Gosselin had another nice year.

So does a 3 year old boy.

I don't know why Goose isn't on ESPN sitting with those guys instead of Kiper.

IMO, he's not a great TV personality. Kiper isn't great either, but he's moreso than Goose.

Plus, he can't analyize and tell you about players. He can't look at film and say "this player can do X, Y, and Z, and has A, B, and C attributes."

He just knows what teams tell him.

He does fine when he talked to Norm, but you are probably right....he may have trouble doing it off the cuff about everyplayer asked about on live TV.

Remember, we are talking TV here. Appearence will always trump competence.

That doesn't surprise me at all. Congrats Goose!

Goose has the time to put in at crunch time to find out from sources who's hot and who's not, which teams are hot for certain players, etc.

Funny that he was off base with the Cowboys and Spencer.

However, the guys who sit on ESPN during the draft, guys like Kiper, spend their entire year, their entire careers, studying film and collecting data and getting to know guys.

When it comes to a mock draft or knowing if someone will be a ProBowler or a Bust, Kiper doesn't know any more than anyone else, but it's hard to find someone any better at talking about any kid you name, rounds 1-7 and free agency...he has all the stats, high school and college stats, stories, blah blah blah on the tip of his tongue...that's what makes him unique and interesting, along with his firey personality when he was younger and having TV fights with Polian, etc....he's calmed down a lot as he's gotten older, but he can still spout out tons of information without notes. And it was funny when he could even question some of McShay's comments on those goofy little faceoffs because he also knew everything about McShay's rankings....lol.

Kiper didn't do all that bad either. IMO, the annoying twit takes an unfair amount of heat, mostly by jealous wannabees.
