Anyone have a link to Henderson's call on the final play?

Good lord you people are masochists.

I'd almost rather listen to a 911 death call.

Haven't heard it yet and I have no desire to change that. I'd rather listen to rap.

He said: “This is not Atlanta man!”

They played it to start Moscona today.
Actually not that bad

Thank you for summarizing. I was curious enough to want to know what was said but not enough to actually listen to it. Now, I don't have to put myself through that.

I'm sad to say that Henderson seems to have finally lost it.

He's shown a lack of enthusiasm throughout the year on big plays. And, while that play was anything but positive, Henderson's call was very subdued...certainly not representative of the importance.

Henderson gets to stay as long as he wants to. But, I'm afraid father time has finally caught up.

I think Henderson has become content. In 2009 he was nearly crying after Hartley kicked the game winner against the Vikings. He was ecstatic during the Tracy Porter int to seal the SB victory. Winning that Superbowl makes playoff losses a little easier to swallow. Plus 2009 just had that feeling we were gonna win it all. Matter of fact I think Henderson predicted the saints would win the SB that preseason. I just didn't have that feeling about the team this year especially after all the injuries they sustained during the season.

He has not only lost every single ounce of enthusiasm for the Saints that he once had, he has lost enthusiasm for play by play in general.

I listened to most of the Panthers playoff game b/c I was driving to Detroit, and he would literally never spot the ball. It was Jim Hawthorne-esque (you could never be as bad as late Hawthorne, but Hendo is getting fairly close).

Never says "driving right to left" to give you a visual, rarely recaps "2nd and 3" before the start of a play, but instead leaves you to gather the down and distance from his initial impression of the yards gained on the previous play.

Deuce is mediocre to put it gently, and Deuce is a better asset in the booth than Jim is now.

I can't believe I'm typing all of this, because I would have fought you to the death in 2008 if you had told me that Jim Henderson was not a top 5 NFL radio guy.
