Post by: Necromancer on November 08, 2007, 01:59:24 PM: I have no problem with Rob Stone. He is a little weird but he is better than Randy "I'm Super LAME" Peterson and whatever other bowlers they got presenting the show. What they need is Stuart Scott and Bob Costas. What they have now is garbage with the exception of Rob Stone.

And yeah, I do know it all.. I don't spend 30+ hours a week learning more about bowling for my heatlh... I do it so I know more than all of you.. which I do. (besides the random few that are staffers/work in the bowling business.. which that population is decreasing little by little)

Post by: Necromancer on November 08, 2007, 02:24:16 PM: How can you hate Stuart Scott? He is one of the originals that made ESPN what it is today - all with one eye. If you hatin' on Scott, then I'd be interested to know what announcer, for any sport, you think is good.

Post by: 230-n-up-or-bust on November 08, 2007, 03:02:44 PM: What announcer is good? IMHO, Al Michaels, Joe Buck, Bob Costas, and Sean McDunnaugh(sp?) ar among the best in the business. Stuart Scott ranks right up there with Jim Rome. Few men have done more with less.

Post by: 230-n-up-or-bust on November 08, 2007, 03:04:29 PM: FWIW, Stuart Scott was around in excess of a decade after ESPN got it's start. He's made it what it is today, alright. Mediocre. He and Stephen A. Smith are what makes ESPN a chore to listen to during sports highlights.

Randy has personality and rob stone is a cool guy he doesnt know much about bowling but at least he speaks out and tries to make jokes which is cool other then dave ryan being extremely formal Denny's this denny's that um denny's title was not back in 1986

I can totally hear him doing that. You gotta imagine a very stop/start delivery on the "COST. HIM. THE. GAME!!" part for it to really work.

Post by: Necromancer on November 09, 2007, 08:13:02 AM: It is ironic how the two top sports analyst for the past 10+ years are both African American. I guess you could add Wilbon to go 3 for 3. My top announcers that could do bowling or any sport because they are that d@mn good:

1. Al Michaels
2. Bob Costas
3. John Madden
4. Stuart Scott
5. Mike Greenburg

Post by: Necromancer on November 09, 2007, 08:17:27 AM: Why all the hate for Steven A? He is the real deal and leaves no one untouched when it comes to honest opinions. He could of been great last week in saying something like

"McCune's delivery is just horrible! It is outragious that someone with his demeanor represents this sport called the PBA!"

That DOES sound like stephen A. Smith.

I don't dislike him that much, but his style has grown old with me. Way too much sensationalism...
Title: Re: For all the Rob Stone haters..........
Post by: Dan Belcher on November 09, 2007, 08:35:33 AM: Did you ever watch the show Quite Frankly with Stephen A. Smith? That's why I can't stand him. Most annoying f'ing show ever, and it ALWAYS came on immediately after Friday Night Fights on ESPN2...

Post by: TheDude on November 09, 2007, 02:30:48 PM: Rob Stone is braver than me! Cheers to him

And since it's being discussed, Stuart Scott was cool like...10 years ago. He's still OK, but he needs to dump that inner city slang talkin and the references to hip-hop culture that a lot of people find obscure. I know what he's talking about, but I've been listening to him say it for a decade.
