Broaduss vs. Mickey

[CalPolyTechnique]

I'd enjoy talking football over a beer with Broaddus.

I'm guessing Broadduss would enjoy being drunk and hitting on a bunch of 20 somethings.

You're probably right. I remember him slobbering all over the DC cheerleader that used to be on the show.

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.

His Twitter feed is hilarious. You can definitely sense the mid-50 year old divorced guy vibe with all his "likes" of these random young chicks baiting him for retweets.

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.

Mickey any day over that hack Broaddus who nobody would hire to scout a Burger King squad

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.

Broaduss and Spags = Smarter by not listening.

I’ll come to my own conclusions.

Make your own conclusions but it's good to hear guys who are with the team 8-16 hours a day.

That's why I said someone questioning his football knowledge.

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.

 

[MRV52]

Both Broaddus and Mickey are bums. Don't listen to these fools.

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.

Broaddus has taught me so much about the game over the years. He may not be for everyone, but I appreciate what he brings.

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.

Sounds like u need to watch some tape.

I DONT NEED TO WATCH THE TAPE! I WATCHED THE GAME!!!!!!!

 

[jobberone]

If I get enough likes I'll pretend to care about this thread.

Watching the EaGirls game with Risen doesn't count.

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.
