If it's so fricking obvious why is it that the majority of LSU fans and more importantly the people that pay him cant see it?

Fixed it KJI - Hope you don't mind



No problem! Why is it that some of us can't criticize JH without being called names? I don't get it.

And you are entitled to your opinion. I will not call you names because you like him.

Just winging it here but maybe the administration is satisfied with mediocrity? I mean look at the likes of Kevin Ford, or more importantly our football head coach?

I personally could not do any better, but it's not my job, nor do I profess to know everything about everything on the air. Don't criticize those of us who "have a want" for the absolute best in everything, including LSU athletics.

Nothing wrong with Jim


Nobody said there is anything wrong with Jim the person. He is just a bad baseball announcer.

The man works yr round


Most people work year round.

travels year round


That is part of the job, I think.

quote:

sees LSU players in his sleep.


I don't care to know what he does in his personal life, much less in his sleep.

quote:

He makes a mistake now and then


He makes a mistake every few minutes during baseball broadcasts.

quote:

Who in the frick doesn't?


I've never seen anyone say that nobody else makes mistakes. And just to save you the time......Yes, I make mistakes at work. I'm held accountable for them.

quote:

We just have guys here who love to bitch and tear down things


Nice blanket statement by you without having any idea what you're talking about. You can't address any of the factual information so you just make shite up and place blame on someone else. It isn't Jim's fault for fricking up all the time, it is my fault for noticing or posting about it...right?

quote:

It makes them feel better about themselves, I guess


See above.

quote:

They complain and bitch more that most women I know


Then you obviously don't know many women, which isn't really that big of a surprise.

Because they don't give a shite, don't know any better, or a combination of both. Easy question.

YES. The guys for CSS may not have been the greatest at calling a baseball game, but at least they were professional.

Thanks. I am successful at what I do, I don't criticize things all day, and it doesn't make me feel better to criticize JH. I just don't think he is good.

In other words, you can't dispute any of it.

I just laugh at it, to be honest with you. Listening to today's game, I noticed on quite a few occasions where he made a call and I was like...."what?"

Tonight when LSU is batting he goes, "high fly ball...................foul out of play behind the plate". LOL. I was following the game on here in GMorgans pbp then decided to go sit outside and listen on the radio and it took forever for him to finally update the score and that wasn't until the end of the inning. So I started paying attention to how often he gives the score and, IMO, it's no where near enough.

Anyway, he does a better job than I could ever do so I just bear with it.

Someone made a good point earlier....just be thankful that you CAN hear.

Do know it all clowns listen to every fricking word out of your mouth, pick out the mistakes, and post it for neat-picking sessions because they have nothing better to do?

Are you for fricking real? What factual information have you given in this post. None...just shitty opinion from a guy who doesn't like the job a play by play guy does.

Get a life or get laid because you sound like a woman on the rag.

I think he's talking about all the mistakes, which are in fact made, by JH.

I am not going to fight his battles for him, but this is what I am talking about. I too think that JH is bad. Can't I voice that opinion without being called names?
