[QUOTE="ronny, post: 1378110, member: 8853"] Virtually all football (and other sports) sportcasters suck, primarily because they think, or have been told, that it is up to them to make the game exciting. They've lost, if they ever had, the ability to accept the game for it's own excitement and to report it as it happens. Their job should be to tell us that which isn't obvious, keep us informed as to what's happening off the field of play and explain the issues as they come up. Invariably, when a team has momentum, it's the greatest team since they first made sliced bread. Then, if the other team begins to get the upper hand, they get all the accolades. Remove the words "great", "huge" and any word with "est" at the end of it and they wouldn't have anything to say. Sorry for the rant. It's your fault. I didn't start this thread. [/QUOTE]
