Brent Musberger: the Bard

eat yer shorts Jim Nantz.....i was watching the OU-NU replay on ESPN360....and i had to laugh at TurdBurglers line in the intro:

"the People, the Land....and their Teams". groan.

jesus, pass that hayseed over here whilse ah get to whittlin'. whar's mah dog Blue?

he may or may not know we horny handed sons and daughters of the earth can read and write and cipher, some of us. Sometimes.

 

Obviously Musberger has lost a step, but I've always like him. Not to mention that he has always been very positive towards OU when he calls our games.

I'd take him over Nantz any day.

 

As long as he bet on them.

He's so transparent when he calls games. You can tell who he bet on just by comparing the 1st down calls by the teams.

 

I especially liked him saying "Travis Loser" after his interception.

 

He is just about my least favorite announcer to ever call an OU Game.

 

At least in Nebraska, hatred of Musburger is something that is handed down generation to generation. It's as much of the fabric of Nebraska as corn and cattle are.

 

Well he sure as hell ain't no Beedle the Bard.

 

Didn't he call us the Hoosiers in the OSU game?

 

Yeah.

 

I'll always remember his calls during the 2000 season.

 

He sure sounded pro-NU for this last broadcast to me. Though I have thought in years past, especially back in the 80's while at CBS some of his calls were pro-OU. Perhaps he is just a bit of a frontrunner on the bit. And w/ NU coming out like a house a-fire in the first quarter maybe he couldn't help but be excited. NU winning the last Big XII championship probably would have been the better "story" from a broadcasting perspective.

 

Guys, he's pro everyone when whatever team is doing well. He sounded excited when Nebraska got up 17-0, but also sounded excited when OU came back to tie it up.

 

I've never minded Musburger.

 

Yes, the intro was cheesy but I'm betting Mushy isn't the one who wrote it.

He may not be exceptional, but at least I can stand to listen to Musberger. Most of them have me hitting the mute button in 5-10 minutes.

 

The Brent Musberger drinking game is hilarious.

 

unless you are the pard'ner.

 

82nd? All the Way!

 

you understand he's paid to sound excited, regardless of what is actually going on, right?

 

I think he's actually improved over the years.

Wait. Maybe I'm not comparing him to himself.

 

YOUR ARE LOOKING LIVE......i like Mussy
