Needless to say, there are plenty of things that irritate me about the Worldwide Leader's coverage/commentators for CFB. But there is one thing that has bothered me throughout their games this season and now they embarass themselves by repeating it in a bowl game......Chris Spielman.

Am I the only one who can smell the brain cells in my head burning away just from having to listen to this meathead? Just curious.

Oh, and.....GO IRISH!!!!

Edit: I do realize he's just the color commentator; I just didn't realize DUMB was a color.

The rest of the BCS is on FOX this year. They are talking up the Rose Bowl because it is the only bowl game on ABC this year.

I could give a shit... they are supposed to report sports news not create it... and sorry but SC being in the game is a big factor too... hard to imagine them ignoring a LSU USC sugar bowl

The countdown timer for the Rose bowl is a bit much.

It's almost embarrassing. Trying to pretend the Rose Bowl is bigger than the National Championship just makes "the family of networks" look silly and an insult to the average viewers' intelligence.

it a nightly sports news show bro... they relay highlights and cover the top stories of the day in sports... just because most news coverage of any kind these days is partial doesn't mean it's right... there is a responsiblity to show events as they occured, one would expect them to at least convey proper stats, live in reality and convey the world of sports the way it truely is if you can't see that point I feel sorry for you and am quite done with this topic have a good one
