I have never liked Brennaman, and he really sucked the other night. I am just sick of most announcers, period. They just say too many stupid things. I have to turn down the sound. The only one that I really like is Brad Nessler.

“Why does Georgia hate America? Because beating Hawaii like this is bad for America.”

Okay, Thom only said the second sentence, but the second one was implied by the rest of his ridiculous rant.

I’ll admit it was bad, but when you take a baseball anouncer, and put him in a shit game like that, you are going to struggle.

Reds in 2008!

At least Thom didn’t refer to the Allies as the Gators…

god they were awful..it was obvious Brennan hadn’t watched a college game all year. The other guy was better but not by much.

The funniest thing all night was all the SEC quarterbacks at the game (Fran, the Snake and Archie) all looked like they had just dropped a hit acid before the game.

Eirishis, #44, thanks for the correction. Two mistakes in the same post. Now I know how the midget Michigan running back felt when he fumbled twice at the 1-yard line yesterday.

Interesting comment regarding Keith Jackson. Why can’t some network just bring him in to be the third man in some sort of meaningless bowl game telecast? Someone could just wake him up during fumbles, kick-offs, and TD’s. Whoa Nellie!

Odell-

Let’s see…Thom’s entire routine last night centered on 1) OMG HAWAI’I IS TOTES AWESOME! and 2) Well, maybe they aren’t, but they try hard and have very interesting backstories!

How, exactly, is this not shilling? This was EXACTLY the FOX party line for this game.

EZ, #46:
You get their dropzone location right (Ste Maire Eglise) right, yet blow the division number? (82nd Airborne, btw) Come on man. I sentece you to 10 games of “Axis and Allies” as penance for your sin.

#45 Edsall, I really enjoyed the interview of Neuheisel at the Rose Bowl. He was really relevant considering he is not coaching, nor will he be coaching, either team that was playing in the game. When Too Cool For School Herbstreit asked Neuheisel to give some coaching advice to Zook I thought that was disrespectful. I would love to see Herbstreit line up against the Zooker. Zooker would eat him for lunch.

#48 – Then keep him in the Nati. He’s so insanely boring and master of the obvious that I wanted to jump out my window and kill myself. But I only have a one story house……….

Someone please photoshop Colt onto that landing vehicle, with a big target on his chest.

I am a Cincinnati Native who loves The Brennaman family. Marty is one of the best baseball announcers in the game and Thom is not that far behind. If we are going to make fun of announcers make fun of Pat Summeral. I was witness to the Thursday night NFL game he called in Cincinnati.

Pat: “The catch by Houshmapudah”
Pat : “Houshmanzilla”
Pat: Houshmanzata
Pat: “Whatever. A guy with a name like that shouldn’t be playing football anyways.”

He was wasted, supposedly being spotted by people at Octoberfest that very afternoon. He did not finish the game.

The Brennamans are opinionated. At least they aren’t a bunch of total corporate pussies.

If anything bitch about “jumper” being forced down your throat during the damn game.

Call on Thom. We love you in the Nati. And Pat Summeral calling hte cotton bowl was horrible.

Charles Davis predicts that the 82nd Airborne scattered all around Ste. Marie Eglise is going to go with a run/pass option play.

40 – Amen brother! As a pretty avid baseball fan, it drives me crazy how guys like Joe Buck are ALWAYS talking. Yet, the local announcers for the Mets or Red Sox let the game do the talking and then discuss it for a bit without overdoing it.

It’s even more annoying in football because, dude, there’s just not that much to say. When you watched Joe McKnight flying down the field in the Rose Bowl, I don’t need Herbie telling me how good he is in space. Fuck dude, I’M GOOD IN SPACE! Show the game, show the replays and keep your mouth shut.

And I would also like to never, ever again here an in-game interview with the announcers or an interview with the parents of a player as the game is going on. I actually turned off the Capital One Bowl when that dickwad Rodriguez was being interviewed…only to get the Cotton Bowl interviewing that slimebucket Petrino.

I ended up watching hockey. I was so high I swore they were playing in a snow globe.
