Who likes Chris Collinsworth?

Who dislikes Chris Collinsworth?

I like him. He sounds like football to me. So therefore, I'll like Jac even more cuz he loves Our Lady.

That said, I loved Tommy Hammond so wth do I know?
I liked Chris Collinsworth, like you said he sounds like football when he analyzed a play.

Like Chris Collingsworth. Good high level player and will say a negative thing about what's going on the field,
I believe that his pre-broadcast prep is excellent. Does not say stupid "original" stuff to get emotions going.
A football guy. Sense of humor --- used to doofus around with Howie Long on the set when he was there rather in the booth.

Son Jac is a good announcer too. Follows after the old man in pre-game prep. Both are very intelligent. Both like ND. (obviously)
I would be happy with either Jac as play-by-play or Chris as color. Both probably would be disastrously distracting.

I watched them in the Hall of Fame game.
Jac was ok, but Garrett was pretty bland. He let quiet Dungy talk all over him. Hopefully he can become decent, but I'm not a fan of NBC using guys "learning on the job" with the Irish broadcast.

Both would be brutal. You'd have to pay close attention when already trying to follow the game.

Glad to see Jac get the opportunity.

One of the daughter in laws is in love with Chris. smh!

I like him as a color guy.

Hammond? If it wasn't for your Flannigan comment, you would have lost all credibility! lol

Hate with the heat of 1000 suns

His next original utterance will be his 1st.
To be honest, there isn't much of anything original coming out of any color guys mouths these days. It's all be said a thousand time. It's just about the delivery IMO.

Hopefully the play on the field is very good all season so it doesn't hurt as bad listening to these too.

Does Driskell troll IE because it's free and his own board is a piece of shit and constantly down and he's too poor to afford a premium message board subscription and his wife isn't real and is a blow up doll so she doesn't contribute anything towards his trailer mortgage payment?

Am I warm, Driskell?

Total meltdown at IB. Driskell trolls IE bad. I know the handle. Funny stuff.
Is it in meltdown due to member revolt after Driskell once again sh$t the bed with his takes about a 5-star recruit who decided to go elsewhere? Or is it in revolt because a man who drinks Mountain Dew and eats Jimmy Johns on screen during his podcasts is trying to sell his members Built Bars?

Before I deleted Twitter I asked him if IB stood for Irritable Bowels. I was quickly blocked. I may start a new page to troll Reap errr I mean Driskell
Yeah, I’m not Driskell.
I actually got temporarily banned there for calling him out.
Is this the new cool thing?
Calling people Driskell?
You need to up your game. When I fought professionally I had opponents threaten to murder my wife to try to get to me. LOL
Weak-minded people call others names & run their mouths.

It is funny. My rep score is awful - I understand. I guess I can be a crumudgeon and not easily pleased. But I don't rip on people personally.... But in terms of who is Driskell on IE....Lets put it this way, Driskell argued with me on IB and on IE. I know who Driskell is on IE.

The funny thing on IB is:

1. He encourages people to give counter opinions (like Ryan Roberts and others on videos) in such a silly way it reminds me of John Candy in Stripes telling the other Poker Player to "Go-All-In" against him after he has seen their hand....then when people take him to task, he bans them or attacks them personally in the most indignant way

2. The Dancing Emojis - He criticizes late Crystal Balls and claims he has the best intel but put outs Dancing Emojis that don't state what recruit he believes is committing and then takes ownership a week later after the Commit. It is like a bad parlour trick that clearly is meant for a really stupid audience which I guess are the remaining subscribers that he hasn't band and are synchophants.

3. Built Bars: He pushes Built Bars which are basically really bad carb ladened protein bars. The best thing he could do is push intermittent fasting or just not eating at all. I didn't think Quarterbacks looked like he does. But I guess not all QBs look like Tom Brady or Brady Quinn.

I really tried to relate to Bryan but he was just so awful to me so I guess that is why I call him Soup Nazi. It fits him perfectly.
