Over 29 years of fanhood Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 I've come to the conclusion that I dislike pretty much every broadcaster on every sport in every country. So few that add anything to a game. Oh well, Spero Dedes and Solomon Wilcots in Week 1, yay! Folks that gripe about Collinsworth/Michaels should have to watch theisman and tasker for a whole season... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralonzo Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Theismann is the Fredo Corleone of broadcasting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloMatt Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 He was not prepared to call the game. No prep whatsoever. His way of identifying Bills players was by saying something like this- He made that Bills defender miss or the Bills LB makes the stop. Are you kidding me Bush league effort. I was praying for Lawrence Taylor to storm the broadcast booth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy10 Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 (edited) Theismann's announcing skills don't have a leg to stand on. Oh snap! Edited August 27, 2016 by jimmy10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2o Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 (edited) Theisman is THE WORST color commentator I have ever had the displeasure of being forced to listen to. When they had a brief technical difficulty and the sound was clipped I was enjoying the game more. Edited August 27, 2016 by H2o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand what you have against an analyst who rambles on in an overexcited fashion with nonsensical breakdowns with inaccurate player names.

Marv's Neighbor Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 That coverage last night was just B-A-D bad. That's a player who should have moved on after playing. Living in Virginia, we're stuck with ALL the Deadskins games. If you don't like Joe, you need to listen to Sonny Jurgensen on the radio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapless Bills Fan Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 He was not prepared to call the game. No prep whatsoever. His way of identifying Bills players was by saying something like this- He made that Bills defender miss or the Bills LB makes the stop. Are you kidding me Bush league effort. I was praying for Lawrence Taylor to storm the broadcast booth. Pretty inexcusable in the age of the wireless tablet where it takes seconds to go to the Bills website, bring up the roster, and sort it by number, isn't it? I grant he'd have had to go a bit further, like finding a pre-season depth chart or a roster from last year, to see that when he was puckering up and extolling Cousins, Cousins and the 1st string Redskins O were playing against B'lo bubble-guys and 2nd or 3rd stringers.

Blokestradamus Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Folks that gripe about Collinsworth/Michaels should have to watch theisman and tasker for a whole season... For the Giants game, I tried Murphy & Kelso. Kelso sounds like a smart, informed guy. Especially as I was trying to write at the same time, his commentary was informative enough that I missed nothing. I respect people that do their homework. I adore Verne Lundquist doing SEC games. Joey Galloway is a really fun CFB broadcaster to listen to. The good ones are rare but they're appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted August 27, 2016 Author Share Posted August 27, 2016 OK im calmed down now He is still horrible The worst part of his commenatary is it leaves you wondering if he even knew that the Redskins team was basically not playing the real Buffalo team.....even our starting players were backups. Instead of praising every redskin player like they were all pros he really should have been upset that guys like Kurt Cousins had 20 yards passing till we were down to 90 percent guys that are not gonna make the team.

turbo044 Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 He constantly brought up Buffalo's high total of penalties w/o mentioning Washington had just as many. Never mentioned cousins was dominating with his first team against are 2nd and 3rd team. He was painful to listen too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beef Jerky Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 The stream I was watching was the Redskins and I had no complaints, but I did see a lot of people were angry with Theisman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
