No excuse for some of his misses:

"Intercepted by Alabama.....WOW!....Oh - My - Gosh, Nick Saban really....uh,...oh, caught by Shepard".

Come on. Verne is crazy bad.

Your whining about the whiners is more annoying than the whiners' whining about perceived bias. It's not a big deal either way. Just something that people are going to discuss.

Verne's bad.

There's no excuse for him.

We haven't even gotten to all the mispronunciations.

Patterson instead of Peterson (like a dozen times in last year's game)

Holloway instead of Holliday,

Richard Dirkson.

I dont care what they watch the game on, Gary has a history of being very antagonistic towards LSU, it seems to have improved a little after fans were really busting his arse about it on his after game call in show... but it was slipping out during the game... On top of that, I just have always thought his commentary(on any team) is horrible... and Verne, well... he is just his lil side kick... IMO

Maybe it goes back to someone trying to stael his Blazer during an LSU game at Tiger stadium.

Some of you people just look for reasons to be offended.

Verne's day is past, face it.

You can make all the excuses you want for him, but any amateur could get in the booth and do a better job than him. He routinely misses calls, makes bad comments, non sequitors and misjudges intentions, motivations, and perceptions.

What we are seeing on our TV screen happening in real time is the same thing he is seeing, yet he gets it wrong and we get it right. I sometimes want to scream at the TV at him, "what are you looking at"?.

He's Jabba the Hut with a TV show.

Yea, because that's a great and accurate analogy.

Great!!!!! So I can look forward to you calling the game this weekend free of mistakes. I will turn down the sound and listen to you call the game over the phone. What's your number?

I am looking a t a high def 52 inch television. He is not. Do I think Verne is the greatest play by play guy. The answer would no. He makes mistakes. So what?

Sports casters (Verne and Gary) do not watch games on 52 inch high def flat screen televisions and some times get the call wrong. I know this is going to be a shock to some of you.
