SLAYER Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Anybody else find it mildly interesting that the NFL Network is broadcasting a college bowl game tonite. I'm pretty sure the announcers will be clueless about the teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursa Majoris Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Anybody else find it mildly interesting that the NFL Network is broadcasting a college bowl game tonite. I'm pretty sure the announcers will be clueless about the teams. One of the teams IS clueless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hat Trick Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Pretty sure they did this last year as well if I am remembering correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skylive5 Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 I'm pretty sure the announcers will be clueless about the teams. I'm still trying to figure out why you think that NFL Network game announcers would be any different than usual. Of course they will be clueless about the teams... they are clueless about all teams. College or pro. Most of the time they aren't even watching the same game I am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big John Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Pretty sure they did this last year as well if I am remembering correctly. They do 2 bowl games a year, also had 1 on last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Mike Mayock is doing the Kansas Minnesota game. I like his NFL scout perspective for the games he does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Bob Papa was pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valhalla Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Mike Mayock is doing the Kansas Minnesota game. I like his NFL scout perspective for the games he does. Mayock has ties to MN somehow. He also does the Vikings pre-season games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piratesownninjas Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 I thought Bob Papa was pretty good. Papa is one of the worst in the biz. During the Jacksonville game 2-3 weeks ago he said Mike Walker caught his first reception of his career. Twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

satelliteoflovegm Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I would like you to think of a mistake you have recently made at work. Did it make you the worst at your job? Gimme a break. Papa is fine to above average and Mayock is very good and interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papa is fine to above average and Mayock is very good and interesting. Yeah, seriously. These announcers have producers in their ear, people handing them notes, color guys waiting to chime in... even the best get flustered and make a goof here and there. People just love to nitpick. It's their livelihood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiskey Pimp Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Papa is one of the worst in the biz. During the Jacksonville game 2-3 weeks ago he said Mike Walker caught his first reception of his career. Twice. I saw that too. His first actual reception came on a Jags penalty and the catch didn't count. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
