Redskins Stuff…

I did, I even posted his call. He raised his voice like an old man complaining that his soup was cold. Which is to say, barely.

What a beautiful way to raise your voice on an iconic call.

By the way, it's funny how some of you guys are mentioning that Brad shams call on the play was better when he's become the exact opposite since then.

I used to love Brad sham but now I think he's pretty bad. Talk about no emotion or not calling a play properly.

Brad will call a play that you'll never know was a big play or was a potential scoring play until it's over.

I don't know what happened to him, but I don't like it.

Dude. He sucks now. I'm sorry, but it's the truth. Just old age, I guess, which isn't anyone's fault. But yes, his calls are awful. You often don't even know what's going on until well after the play when Laufenberg clarifies it.

Also "Walk the dog" needs to go the way of the dodo.

Here's a good comparison. Harlan calling two games at once because they were following the seeding implications.

Tremendous. Way way way better than what Summerall gave us, and Summerall was calling a much bigger moment.

 

[Irving Cowboy]

Even better was Joe Starkey's call at 36:10

 

[Texas Ace]

Sure is.

No such thing as a dumb argument in the middle of a workday if it's helping us pass the time.

I HATE that phrase.

Where the hell did it even come from?

 

[Chocolate Lab]

Eh, I think Harlan is too much the other way. Too forced and uberdramatic for me.

(And the slap girl was still better than trashy carwash girl!)

Et tu?

I love Harlan.

Harlan to me is the perfect example of how to be emotional and exciting but not too over the top like that bozo that Gus Johnson that was all the rage years ago.

So glad the hype around that guy died down.

IIRC it started in the late 2000s. I think some player said that and he picked it up like it was the hip new thing he had to say.

And 15 years later, he still uses it. :(

Its awful.

Summerall was probably half in the bag when he did that game. Give him a break.

The GOAT Harry Kalas voiceover too. I'm swooning.

He started it with Julius Jones. That's as far back as I remember it.

Harlan calls a random guy running on the field.

 

[Genghis Khan]

I'm sorry but one more Harlan.

"Pull up your pants, take off the bra, and BE A MAN!"

It doesn't get better.

 

[Irving Cowboy]

The best Kevin Harlan call ever and it's not even close:

 

[Cujo]

Well, this is a dumb argument.

Fuck Pat Summerall.

 

[Cotton]

 

[NoDak]

Fuck Pat Summerall.

Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.

Let’s not lose our fuck minds now.
