They all suck equally. But Verne and Gary were the absolute goddamned worst.Your world must suck on Fall Saturdays. (Insert smiley face thingy)
Your world must suck on Fall Saturdays. (Insert smiley face thingy)But Gary can tell you who the 3rd string water boy is for his old buddy Nick. Or coarch Sabans as the rest of us know him.
Okay, serious question on V & G. You echo what people have said on here for years. In fact, I'm pretty much on an island in giving those two some luke warm, half-hearted praise. I've never understood the vitriol. They must have been doing something right to be together all those years on the biggest broadcasts. I was pissed when they showed them trying to Soulja Boy in the FUGA game, but looking back, the reality was that the whole stadium was doing it and we were getting our asses polished by about 30. But the most consistent complaint I've heard over the years is claiming they, especially Gary, are Bama hacks. Of this, I chortle.
It's CBS and ESPN making the decisions to put the Tahd on so much, not the announcers. And another reality is that it's probably fairly difficult to find something critical to say about a team and coach who only lose once in a blue moon with an orange slice. It's funny how if you listen to sports talk shows, both locally and Finebaum, every fan, including Bama fans, think Gary Danielson hates their team. Ask any Bama fan and what you'll get is, "He don't never say nuthin' good bout' Lord Saybinz. He's just a Barner hack."
You're all V & G haters out there, the whole lot of you. Lay some knowledge on me about why they sucked so bad.
But Gary can tell you who the 3rd string water boy is for his old buddy Nick. Or coarch Sabans as the rest of us know him.Nice mouth. And right in front of the kids, too.
I cannot watch Gary call an Auburn game without saying "Shut up Gary" and/or "Fuck you Gary" at least a couple dozen times.
Nice mouth. And right in front of the kids, too.They have heard worse from Mr. Coarch Sabbins on Iron Bowl broadcasts.

Did you close off the 3rd and 4th floors of the mansion on game day?Is that where he keeps the Jumbotron 4000?
Did you close off the 3rd and 4th floors of the mansion on game day?Of the west or east wing?
Except for all 105 players and 115 coaches on the roster in Tuscaloosa.
Gary can't get anyone's name, play or fudgeing jersey number correct. He's dumber than school bus full of remedial bammers.
Verne, especially in his later years, provided nothing but a toad-face and some half-recollected stories of the glory days.So you're saying he's Eli Gold?

So you're saying he's Eli Gold?With even less game-content.
Speaking of Eli Gold, there's been many a time over the years while on the way to, or coming back from the Planez, I've tuned into the Bammer station to find out what's going on.Auburn Iron Bowl wins aside, I think my favorite calls from him were when Northern Illinois beat them and when ULM beat them.

Auburn Iron Bowl wins aside, I think my favorite calls from him were when Northern Illinois beat them and when ULM beat them.Glorious.
Verne, especially in his later years, provided nothing but a toad-face and some half-recollected stories of the glory days.Every now and then......we agree totally on something.

Auburn Iron Bowl wins aside, I think my favorite calls from him were when Northern Illinois beat them and when ULM beat them.He was bearable. And I actually liked the Snake. He was brutally honest and from what everyone said, a nice guy.
Verne, especially in his later years, provided nothing but a toad-face and some half-recollected stories of the glory days.I never liked Verne in any sport and thought he was terrible with names and with overall knowledge of sports. But I e always thought Gary is knowledgeable and brings playing perspective to the game. Like Todd Blackledge, I enjoy him.

However that’s not always the case. I e never liked that other dick head that played at PENN state and was a pro guy. He’s one dumb as a box of rocks. Gary and Todd know their stuff, imo.
And your calling people dum? Maroon.Look, I’m mentally challenged for good reason. I was thinking of Deirdorf I think. That did the pro games. He’s a prick.
Look, I’m mentally challenged for good reason. I was thinking of Deirdorf I think. That did the pro games. He’s a prick.You can't remember for shit. Clearly that was a Dirty Sanchez.
Really cool of you to point out my brain issues. That’s classy.
I have some memory and intellectual issues, sure. But here’s the thing, I can remember most of the major happenings in my life and I’m thankful for that.
I can remember my wedding ceremony, the birth of my children and the first rusty trumbone that you ever gave me at the 231 truck stop.
