People hate Mickey because he is aggressive in his approach, well, Broaddus is just as much, doesn't back down either with his comments. Broaddus is more arrogant in his 'I know more than the other guy, 'cause I watch tape'. Mickey, as he said, watched the game. And Broaddus didn't except his opinion, so he pouted and bickered.

I've been listening to Broadduss for a long time and I've never got that sense at all from him. In fact, he's very self-deprecating about himself and his past scouting failures.

Yes, in this specific case he did pull the "I watched the tape" card, but I didn't have a problem with it in the context of Mickey's tap dancing around the question.

Broaddus is old and just as stubborn. Mickey did watch the game. Why would he need to watch tape?


I'm guessing when he says "tape" he means something like All-22, because you can see things from different angles on the tape that you don't see in real-time watching the game. Even when you rewatch a game broadcast you pick up on different things you didn't see the first time around.

I have listened to Broaddus even before he was on the cowboys talkin' or break shows. When he was on another local radio station. He attacks Mickey just as much. And if anyone questions him about football on twitter, he lashes out.

Well obviously from the angle Mickey saw in the game, he was firm on what he saw.

I was talking about the claim of his supposed arrogance of being a former scout.

You said "Broaddus is more arrogant in his 'I know more than the other guy, 'cause I watch tape'." in post #39 which is what I originally responded to.

Exactly. That's why he was attacking Mickey. I was just pointing out he is arrogant not just on the show, but on twitter when it comes to his football knowledge. Don't know why you can't understand this or why I have to repeat myself.

And what's not registering with you?

I said I've listened to Broadduss for awhile now he doesn't come off as arrogant and doesn't pull the "I watch the tape card" in post #65. Yeah he can be a hot head, but I also follow him on Twitter and jackwads go after him all the time attacking him because he was a former scout.

I'm not asking you to explain or repeat yourself. You just keep doing it.

Does he not self-deprecate calling himself a "failed scout" and say things like "that's why I do a radio show now..." and talk about his past failures? Those aren't the hallmarks of someone arrogant. In fact, I criticize him all the time because he makes bad predications and then apologizes for it....but he apologizes for it.

Broaddus knows his stuff. I remember after lb Jayson Williams was drafted...during camp Brian straight up said that Jayson can't play. People on this board were attacking him but the scout was right.
