re: Rest of the world realizing how bad Gary is

I agree, he does know his stuff, and he does have a love fest for Little Nicky and Bama.

He knows football, but he doesn’t cook up all that shite on his own in the moment. He’s not Ron Burgundy, but damn! Wake up. CBS pays a lot of money for the rights to run SEC games. Danielson is just familiar, like a hot girlfriend that got fat and went psycho, and you’re just keeping her around because you’re too lazy to go through the process of finding a new one.
The CBS contract is monetary dog shite compared to ESPN dollars. My issue with Gary is about 8+ years ago he started "seeing" things during plays that never never occurred on the field and called his own biased version as true. He has been down hill since then, I can't stand to listen to him no matter what games he is calling. He should have retired 5+ years ago and glad he is gone with the CBS contract. Tell me what his winning percentage was QB'ing the Lions...

Not a fan of Gary but he is knowledgeable.
But he was talking more about the porous OM offensive line in that instance.

Rest of the world is largely ignorant. Gary is the best in the biz.

I’m definitely in the minority here. But I can honestly say I rarely even listen to what these guys are saying. Do I hear them talking? Of course. But I’m not paying attention to shite they’re saying most of the time, much less getting offended from it.
And as someone else pointed out, yes Danielson does slob on nick/bama but he is very knowledgeable and he he sees plays as they lineup. But he was here all week watching them practice formations/situations etc, so he does his homework as well.

Lol. Nothing more telling about the collective ignorance of this board than the constant bitching and moaning about every announcer in the business.

don’t think he’s biased against LSU, I just think that’s this board’s inferiority complex.
This board thinks anyone who makes a negative comment about LSU is biased against us.
Herbie was the whipping boy for a long time.

I don’t like watching the games with Gary because one of my brothers and some of my friends I usually watch the games with look for any Gary misstep. As soon as Gray says something they don’t like then I have to listen to their complaining about Gray which is 10X worse.
Color commentators rarely bother me like it apparently bothers some people. They have zero impact on the game so I just block them out for the most part.
One thing that bothers me is when radio guys get the simple math wrong while painting a picture for the radio audience. As much as I liked listening to Jim Hawthorn he did get the math wrong a lot and I found that to be aggravating.

What the hell does having played football have anything to do with Danielson being good or bad at commentating.... other than you can guarantee he'd get your name wrong if you didn't play for bama.

I take it the opposite. A slight against Kiffin for having Dart in there and still dropping him back to pass.
This is exactly what he meant. It was obvious, and only someone with an inferiority complex would take it as a knock on LSU.

So long as it’s not Beth Mowins.

Gary knows and is able to quickly and intelligently explain football. His Bama love is annoying, but he almost always adds value.
Agreed. He studies both teams’ film a lot and knows the game well.

Lol why do you think it’s necessary to “strap on a helmet” to have an opinion about a commentator?
That’s a really dumb comment.

Amen brother. Isn't Mowens ESPN? Wait till some of these guys have to sit thru listening to that. The melt will be epic.

Kids who are overly self indulgent.
You're getting a football game with 2-3 people commenting, you're not going to like everything and everyone. Be happy you get to watch every fricking game on TV.
Waahhh.. "he doesn't like us"
Danielson is one of the more knowledgeable color guys, but he hurts feelings.

When it was Gary and Verne on the 3:30 EST CBS games I would purposely mute if I was the only one watching.
Absolutely the worst commentator experience possible.
At least Verne is gone but Gary is still easily one of the worst out there. Way way past the time him needing to hang it up.
Josh Pate would make helluva SEC commentator based on his lat ekick show he runs on 247 (owned by CBS). Dude is incredibly knowledgable and loves him some SEC football. Very straight shooter.

Decades ago you got one or two games televised a year, and had to listen to the Tigers on the radio most Saturdays. With every game televised who cares about the announcers, you can watch the games in High Definition, get replays, etc.

Gary was a light early on. Now a very dim bulb. Just not as sharp anymore.
