Stanley Lombardi Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 He attempts to convey drama with sheer volume, and his quips are prefabricated. Bring back Murph. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glab: "f***ing a**hole" Makes me think this Mattie Glab person is okay, she has chutzpah, it would be a land mark duo those two, 😁👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday, he actually said the yard line..”..on the Bills 38..”..but thankfully Wood in his color commentary surreptitiously mentioned the ball was on the Commanders 41. I don’t care if he is excitable or not…but at least get the basics down. At least am not getting Murph’s..”..BIG hole on the right side!!!…stopped after a gain of about a yard…” Edited September 26, 2023 by ControllerOfPlanetX 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If "sounding psychotic" is a turn-off, you're in for shock. Yeah yeah yeah we know. Touchdown! Kansas City. Touchdown………Raiders…. But someone like Jim Donovan also yells, but it’s a much smoother delivery, without the “he’s hotter than a firecracker!” Merrill Reese comes to mind with the iconic voices. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PauleeeWalnuts Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 His voice goes through my head like a spike. I’d take Murph back any day TBH, CB sounds like he’s calling a high school game and he’s one of the students. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You hear the clips if you are driving around listening to SiriusXM NFL Radio on Sunday...I cringe at 95% of the touchdown calls. 100% this.

Van Miller, Jeanneret and even Ted Darling spoiled me. As sainted as Rick Jenneret was, EVERY and I mean EVERY damn time a Sabre crossed the blue line his voice went up 4 octaves and 20 decibels! EVERY. DAMN. TIME. That was huge annoying to me.......especially during game 78 in one of the many many rebuilding seasons...... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like a hopped up Gus Johnson, without the intelligence. That’s a good analogy. It reminds of some college hockey broadcasts I listen to. The student announcers try to sound like Rick Jeanette at a “10” the entire broadcast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roundybout Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 You like him? He’s irritating as hell. He doesn’t need to go FULL SHOUTING on a pass breakup on 3rd down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bklnpete Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 (edited) I listen to One Bills Drive with Brown and Tasker. If there's a voice out there that makes me cringe it's not Brown's; It's the Stans from "Chic-towaga" or the Joes from Elma or all the Daves from the Southtowns that call in. Love Bills fans, cringe at the accents. Edited September 26, 2023 by bklnpete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shemp Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 8 hours ago, thenorthremembers said: I really couldn't care less who does the radio call. Just wondering why Murph gets little to no love from the fans? He was a good Sports Director at WKBW but that didn't translate as a natural pbp man. He kept repeating the same phrases -- "the snaaap" -- and when the play called for excitement, his voice strains and he just doesn't have the pipes.

Da webster guy Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 i like all announcers that are bills fans. loved kelso and murph, Van (duh), and Brownie has great enthusiasm and knows the team better than anyone so he's good for me too. Eric Wood is awesome in broadcast and mondays on WGR. now i need to figure out how to synch the radio with the tv so i can listen to these guys instead of the TV weenies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
