Does Anyone Actually Like Tim McCarver
Written by boyd

This is an easy quesion to answer: No.  Not even the family of Tim McCarver likes Tim McCarver.  Ok, I don't actually know that for a fact, but I can guess.

Which brings me to my second point:  Who is the genius making the decisions on who will be announcers or studio show members? Let me remind you of a few people who have landed good gigs in sports broadcasting:

1. Emmitt Smith-you might say "what's wrong with Emmitt, he was a great player?"  And I would reply, "Emmitt barely speaks English."  That's not good in the world of broadcasting.

2. Shannon Sharp- How does this guys keep his job?  Does he have naked pictures of his boss?  I can't understand 40-60% of what he says.

3. Dennis Miller- Now, Dennis is a funny enough guy, but I don't know what the Sword of Damacles has to do with football.  He added nothing to the game but bewilderment for most fans who didn't study 1700's pop culture.

4. Warren Moon- I know, you're asking yourself "what show is Warren Moon on?"  And the answer is none.  No, he does the MNF Radio Broadcasts on Westwood One Radio Stations.  I get off work late so on my drive home, I catch some of the radio broadcasts on Monday evenings.  Let me tell you, Warren Moon is terrible.  It doesn't help that they put him besides the smoothest play-by-play announcer in the world, Marve Albert, but Moon comes off as a stuttering, dim-witted idiot who adds literally nothing to the game.

5. Tim McCarver-I've never watched someone who I consistently disagree with more than McCarver.  He's just a damned fool.  He calls things wrong, makes mistakes on names and facts, and just seems to be watching a different game than I am on almost every occasion.  And here's the thing, I've watched games McCarver has called with at least 5 different people and without fail, by the end of the game, whoever I was watching the game with had disagreed with McCarver several times.  Also, he thinks he's a singer.  Google it.

Well, that's all for today.  Bye.
