These Annoying announcers suck

[Seahawkfan80]

I mean really really do suck. They are pushing the Vegas crapola.

Terrible, absolutely terrible. Rambling on about frivolous crap. Also Fox has the crowd background noise so high that you can't understand what these idiots are saying

 

[Ad Hawk]

Maybe the crowd noise is a blessing in disguise.

That's a good thing. I can't stand listening to Karen. She looks like the kind of woman that would be the president of the HOA , telling you that you can't have 3 cars in your drive way.

Only after she drinks a bottle of shitty Chardonnay

I kinda loved the color-commentator dude excitedly shouting "he gave him the stiffie" on McIntosh's big run. And he wasn't done. "As a defender, you never want to get the stiffie."

He's better than Aikman. And the woman doing the real-time narration is better than Joe (dum)B(f)uck. And let me make it more explicit, for those who might not get what I'm saying. Yes, that is definitely a very low bar.

Wow. Now we're started complaining about preseason announcers?
Who gives a sh**?
I don't even give a sh** about the regular season announcers.

I couldn't disagree with you any more than I do. Thank you for your opinion though.
I value hearing from everyone on dotnet.

I really dislike listening to Mr concussion Clay Aikman. That my friend is torturous .

I really didn't have a problem with the banter, pretty typical for a game...

My issue is her voice, YUCK! She sounds so "Pat" from Mad TV? Just a voice you couldn't tell for sure if she's male or female if you didn't already know. I've rarely heard voices I would say "sound gay" but she does (not that there's anything wrong with that!) The other guy was OK, but if I have a female announcer, or male for that matter I prefer they have a good "radio voice", not that lady, god I really did not enjoy listening to her. Sad too cuz not really her fault, and she seemed to know her stuff, but IMO, just wasn't built for the job.

I'd say if I heard that woman on the phone my assumption would be that it was a teenage boy whose voice was just about to change fully.

you know the "other guy" is Mikerob right?

 

[SeAhAwKeR4life]

Who is Mikerob? I just figured he was some former player, did not pay particular attention to who.

Nevermind. Looked him up, yeah barely recall him as a Seahawk. The only fullback that ever comes to mind in Seahawks history is Mack Strong, and why would any other?

I think Franco Harris was listed as a Fullback with the Steelers, but I'm not sure if the position was the same then as it is now.

 

[AROS]

Michael Robinson...Used to do the Real Rob Report...Now he's a regular on NFL Network. Cool cat, decent player for us. Has a SBXLVIII ring.

you gotta be intentionally trolling at this point otherwise you didn't pay much attention to the SB yrs because Mike Rob was Lynch's "handler" and right hand guy in a way.

I'm pretty sure you meant (and I was definitely talking about) Troy Aikman, the awful color commentator who won some Super Bowls as QB of the Cowboys.

Anyway, it looks like you somehow got out of that that I was praising Aikman. I wasn't. I was saying the dude doing color commentary on last night's Seahawks preseason game, the one who called a stiffarm "the stiffie" and thus at least gave me a chuckle, is very green (and now I'll add that his "stiffie" comments aren't going to help him) but he's still better than Aikman. It's a really low bar.

Similarly, I don't think the woman who was doing the real-time narration of the game is going to go very far as an NFL game announcer, but she's still better than Joe (dum)B(f)uck. Again, it's a really low bar.

 

[RiverDog]

Outside of the nuts and bolts of a TV broadcast, ie players names, down and distance, et al, I've gotten to the point where I don't comprehend what the announcers are talking about. I sort of screen out the chaff and just listen to the important stuff. I do the same thing with commercials. Half the time I couldn't tell you what they were about 30 seconds after they're over.

Nooooo, not at all. I was hating Aikman with you.lol

We're cool

For as bad as the preseason announcers were, I’d much rather listen to them the hear Cris Collinsworth blather on and on about nothing.
