Arizona Cardinals Announcer Comments

[KB1122]

Was it the Macho Man wrestling announcer guy that's always on Homer Call of the Week?

 

[sacase]

I was laughing the whole time. I liked him, it was fun, you just couldn't take it to serious. He was a hell of a lot better than the Raiders announcers.

 

[Picksix]

"it's like trying to throw spam in a can."

"yeah, I'm gonna say it [about Mathieu] - Troy Polamalu."

"time for some Imodium AD"

"here's the blender, here's the tomato."

"he's a flagpole with eyebrows."

"a booty bomb just went off, didn't it?"

"you want to bring the booty, you don't want it to get brought on you."

"he looks like a centaur."

"he could have raked his face with the shoulder block."

"Tom Moore - the Quarterback Whisperer. Whispering in the ear of Peyton Manning for 14 years - well, 12 years."

"that's what you wanna see - lickity jingle!"

"ooooh the Honey Badger! Had the spidey sense going!"

"man, look at Harris...got the dreads going."

"look at the OH the little Barry Sanders right there!" -- talking about the Cardinals 428th string RB.

"I don't think there's any question the Arizona Cardinals are going to lead the league in 12 personnel - one back, two tight ends."

"I tell ya. We're gonna see redzone, redzone, redzone."

"Back in the old days they used to slap ya around a little bit - smelling sauce. Like 'cmon kid, cmon!'"

"You want your center to be brrrright."

Then there was the replay of the umpire falling down after placing the ball, "Here you have the grinder, and right here you got the sausage."

I loved the guy. Made the Raiders guy look like ****. He was not a homer and commented on each play according to its merit.

 

[roy31]

He sounded like Deirdorfs dumb brother

You're right. He was definitely more tolerable than Plunkett and Flores. Glad our last two games are at home, so we get our own announcers.

 

[Muhast]

Yea, I was laughing out loud a few times. The "flagpole with eyebrows" and calling Minter a Centaur was pretty funny. Drawing on the teleprompter and saying "Heres the blender and heres the tomato" etc. Probably the funniest commentary I've heard on a game in years.

 

[roy31]

Here's the grinder and here's the sausage. What??

 

[big dog cowboy]

Possibly the worst called game I've ever heard. Just awful.

 

[Idgit]

He grew on me. Throwing spam in a can made me laugh.

Me, too.

 

[Kaiser]

As someone pointed out in the chat room he sounds like Jessie the body Ventura..lol..

I thought of Ventura at the very beginning of the game and then couldn't get it out of my head. He was kind of funny though, it was like watching Jesse Ventura do a take off on the SNL "Da Bears" skit.

 

[RoyTheHammer]

I thought that guy was funny as hell

Same here.. i enjoyed the broadcasters this week. At least they were realistic, gave the Cowboys credit where it was due and weren't complete homers like the Raiders guys were.

The guy sounded like Jesse Ventura a bit at times, haha.. i thought it was hilarious.

 

[CowboyStar88]

Sorry I just couldn't take this guy. I wish I had ear plugs or was able to hear the Cowboys commentators

 

[Cowboysfan1975]

I made a comment to my wife, during the game that the announcers suck, but I thought maybe it was just me hating on the team playing the Cowboys. Guess not.

 

[coult44]

At one point I thought I was listening to Randy Macho Man Savage, or some other WWF star.

 

[AshyLarry06]

That dude was NOT funny at ALL. He was annoying as **** and i was pulling my hair out listening to his idiotic puns, cliches, and "jokes". The worst was when he started going off about the referee names. I don't even remember what they were, I just remember thinking about how terribly painful the rest of the game was going to be if i had to continue hearing that asinine toddler's cheap commentary...

 

[AZ_Cowboys_Fan]

That's Ron Wolfley. I live in Phoenix so I hear him on the radio every day as he does sports talk during the week as well. It took a while for him to grow on me but I find the guy hilarious even though he obviously makes some dumb *** comments.

My biggest problem with them was that they talked almost exclusively about the Cardinals. I know, I know -- that's their job. They're Cardinals broadcasters but it still really separates the quality from a national team, whose job is to each week know (or learn) a decent amount about each team. These guys had opinions on Romo, Bryant and pretty much nobody else.

 

[VACowboy]

Nobody could be that fake/bad over-the-top.

He was pretty stupid, but I'll take him any day over the ridiculous Oakland homers we got last week.

 

[CoCo]

I kept thinking it was David Puddy from Seinfeld - but Jess Ventura & Dierdorf's dumb brother work too. He started out ok to me but just over did his attempts to be cutesy. By the 4th quarter I had the sound on for PBP and then muted til the next play. I've never done that before.

And give me the Oakland guys all day before I have to listen to this guy again.
