This week’s excellence in broadcasting goes to Tom Hammond. We accept it is your duty as an NBC announcer to play as much the role of propagandist as it is to actually call the game, but really: is calling Donovan Warren juvenile names while he’s down on the ground in the endzone fair?
F(l)ag is down in the endzone! Sensitivity classes all around, NBC.
Orson Swindle and Stranko Montana are two men pushing thirty who should know better than to run a college football blog, but evidently don't. Both graduated from the University of Florida, and both agree that college football is far too important to be left to the professionals.

Yes. You should be happy you have your own network.
Although for everyone’s sake, a Philbin/Holtz booth would be epic.

The song is full of shit. ND fans, at least the thousands I’ve encountered, can’t stand Hammond.

Can’t agree more that Haden and Hammond are a cataclysm of suck. Don’t criticize them on a Notre Dame message board, however, or you’ll feel the wrath of 1,000 “You should just be happy we get all the home games on national TV!” comments. Those people are obviously morons. Just because the game is on national TV doesn’t forgive the horrible announcing, shitty production value and 4+-hour home field advantage-killing game time. Seriously, Haden and Hammond have one fucking job in the fall, and that is Notre Dame football. You would think they could at least be bothered to learn the roster or even have a general idea of the races of the players (two years ago, Hammond referred to George West, who is black, as Chase Anastasio, who is white and a really terrible football player who was never on the field anyway; how the fuck does that even happen to anyone who is paying attention?).
Hallelujah! Holy shit, where’s the Tylenol?

Agreed with all the previous ND comments. The NBC broadcast team is awful. Hammond even sucks at Olympic track and field, and Hayden isn’t much better.

#5 - JIMMY Clausen is still paying for the picture of him and his fellas in speedos. He’s not really gay and/or that picture was a fark, right? NTTAWWT

that was funny, but the female sideline reporter’s comment both teams had been practicing all week with “wet, slippery balls” (insert jimmy clausen joke) became a running joke all day.

And each year, on All Hammonds Eve, the magical floating head appears to all of the bad boys and girls in the land. Dreaded be those who witness the pink sheen of its forehead!

Hammond is the worst announcer on the planet. Most of the time he has no idea what is even going on the field.

Look, ND fans do NOT like Hammond. We would kill for a good announcer.
And his face, it scares me.
