[CPA-hole]

Saw A-hole Mark Jones got a play-off gig.

 

[Frank Costanza]

Saw A-hole Mark Jones got a play-off gig.

Yeah, still plenty of time for him to develop elongated laryngitis.

And I don't know who's doing CU's bowl game but I'm sure POS will do it gratis just for another opportunity to slobber over Sanders.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's him.

Hey Frank, what are your top 3-5 announcing duos? Love the thread and check it weekly… after wagering and watching hundreds of games it’s entertaining grading refs and announcers. Haha I’m a big Kevin Harlan fan…met the man many moons ago. He’s Top Shelf for me currently. Doing a helluva job in the NFL. Happy Holidays, good luck!

Great to hear. I wish I could rate duos as there are bad mixes. My Individual tops are below (NFL / CFB). Would love to hear yours, CPA's, KJ's and others. We all have our favorites.

PxP (after the first two no particular order)
- McDonough (his late-game calls on SMU / Clemson were simply fantastic)
- Harlan
- Burkhardt
- Nessler
- Pasch
- Ian Eagle
- Tom Hart

[Frank Costanza]

Danielson is so bad now. Borderline feel sorry for him.

 

[Frank Costanza]

Bump and updated...asleep at the switch I was.

 

[WolverineWise]

He’s an asshole, don’t ever.

 

[bones]

This is going to be blasphemy, but Andre Ware has grown on me. I easily get why he is noted in red, but he's such a nice guy.

Tessitore is like nails on a chalkboard. If Texas loses Saturday the positive will be I can watch Peach Bowl with sound on the lowest setting

This such an underrated thread over the years. When Andre Ware grows on you hahaha you have me laughing this chilly AM bones

Joe Tessitore

By no means are we limited to Tylenol when it comes to the drug(s) necessary to withstand a Tessitore broadcast. I just caution as such.

Guessing there's one or two contributors on CTG that can hook you up, bones.

 

[Frank Costanza]

Okay, Ware and Anish get the high props for wearing puffy shirts in Raymond James Stadium. Fantastic.

 

[Frank Costanza]

And then Andre completely missed a penalty call.

On cue.

 

[twinkie13]

I actually see what bones meant today:

Anish asked Andre about Ty Thompson’s showcase day and how he helped OR hurt himself today(this question was asked mid to late 3rd Q).

Ware, hemmed and hawed. If you watched the game you’d understand that the only acceptable answer was he might as well have stuck a grenade up his own arse.
