Brent Musberger

[Doc]

He sucks...flaps his jaw about SEC football during a basketball game 'cause he knows nothing about hoops! Calls Fran the expert, but won't let him talk. Shut up Mushmouth and give the guy who knows the microphone!

He was trying to get Fran to shut up once he started talking about the CFB playoff.

It's a basketball game. Don't care about football

 

[Prone2Clone]

Yep, me too. He makes no sense sometimes, and doesn't have much basketball insight, but he is entertaining. Loved his description of Monty's nut shot.

MANtay. It's MANtay.

You make a solid point.

Or maybe, I dono.... ESPN want to advertise the playoffs because it'f going be on on their channel. Capitalism at work!

I, for one, love Musberger. Sure he doesn't have a ton of basketball insight, but that is why Fran is there. Plus, playing the Musberger drinking game is a ton of fun! :yes:

Anyone else notice how he immediately noted when the teams hit 160 (the over/under)? Classic Musberger.

 

[VTXCyRyD]

Maybe he meant Cylons?

This is my favorite Cylon

 

[Bigman38]

He could screw up everyone's name and those two would still be my favorite bball broadcast team.

 

[pulse]

I love it when they do our games. I like Mantay better than mon too!

He has a poster of Georges Niang above his bed. The after picture.

How many d1 teams are there and you want him to know every player on every team plus football stuff?

I never said that. Also, I'm not sure if you know how that all works, but most of the time the commentators know ahead of time what games they will be calling so they can do adequate research in the days leading up to the game. Fran knows his stuff. Brent (sometimes) doesn't.
I like the fact that we had two well-known commentators today. I don't hate Brent. I just think it's funny sometimes that a guy who is seen as basically a legend in his line of work had trouble with simple names. It's not a big deal at all. Just something I found amusing.

 

[bigdaddykane]

How many times did he say Niang played HS ball with Noel? Or about his weight loss?

 

[ISpyCy]

Musberger and Fraschilla can commentate the remaining MBB games this year, and I would be A-OK with that.

Does Manti Morris have a dead imaginary girlfriend?

He was probably flustered by the sight of curly haired girl with longer slightly less curly hair. She's no Alabama QB girlfriend, but Moose must be about 100.

 

[carvers4math]

How many times did he say Niang played HS ball with Noel? Or about his weight loss?

Not sure but "Dejean Bryce Jones" transfer from UNLV came up after every stoppage of play.

 

[RedlineSi]

Fran's the best and I have no probs with Mus. He messed up a few times, but these guys call lots of games.

 

[HFCS]

It's getting close to the point where Noel will be mentioned as somebody who played HS with Niang. Not really jimlad.

 

[carvers4math]

I wonder why the Nigerian Nightmare's story doesn't get more attention. They talked about their guy but I don't think he was living on the streets of Compton. Maybe Daniel doesn't want the attention?
