That is so funny....and sad because he really said it.

haha I was driving myself crazy trying to find a highlight of that call somewhere. Alas, I had no luck... Guess it will just have to live on in our hearts.

I'm more of a Rosinski fan, but Mick was a hometown guy that was very likable. Not sure why there is so much hate for him.

 

By all accounts, Mick the man is a good guy. On the other hand, Mick the announcer? Not so much.

I'm sure Mick is a good guy, but it's hard to believe he ever made it as a professional announcer.  He has absolutely zero aptitude for it.

 

 I hate talking  bad about folks. But, every broadcast sounds like his first.

I never cared for Mick as an announcer.  I'm sure he's a great guy and all, but he's very hard to listen to.  I can't remember why the organization got rid of Bill, but he was 10x better than Mick ever was.

 

Bill made the powers that be mad. New powers that be. Maybe there is a slim possibility he may return.

Wasn't it because he called it like he saw it and wasn't full-on homer? In other words, if the Panthers fugged up on a play, he would put the team/player on blast and the organization didn't like that.

More like he thought he meant more to the team than the team did. He wanted a ring, He didn't get one.

That was the first time Jerry’s pettiness raised its ugly head.   It continued with his sons, gentleman, Morrison etc.     jerry did a lot for Charlotte and I will never forget him but holy hell he was a weird dude

Opinions or not I think there is no way in hades one could argue he was even close to a competent announcer.  He was horrid.  If the best compliment someone could say about him is that he is a good guy then he has no business calling nfl games.

    • But that would run counter to a lot of basic logic.  Frank Reich largely had an ideal QB he had worked with…and Reich world people were beating that drum loudly during the draft process that CJ Stroud fit what Frank would want/need.  And reporting also was signaling there was a split in house and Tepper wanted Young. We ended up with Young.  
    • There's more to coaching than play calling, even down on the field. Madden isn't going to simulate how your WR1 had a big fight with his wife the night before the game and is stiff from sleeping on the couch. It's not going to simulate that the fight was because the QB's wife was flirting with the WR and now, because she went full on ballistic that the QB now knows about it. It's not going to simulate that questionable bucket of wings your o-line shared three hours before the game is now causing cramps and gas. It's also not going to simulate the real wear and tear of the season and how about December even the moderately good teams are about halfway spending their brain power on picking their January vacation destinations. But for a video game, it's pretty good.  
    • Last Madden I played was 17, got this for like 10-12 bucks a few months ago and its a great improvement imo. I havent had to touch the sliders much.
