CBS Announcing Crew

Is there a worse announcing crew than stupid Jim Nantz and horribly bad Billy Packard? They were announcing the Big Ten Championship game today (nice job bucks!!!) and I almost turned it off they were so bad.

First they spent about 3 minutes arguing...yes, arguing...about whether or not the Tournament committee has the time to make last minute changes. It is a legitimate question. They just didn't need to badger each other for 3 minutes while a basketball game is going on.

Another theme throughout the game was who would be named the #1 seed overall. They had arguments, made cases, and went generally overboard about. BECAUSE IT DOESN'T MATTER!!!!!! It makes no difference who the #1 overall seed is. They still have to play a #16 seed and will win. It literally makes no difference. I don't know why they even do it at all...it's stupid.

What is worse is having to listen to that blowhard Nantz and the grouch Packard rant at each other for 2 hours.

They both need to be removed from announcing duties...put in someone more likable. Even Ron Artest is more likable than these two clowns.

XLI Observations

Well...the Super Bowl has finally come and gone. Now I am sad because football is over and I don't know what to do. I suppose I could do something productive with the hours and hours per week I spend watching and reading about football. I'll probably just find something else to involve myself in. Anyway...here are my observations

• Manning finally won his big game. Hopefully everyone will now shut up about his inability to win a big game. I doubt it though...my guess is that most people will comment on how he has not won 2 rings...and therefore is a garbage quarterback.



• Tony Dungy won his big game. Again, this is wonderful because we finally have a black coach who won the super bowl. As I have commented before, this is excellent because it will finally give black people more options and potential in professional sports. Professional athletics is such a white dominated thing. Although...now black coaches are only .500 in Super Bowls, and that's not very good. I would be concerned that only half of them can ever get to the summit.



• Rex Grossman is easily the worst QB I have ever seen. Not even the worst QB in a Super Bowl. Grossman is worse than Chris Weinke and Gino Torreta. If I were a Bears fan, I would be demanding they draft a QB or bring one in through Free Agency. That dude is terrible.



• I strongly disdain Jim Nantz. Every time he says a word the hair on my neck stands up. I feel that is some sort of warning that I should avoid him at all costs. I can't though...I have to listen to his smug, pompous "commentating" in every single TV event ever. I think he is going to try to take over the world, I wouldn't put it past him. One arrogant verb at at time.



• Peter King reports that some Bengals were out at 5am the night before and night after. I have no reason to believe this is not true, except there were no reports of arrests this morning. I assume a Bengals player can't be out until 5am without getting sleep. Therefore, it's probably safe to say they were all at home, in bed, by 11:30pm.

Only 2.5 months until the draft!!!
