I'm new to this forum and this was my first thread so I didn't want to be too controversial. I was considering asking "Why does Bob McCown dislike soccer so much?" but I figured that would just piss people off.
My post got 30 replies so it seemed to resonate with some people. Maybe its just a slow news day.

^ all the time.
Play by Play and Colour Commentary are professions that rely heavily on expansive vocabulary. That's why the Premier League commentators are so great - not because of their accents, but more-so for their wide-ranging lexicon (see what I did there ?).

ahah I get it. Yes the adjectives that sometimes get blurted out by them are hilarious.
That's completely fair, he probably has notes on each player and he just repeats them every time.

The first 10 minutes is almost unlistenable as they go through their lists of points to be made. Action on the field? Doesn't matter - they have to get those notes out.
