My first thought as well. He is a competition and adrenaline junkie. It was a challenge at first and he went all in to be the best. Now, the challenge is gone and he doesn't get the same rush from calling games so slacking off a bit is just human nature.
Me too, I'm focused on the game. I don't need much from the commentators.
Lol, why would he do that? Do you know what it is like to be a coach and what it does to your family?
Good deal, thanks!
I did a thread about him, and I got slammed. I think he is the worst.
Excellent point, sir.
Why do I care? Because it applies here and because human tendencies are sometimes funny to observe and point out. It's also funny that those tendencies will continue even after pointing them out.
Yeah, that hasn't been talked about much but Michaels has really fallen off. It's almost like he has a different vantage point in the stadiums this season and he can't follow the action as closely as in the past. Or maybe father time is creeping in and his reaction time is going. He's also subdued when calling exciting action too. Worst year I've heard out of him.
This. It's actually hilarious as TR fed the fans filet mignon his first few years broadcasting as other broadcasters kept feeding fans the usual burgers and dogs because that is actually all they have to offer in football knowledge. Lately TR dumbs it down with a few burgers and dogs of his own and now a few fans feel mistreated. TR knows more about NFL football than 100% of any fan and probably 98% of all past and present NFL players. TR keep doing what you're doing and laugh all the way to the bank and golf course. You deserve a nice retirement and let the detractors eat cake.
Love your comment! Couldn't have come close to saying it as good.
he clearly has other things that are just important to him... i.e. attempting to go to the PGA
How about the sideline reporters asking the HC how he's going to stop the bleeding in a beatdown? The reporters and the HC's both seem to like that sooooooo much.
