I’ve literally never had an issue conversing with somebody right beside me. That zonabb is apparently just a miserable human being.... And soccer????? LOL. Okaaayyy. I guess I was more reacting to TV coverage. NFL commentators and coverage is abysmal, and his descriptions of that style were dead on. Commentators in the EPL are fantastic, behave like adults, and generally add to the TV experience. In MLS you sometimes have this type of coverage, and other times have coverage based on the American model. The difference is staggering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they just sound smarter because they have british accents? The Seattle Sounders radio and TV and PA announcers have british accents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The EPL has almost zero hooliganism. But carry on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royale with Cheese Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 I think the Bills should trade Wyatt Teller to the Browns. They really need help on the line and we have depth at guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a stark difference with our style of commentary, regardless of accent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all come to TSW because we’re all fans of what may be one of the most painfully unsuccessful sports franchises in history. Through all of those awful years, we really had only one golden era. The Superbowl era. So, instead of talking about those times nostalgically, you need to revise history and call the best coach in our franchise’s history, a crappy Head Coach? That’s pretty sad if you ask me. Losing 4 SBs in a row would indicate some sort of coaching failure. But, hey, these are "unpopular" opinions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuvian Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Football is going the way of Boxing - it will only be played by the poor and desperate. Luck's retirement was the writing on the wall Bill Belichick has been beating the pants off the NFL for 20+ years and no one has figured him out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thunderingsquid Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Sweetheart stadium deals with owners having the city by the stones is an abomination. All should follow the way of the Packers collective publicly owned arrangement. It should be the rule not the exception. Power to the PEOPLE, y'all!
