Bills!Win! Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 (edited) I was actually going to create a topic about this today. I had to listen to the game yesterday while at work and I could just feel the excitement and the domination of the game through his voice. Yes, however he is a little too excited.

Perfect characterization of that clown. 56 minutes ago, Pine Barrens Mafia said: Yes, yes I do. His call of Epenesa's TD was excellent.  I’m better in my sleep than that girly-voiced pip will ever be. I think he’s terrible and makes me yearn for Murph back at the mic. -and I don’t like Murphy either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. K Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 I like Brown as a reporter, but I can’t stand his screeching whenever a Bill makes a good play. Fingernails on a blackboard would be a relief after him. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GerstAusGosheim Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Sudden bursts of shouting are expected during a game. What I can't stand is when he starts shouting during One Bills Live. Over something completely unnecessary. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Truthfully, just about all "hometown" announcers are brutal. You hear the clips if you are driving around listening to SiriusXM NFL Radio on Sunday...I cringe at 95% of the touchdown calls.  2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted September 25, 2023 Author Share Posted September 25, 2023 42 minutes ago, thenorthremembers said: The only thing I've ever really thought about in regards to this topic is whose Wheaties Murph must have pissed in during his time here.  For a fabase as generous as the Bills have, this guy gets no empathy at all.  His brother dies of cancer near the end of the 2020 season and its met with little to no feedback from the fans.  Dude suffers a stroke last year and of course there were well wishes, but while he is still recovering we want to debate if the guy standing in for him is better at his job?   I really couldn't care less who does the radio call.  Just wondering why Murph gets little to no love from the fans?     He's bad at his job?  1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackbeard Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 The ONLY gripe I have of Chris Brown, and it's significant (at least for me) is he is CONSTANTLY way too excited and LOUD.  And i'm only talking about his show with Tasker. Brown gets too loud.  Almost like he's screaming at times.  Dude needs to chill.  Tell me i'm not the only one? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_In_NH Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 (edited) They both suck to be honest.   How do you find the van millers and Rick Jenorrettes of the world…. 2 minutes ago, Blackbeard said: The ONLY gripe I have of Chris Brown, and it's significant (at least for me) is he is CONSTANTLY way too excited and LOUD.  And i'm only talking about his show with Tasker. Brown gets too loud.  Almost like he's screaming at times.  Dude needs to chill.  Tell me i'm not the only one? Oh you are not alone.  The guys screams over nothing.   Edited September 25, 2023 by Matt_In_NH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's No Moon Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Murphy was an excellent color commentator. He has never been a good PBP man. I agree that Brown is better, but that's not a high bar. He has room for improvement and hopefully, given time, he will improve. Murphy, given time, got worse. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. WEO Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 He sounds like a HS kid broadcasting on CCTV.  Mindless hype machine. Like a hopped up Gus Johnson, without the intelligence. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May Day 10 Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 I do like his enthusiasm and he does a decent job...  He suffers from the same problem that Murphy has though. I listened to the first 20 minutes of the game on the radio yesterday. You have little idea of down/distance or the depth of a play. Van Miller used to paint that picture so well and build that information into the intensity of his voice and calling the game.   "Theres a pass out there to Kincaid... he grabs the ball! He is brought down there by XXXX. Nice quick pass there by Allen who was already feeling some pressure from his left side. They only gained 3 yards though and its 3rd and 7.  Most plays can be anywhere from 1 yard to 12 yards and you don't really know for too long. Id say Brown is a little better at giving those details on a timely basis than Murphy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Einstein Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 I appreciate Chris Brown's enthusiasm. Murph made it sound like he was at a funeral. There were amazing long TD plays that you would have thought were a 5 yard pass on 3rd and 10. One was the long TD pass in the Patriots wildcard blowout.

Straight Hucklebuck Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 I think he sounds psychotic on his calls.  Screaming at the top of his lungs. The type of screaming that strains your guts he's yelling so loud.  Other guys around the league have an iconic/recognizable voice.  He sounds insane. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yockopondowsk Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Not that hard to do. I think Murph means lunatic homer in Swedish. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFunPolice Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 I only watch the games, so I don't hear his entire play by play. However, every clip I hear of him sounds like he's screaming at the top of his lungs, which is a bit hard to listen to 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Everyone needs to listen to other play by play guys just for perspective. If "sounding psychotic" is a turn-off, you're in for shock. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
