Last night was my first night really listening to him call a game. It seemed like he had just written up several over the top one-liners that came out terribly rehearsed. Was awful.

Actually made me nostalgic for Verne & Gary.

He made reference to someone being put on a cross like Jesus.

Very awkward to me.

He’s near or at the bottom. Absolutely awful. Whines way too much for my liking.

So does he. You're both wrong.

It’s wild that you can’t make a joke about a drug addicted deadbeat ODing while being arrested without people freaking out.

But you can make a light of….literally God being tortured to death for saying he is God and healing people.

Yes. I hope everyone enjoyed my cornball jokes last night. My career is progressing rapidly and I thank everyone for their support and all the haters for the free promo.

Go Baylor Bears !

He is quickly giving Beth Mowins a run for her money as the worst.

The sheer lack of awareness to compare a tackle to the crucifixion of Jesus on an ESPN broadcast. astounding.

Makes every game worse. If you're not a good color commentator, at least be neutral and don't detract from the actual game.

He’s not as bad as Tony Romo.

I don't think he's good, but my standards come from a time when we didn't have 50 games being aired on a Saturday.
