What makes you love Sonny? He's just an old version of Larry Michael.

Oh no didn't.

Sonny Jurgensen is a Hall of Fame quarterback, and one of the greatest Redskins of all time. He is a legend in the booth as well, as he has been calling games for as long as anyone has been listening. He has been inside this team for almost as long as it's been in Washington.

Larry, on the other hand, is the unredeemable soul of a corporate boob, in the body of a carp. He is an incompetent radio play-by-play man. He is Snyder's humanoid Teddy Ruxpin. He is almost mocking the long time Skins fan, as the ever present reminder that there is still something fundamentally wrong with this team. He's all this and so much less, and the sooner we are past the "Larry Era," the better. He needs to go waddle back under the rock that Snyder plucked him from.

Okay. My bad.

I have a problem with any analyst that takes their opinions to one extreme all the time. Guys like B-Mitch and Czabe are constantly bitching and crying that the sky is falling. While someone like Larry Michael seems oblivious that there could be anything wrong with the team at all.

At the same time they also praise and give props to the team when they play well. I think a lot of times we as fans hate to hear any thing negative about our team whether it is deserved or not. Some of us live in a sports world that doesn't allow us see that our team can do wrong or may have a weak spot, or etc.

Everybody that don't drink the kool-aid, shouldn't be hated on or considered bashers.

Re: Why Do So Many Skins Fans..............

I have always liked the honesty that B. Mitch and Czaban bring on the air. It's a counterbalance to the Pollyanna approach of Larry Michaels and others who just don't have it in them to be critical of the team. Guys like Michaels have zero credibility as reporters when they can't ask a tough question or give criticism when warranted.

It will be interesting to see how B Mitch, Czabe, Al Koken, Doc and Pollin act if the Redskins struggle out of the gate. Cause now Snyder signs their checks and they've all been very critical of him.

If that happens, what are they suppose to do. Cover-up broadcasting?

Doc Walker has been critical at times the last few years and he doesn't seem to garner much hate.

I just dont think "Czab" is worth a damn as a radio personality. It's an elusive artform. You either have it or you don't. He aint got it.
