Sports commentary from a thespian.

L.A. = Lose Anywhere?

You would think that a city with two football teams would have at least one good one. You'd be wrong, though.

[shakesport]

Pittsburg fans booing the ref for calling out a blatantly nasty QB hit. You are what's wrong with football. #nfl

[shakesport]

Nice to see the refs trying to get The Browns a win by ignoring a blatant face mask penalty.

[shakesport]

Announcers: “There’s a sound like a horn on the field.”  

Anyone who’s ever used a live mic: “IT’S FEEDBACK, YOU IDIOTS!”

[shakesport]

Shula calls plays: Panthers are clumsy and flounder.  Cam calls plays: Panthers are efficient and score.  FIRE SHULA!

NFL Announcers

Don’t understand that football is a team sport.  “Starting Anderson is the reason Seattle scored.” No.  Anderson’s throw was fine. A bobbled catch is the reason.  Be smarter.    

[shakesport]

Uhhh... what?

All Carolina Panthers fans watching the first drive against Seattle.

[shakesport]

These Teams...

Need to learn that the neighborhood football lateral-until-you-score-or-fall never works and just makes them look dumb. Even if they DID score, it should earn an excessive stupidity penalty.

[shakesport]

Anyone else...

... think Carson Wentz in his helmet looks like he just drank a big glass of carrot juice - OH WAIT THATS A MUSTACHE!

NFL Can’t Catch

The catch rulings are complete bullshit. Further proof that neither the refs nor Gooddell have any idea how football works. Also, I love how there is different penalty yardage assigned for the same call. Are the substitute refs back in?

[shakesport]

Who let Carey Elwes coach the Redskins?

[shakesport]

Why is Will Ferrell playing quarterback for the Steelers?

[shakesport]

"The receiver had not established possession, filed a proper, notarized declaration of the intent to run, submitted that declaration in triplicate to each ref, received a certificate of running ability, and then become a runner. Incomplete pass." Hands on ball, pull it in. That's how you catch a football. Maybe the refs or Goodell need to go back and play catch again.
