On an even lighter than light note...

Did anyone watch the CBS South Florida broadcast of the game? I moved from NC a few month ago and the game wasn't aired live here so I resisted coming here and NFL.com for about 12 hours or so and watched the game this morning on NFLnetwork.

South Florida's broadcasters were god awful. They mispronounced players names the whole time, they made mistakes and started randomly drawing on the screen when the camera would cut to a different shot, what they talked about was plain ridiculous, they kept saying the most obvious things in the world, they literally impressed me with how little they knew of NFL football, I can't remember all the stupid things they said but I remember the old white guy just bumbling all over his words the whole damn time and I remember that he didn't know when roster cuts were and how many player they cut down to. Plus they would make huge pauses in the middle of sentences because they didn't know players names. CBS kept showing the Jaguars vs. Dolphins logo every time a commercial came up. It really made me miss Eugene Robinson and Mick Mixon...

i had to watch it on that bootleg tv site because i didn't know the on campus apartment im staying at didn't have local chanels. I'll have to fix that soon.

they seemed alright, i didn't notice anything that bad. I'm not going to fault them for not knowing the names of our players. They seemed to do a good job with dolphins for the most part.

I'm not a stickler for this type of thing, but they seemed to do a pretty bad job. I rarely even listen to the announcers or pay attention very closely to what they're talking about but they just stuck out. I dunno, it was mostly the old white guy that was messing up.

    • Link to article Seven players mentioned are... ILB Mark Robinson (PIT) - 2022 seventh round pick that was a core special teams player and was productive in the final preseason game vs. CAR (3 TKLs, 1 FF, 1 FR). Undersized at 5'11" 235 lbs.  CB O'Donnell Fortune (NYG) - UDFA rookie out of South Carolina (and a Sumter native). 6'1", 185lbs frame fits the Panthers' preference for long and lanky CBs. Panthers' evaluators got a lot of time with him during the Shrine Bowl, his pro day, and the combine. CB Damarri Mathis (DEN) - 2022 fourth-round pick that played for Evero his rookie season at 5'11" 195lbs both inside and outside. Did well under Evero (16 games, 11 starts, 65 TKLs, 7 PBUs) but slid down the depth chart after he left. Started just seven of 27 games the last two seasons. DB Dean Clark (NYJ) - Fresno State UDFA with good size (6'1" 205lbs) and preseason production (5 TKLs, 1 INT, 2 PBUs) that can also play special teams. The Panthers have claimed a player from the Jets in each of the past two seasons (having also played the Jets both times in preseason though). OLB Brennan Jackson (LAR) - 2024 fifth-rounder that notched three sacks in the preseason. Played special teams and rotated in on defense that could potentially be an upgrade from DJ Johnson. DB Beau Brade (BAL) - 2024 UDFA that appeared in 11 games and played 70% of the special teams snaps. Has the size (6'0" 209lbs) that the team covets at safety. K Ben Sauls (PIT) - 24yrs old and went four-for-four against Carolina in preseason. Made 21 of 24 FGs during his final college season at Pitt.
