SkinzFoLife Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I know we got blown away and deserve every bit of criticism but I felt that Tirico and Gruden were truly being extra Douchy, most noticable when they would go to commercial break. Obviously these two dickwads have never played a down of football before at the college level and up and don't know the feeling for losing so bad. Yea, Gruden coached but its not the same a being a player. Jaws said a few minor things but for the most part kept it professional. I used to like Tirico but last night he got on my nerves. Al Michaels wouldn't done that. Maybe I'm just frustrated at the season, but I found myself yelling at the TV last night and normally I'm yelling at our players but last night I was yelling at the announcers.

ItIsOver Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 It was well deserved. At least they said what we all wanted to. I hope Danny boy gets a copy of the tape. He'll truly see what a joke he has made this organization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heisenberg Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 They were being forced to commentate a game between an NFL playoff contender and a Pop Warner football team. I'm pretty sure their announcing reflected that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrifNick21 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Yeah, Tirico was more or less joking every single thing they did. Like on that bull**** call before halftime as the Giants were running the INT back, he called it "embarrassing." While this is true, he doesn't need to be saying it. But then again, don't let it happen and we won't have to worry about it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttr77 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Yes they were...and I couldn't disagree with a word they said. Especially when Tirico said 'What in the wide world is going on here' and 'This is embarrassing' after the fake field goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
authentic Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 with the issues we have before us, the last thing we need to worry about is the commentary. Honestly, i don't know what else you would expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksun247 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 We SUCK!!!! If it wasn't for the National audience, we would have 3rd/4th team announcers. We'll get Michaels/Collinsworth next week. If we perform as bad, we can expect the same comments, plus a gambling reference from Al. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoBoCTiberius Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Why should they bother being professional when we can't? Why should they bother taking this team seriously when we can't? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllBusiness Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I loved Tirico's line;"And good news for Redskin fans....It's the TWO MINUTE WARNING!" I am not angry at them at all. What do you think Don Meredith or Cosell would have been like last night? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bat~man Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 So what? They are just saying the things that everyone who has watched a Skins game this year already knows. If the tables were turned and say...Dallas was having the year we are, then we would all be laughing~ =p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Brown #43 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Maybe I'm just frustrated at the season, but I found myself yelling at the TV last night and normally I'm yelling at our players but last night I was yelling at the announcers. I actually found myself laughing along with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morning Wood Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Really? You're upset with the broadcast booth? They had to call a game that was the most lop-sided asswhooping I think I've ever seen... and your knickers are in a twist because you think they needed to show some more respect?????

asnpcwiz Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Good. Maybe us becoming the comical relief in the NFL will make Snyder realize he needs to keep his nose and his friends out of football operations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodriggo Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 They were, but we deserved it. Rather have Tirico and Gruden get "douchey" when we actually do **** than having Moose Johnston or Troy Aikman **** all over us regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCchillin89 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 You're being WAY too sensitive dude. We deserved worse. Last night was absolutely embarrassing and those "Players" deserved every bit of that criticism. Neither Tirico nor Gruden were out of line... at all. Get your panties untwisted.

Zhouse Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Stop complaining about the announcers being "douchy." There was nothing positive to talk about. Maybe some tough criticism is what's needed to show this fanbase, players, coaches, FO and everyone else involved with this organization how bad we really are.

Renegade7 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 You have to call it how you see it. I almost died laughing the second time we went out for the fake FG, couldn't believe what I was seeing. New low, we deserved to get smacked around after performing like that on national tv.

TMK9973 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I loved them. I loved when Tirico discussed how all the Redskins fans did a lot to get to the game. Many of them digging out of huge snow drifts, schools and government shut down, and yet the fans made it and they deserved better then this. The Redskins should apologize to the announcers.
