I like CB, but I don’t like listening to his call. IMO, he tries to give to many ancillary details before saying what actually happened. For example, listening to him call the basketball game the other night we shot the ball, and it was literally a minute before he said whether the shot went in or not. And it’s constant. My son and I listened while on the way home for about 30 mins. Extremely hard to follow what actually is going on.. Just call the game and after let the details come out in between.

Agree with this. No one needs the entire picture of exactly what happened. He tries to shove too much information in. Takes away from big calls.

Hawthorne wasn't bad at basketball, he kept up with the action. But yeah he got annoying in football the past 10 years or so, you had to listen to 30 seconds of complaining before knowing whether it was a catch/1st down/touchdown/anything.

Does the same thing with first downs and yards gained. I mean, for any play you need to know either how many yards were gained and whether they got or how close they are to a 1st down. He'll make you wait until the start of the next fricking play to find out.
