He’s pushing retirement age, anyway.

East Broadway Joe, on the other hand, we may be stuck with regardless. He’s topped out as far as the talent side goes.. and — unless he has some skills heretofore unseen — where’s he going to do any better than here?

If they haven’t encouraged him to spend more time with his family by now, we may be stuck with him untl 2040. By which time I presumably won’t care as much.

Which shouldn’t be too long from now.

Trouble is, the same is likely true for East Broadway Joe. Which means I’ll be throwing Space Food Sticks and virtual remotes at the holo-monitor in 2050.

Joe is blind — so eager for the game to be over, especially since he’d just called for a turnover.

Even if “the ball was on the turf”, any objective viewer — with the sound down — would have a very difficult time stating as absolute fact that Oregon had recovered.

At least it’s himself he’s making an ass out of.

Delete this posting, take the one below and move it way the hell down the page please. TYVM

What next, Zima? Good god people!

At least West is a “lyrical genius”, and “the voice of a generation”.

Booo Petros! Booo!

He has an evening sports radio show in the LA area (it might actually be national now), and he does a great job. He’s over the top sometimes, but he generally knows his stuff and is a good host.

On the other hand, he’s terrible doing color commentary for football games. I listen to him way more on the radio than on football broadcasts, so I like him, but I can see that if your only exposure to him was on the FSN game of the week that you wouldn’t be a fan.

I don’t know if Musberger was just off or what, but I found his calls on most of the important plays to be really blase. Even if he did try to put some emotion into the call, it usually came late. I don’t know if the broadcasters don’t have a good view at that stadium, but I was disappointed in Musberger.

That being said, I HATE it when hometown announcers go crazy like that. UA clearly wound up with the ball, and everyone saw it. Just get over it, admit that there was something you missed the first time, and drop the hysteria.

Or worse, some devil spawned creature that kills Anthony Newman.

In many Charger games, Fouts does broadcasting. Perhaps he could give it a shot in Eugene

Wish they had the technology to just mute Joe on the playback side.

My wife was upstairs watching it on TV while I was in the living room.

I noticed that every time I heard a positive shout from up there, something good happened on my TV about 10 seconds later.. and whenever I heard an expletive I was soon inventing my own variation of same.

Midway thru the 4th quarter I moseyed upstairs, to try to determine the source of her newfound psychic ability. Turned out she had the sound down and was listening to Jerry.

This was right before the FG doinked over the bar.

All Duck fans should give credit to my dear wife’s oneness with Juju, because once I eschewed the big screen for the 13" portable and Jerry on the side, the momentum shifted in Oregon’s favor.
