The announcers weren’t great. Let me say that first off. But I find it continually embarrassing and funny at once that the people on this board don’t understand how television works. First of all, the announcers don’t “choose” what segments are going to be run. The producers are producing the show- they cook this all up before the broadcast was ever on TV. This was all pre-programmed and preplanned. The announcers just have to read the script, they literally have zero to do with preplanned puff piece segments.

My favorite mess up was when Our guy got called for targeting, and it was overturned. Those two goobers were incredulous that that was overturned.

Criticism of people who happen to be a certain race isn't racism.


It is when you throw in terms like “DEI hire” for someone who clearly has the background to be qualified for the job. Maybe he’s not good at it but there have been plenty of white dudes who got the same jobs who were bad at it too and I don’t recall anyone throwing around terms like “DEI hire”. Nobody calls Dan Mullen (who has the personality of a wet sock) a “good ole boy” hire.

Just accept that racism exists (and yes it can be from ANYONE of any race) and that perhaps there are people here who are.

You seem to be fricking retarded so I’ll type more slowly. Roddy White was not one of the announcers. Roddy Jones was. He was the color guy, not the play by play guy. He was flat out awful, but I don’t know how he feels about white people.

Mark Jones was the play by play guy and he’s very outspoken about his hated of white people. And while not the reason he was hired, it’s definitely the reason he hasn’t been fired.

Do we just yell “DEI!” anytime we see a black guy do anything now?


In a word, yes. But I will say I would
be thrilled if I never had to hear Mark Jones and his thesaurus ever again.

The continual droning on about the targeting no call was bad.

You need to calm tf down sir. I asked for context — You said “fkn google it”. I googled the wrong name.

Maybe next time, save us both 10 minutes & just provide a little fkn context lmao.

You don’t know the difference between a play by play guy and a color commentator, but you think I’m the problem here?

No amount of context was going to make you understand what I was saying.

If your on the field offense or defense you better be ready to knock someone's head off if not that's what happens.

My only issue was if Daniels had delivered the hit to a defender it would have been a 15 yd penalty & the announcers would have been all for it.

Dan Mullen was a “good ole boy” hire. So were Brady and Brees. There is a much longer list of names, but I probably blocked them from my memory due to their terrible-ness.
