but have Irish bloodlines.
  14. She's a saint. Lovely woman.
  15. Why you son of a $!%#!!!
  16. Yes...very bad. Go watch the first season and then come back and answer the question about the war. Tony Soprano ran a tight crew and was well respected. With the loss of Sonny, I'd say Sopranos would kick Corleone's ass but it would take a few weeks.
  17. I would take the Corleone's as well. Michael was a great leader whereas Liotta got into cocaine and pills so his mind was !@#$ed up. Now if you want o have a war between Corleone's and the Soprano family...that would be interesting.
  18. With the start of minicamp I'm surprised we haven't started an "Injury Tracker" thread. 3, 2, 1......
  19. Well, if that's your idea of success (for a fella that plays basketball but can't make it to OTA's) then have fun with that. I would prefer a player who doesn't sell his wares on FB. And yes...Sam did say "y'all should worry about your 'lil old jobs".
  20. Damn. Just look at that post. "If he stays healthy but doesn't produce we should re-sign him because he's such a stud" (in so many words). Bullchit!! We saw what Stephanie Gilmore did last year...play just enough not to get hurt. If he wants to walk let him. McDeerlick wants players who want to be here and want to win...not guys who sell their gear on Facebook with catchy phrases like "Here's a tshirt for you guys with your lil' old jobs".
  21. What if I call 8 right now? Who do I get?
  22. The best chocolate I had in Buffalo is on Transit Rd. in Depew called Antoinettes. Get the dark chocolate molasses sucker. Amazing. I think they're still there.
