  1. What's the over/under on how many pages this thread goes?
  2. Post #15 ;)
  3. Often times he won't even mention that somebody scored and then you realize a few moments have gone by and there hasn't even been any action on the ice. Maybe I'm critical of those who are in the biz, and their creativity (I'm overly critical of people as it is when it comes to a lack of range of vocabulary, I probably shouldn't because I'm probably guilty of it as well) however I hold the professionals to a higher standing. But there are some announcers that all use the same cookie cutter cliches and the only thing that separates them from the next cookie cutter announcer is their tone of voice. He is full of cliches, part of the reason I'll shut off almost any game Brian Engblom. As much as I criticize Emrick, he doesn't recite the same cliches and buzzwords, he has created his own style with a high level of journalistic integrity. I listened to the Edmonton feed tonight and it was refreshing to hear a crew that speaks candidly instead of trying to mimic all the rest. I'm probably too critical, but when I start hearing 'dirty areas', 'head on a swivel', 'literally', 'time and space', (I could go on) I usually just change the feed. It irks the hell out of me. You're a professional, open up a damn thesaurus. Well,_________.
  4. I think PA is the hard plastic curly straws nobody has used since they were kids.
  5. Haha, the one where the gear is all ground down and doesn't grab any more.
  6. I thought the whole point was for each person to fill in the____________.
  7. Fine, y'all just send me a PM if you have a can of whoop ass you need opened.
  8. He is a walking, talking cliche. I had about enough 'time and space's in the 1st period so I put on the Edmonton feed.
  9. Ah OK. Can I be that one utensil that gets jammed so you can't open the drawer?
  10. By cops?
  11. I still have no idea what this thread is about, was there a fight somewhere?
  12. The defense isn't help Chad one bit tonight, but his positioning and movement have been pisspoor. That 3rd goal never would have happened if he actually put in an effort to get back to the other side of the net. Time for some adjustments................ Ulllmark in for Chad and Edmonton feed for me, Dunleavy is nauseating.
  13. In what year?
  14. That's what I thought about mine. :D
  15. If they made more stops earlier in the game, they wouldn't have to worry about making stops that matter this late in the game.
  16. Touché
  17. Exactly, it's too early to blow it. They'll be in it until the Jets game. Then they'll get destroyed by the Jets so Fitz won't even get the opportunity to throw a last drive INT. It's only fitting.
  18. I guess Cam Talbot turned out to be a bust.
  19. It is a meaningless game because they don't have it in them to do what needs to be done the remaining 4 games.
  20. Another man killed by cops in Miami yesterday. Won't be headline news, he was white.
  21. This post is hidden because you have chosen to ignore posts by The Big Johnson. View it anyway?
