    WORST-EVER ESPN Announcers strike again.....

    These weekday guys are just brutal.....I was watching the Buffalo/Miami,OH game last night and the same crew that totally biffed on the OU/Temple game was paired again...Ray Bentley and whatever his name is "just stick to American Gladiators guy"......

    Near the end of the OU/Temple game......el stupido numero dos actually said that OU could just run the ball to get into position for a field goal with time running out...the problem was the Bobcats trailed by 4 points!

    Well here are some even brighter comments from the UB/MU-OH game:

    Scenario: UB on Miami's 47 yard line 3rd and 10:
    A dropped pass at the Miami 32...."it would not have been enough for the first down anyway"....WTF...it would have been a gain of 15 yards!

    Scenario: Buffalo drives for an apparent TD in a scrum at the goal line:
    Bentley: "that looks like a TD on the replay"
    Stupido: "If not, then that ball is certainly on the line (goal line)".....sheesh, I thought a ball on the goal line was a TD dumbass. Guess they changed the rules this year!

    Scenario: Miami ball, 3rd and 10 on the UB 31 yard line"
    Stupido: "It's third and ten just INSIDE the 30 yard line"......NO, I believe it's outside the 30 yard line....the 29 would be considered INSIDE the 30 yard line....

    Scenario: Buffalo runs and fake punt and gets a first down:
    Bentley: "That's good recognition from tapes or SOMETHING"......Now WTF would the something be....a coach from Miami telling them what to run....


    :puke: :puke: :puke: Is anybody else sick of watching these guys......I quit watching in the 2nd quarter and just peeked in from time to time to see what the score was......
    Batman: "If you can't spend it, money's just a lot of worthless paper, isn't it?" :phew:

      I couldnt agree with you more JoePa, Iv'e watched these MAC tuesday night showcase games and it seems to me that the student broadcast journalism guests do a better job than these guys!

      I sit at home watching these games and hollar at the television when Dumb and Dumber throw out another wonderful "stupidism"

      They also had a moment last night near the end of the game where Bentley was talking about the Miami "Seahawks" arent they the Red-Hawks??????!!!!!!! You would think they could at least get the team names correct.

      I did however like the fact that Dumb called out Dumber last week on the kick the 4 point field goal for a tie comment when he said that "they're down by four, last time I checked my math a field goal won't help them right now."

      These guys make me wish for Dennis Miller to make it back to the broadcast booth!

          Ya know I thought it was just me. But these guys are Horrifik. I didn't pay to much attention to the game last night but I heard a couple things that just didn't make sense.

          On another note, is it just me or is anybody else tired of the ridiculous texting on the top of the screen. A perfect match to complete the horrible product they put on screen. Cu mon ESPN cant do better than that? :bang:

              Not to be morbid, but the guy that killed himself in minnesota. I think his name was adrian karstens? He was horrible.

              Theres another guy, I have no idea who he is, but he's horrible too.

                  But Joe Pa, for dumb asses they got pretty faces for TV:bang: LOL
                  The ugly ones(who know the game inside out) are on relegated to radio where they can be heard but not seen. I did high school and Div. III college football for 20 years on the radio-- so you know I'm uglier than heck.
                  If I had a head full of hair I could've gone far.LOL:thumbs:
