Dalton was positioning the ball in the middle of the field for the game-winning FG attempt. Apparently, Chris Myers had never seen this maneuver before.
"LOOSE BALL!!!!"
He thought Dalton jumped on a fumble.

The guys on the Lions/Vikings game might have been the most incompetent yet. Not only did they constantly identify the wrong players but they couldn't even get the teams right. Golden Tate now plays for the Vikings.

"Jim Caldwell has been reading a bunch of books that leaders read and has been trying to bring that to the Lions."
I almost spit beer all over my living room.

Mike Goldberg’s time as an NFL announcer for FOX lasted one game.
The network pulled Goldberg from this week’s Vikings-Bills game after he had a disastrous debut on the Vikings-Lions game this past Sunday. According to multiple reports and complaints, the UFC announcer apparently mis-identified players and coaches and frequently messed up the down and distance.
According to Pro Football Talk, Goldberg went on to battle some folks on Twitter who were not pleased with his performance. He dropped an F-bomb and called another tweeter an “a—hole.”
Goldberg will be replaced by veteran Tim Brando this Sunday in Buffalo.

I don't think Goldberg knows how to announce anything without Joe Rogan yelling in his ear.

Meh, while not brilliant, it makes sense. He isnt referring to the fact that you are winning per se. He's talking about how you are able to play the game differently with a lead. No real way to say it without sounding stupid I guess.Yeah, that one had me shaking my head.Zow said:

They say Kaufman stadium is harder to hit home runs in. I don't give much credence to that but that ball would have been a home run in Camden Yards.

Yeah I knew what he was getting at (that the emotional impact of playing with or without a lead is substantially heightened) but the way he said it sounded pretty dumb. What was even funnier was the pause by cal and the other announcers just after he said it because they immediately knew how silly it sounded.Meh, while not brilliant, it makes sense.

Still a pretty weak point. What viewers are enlightened by the fact playing with a lead requires a different mentality than playing from behind?Meh, while not brilliant, it makes sense.

There has not even been an out recorded in the top of the 1st yet in this NLCS game, and Harold Reynolds has already said:
1) "That's a good baseball play by Carpenter."
2) "Now he's (Jay) playing baseball."
3) "Now they're (Jay, and presumably the rest of the Cardinals) playing baseball."
Thank God he clarified. I thought I was watching rugby.

I feel kind of bad for Goldy, but he has some real bad moments in the UFC too so not too surprising. I hope he gets another shot at some point, because i think he was honestly trying. But yeah, he got beat up bad for this.

In football, all the time. Usually X's and O's stuff I missed while watching the guy with the ball.

Ray Lewis just let us know that J.J. Watt "has to be J.J. Watt" tonight.
Thanks, Ray! That is analysis you can only get from a long-time NFL veteran.

Harold Reynolds with the rare double stupidity tonight: "You've gotta swing if you want to get off the island."
A) The saying is "you can't walk off the island."
B) He was talking about two players from Venezuela.

Harold never stops talking, especially when he's got nothing to say.

He's now saying that the Royals played the Tigers in the playoffs.
I remember in the baseball forum, people were happy about McCarver retiring, but I posted that I was withholding happiness until it was announced who they were replacing him with.
This. Is. Why.

Jaguars fired their longtime radio play by play guy and hired a local sports radio host to do PBP and he's horrible.
About every 10-15 minutes, you get a "Wow did you see that?" or "How about that move right there".
Dude we're listening on the radio. You're supposed to TELL US about that move right there.
Other thing he does is describe the play in great detail but you don't the outcome of the play until 15 seconds after you hear the whistle from that play occur in the background.
Like "Denard Robinson runs left side, Joekel is late with the reach block but (on-field whistle in background) Denard spins past the first defender, and Beadles gets a piece of the LB but he was slowed enough that the safety has come in and cleaned up. Shame they couldn't get more room there since it looked promising at first but they're staying committed to the ground game. Gain of 1. 2nd and 9"

Pretty sure the guy doing the Ole Miss LSU game just said "here comes the beef curtain" refering to big lineman coming in on a 4th down play. Guy may want to visit urban dictionary.

In the car listening to Seahawks radio announcers and Seahawks score TD 'And of course the Panthers call timeout to preserve time.'
Timeout was for injury, obviously not to stop the clock

Phil Simms just said "acrost." He loves that word. Is he about to compose a poemic with an acrost?
