Cris Collinsworth = Disappointment
I don't know how many of you have heard about this 25 year old video about Collinsworth but seriously you have to see it to believe it.
Still I miss the 80's. Also for anyone wondering the quote is taken out of context and suspiciously cut off but still it's kind of funny. Plus I felt a little left out not getting a chance to make a "disappointment" thread since offense and defense were already taken so it was between this and the training staff.

Re: Cris Collinsworth = Disappointment
Truly a disappointing "broadcaster." I know of no fan that actually thinks highly of him. I don't how how he manages to get a job sitting next to Al "The Great" Michaels.

Re: Cris Collinsworth = Disappointment
He's being facetious regarding the underage girls... Can you imagine anyone saying such a thing today, though?

Re: Cris Collinsworth = Disappointment
He borders on un-watchable. He's much more critical than I prefer analysts to be. Just analyze, don't MMQB every single play and ride your high horse for 3 hours.

Re: Cris Collinsworth = Disappointment
It was sad hearing Collinsworth blame Chicago's receivers for every interception that Cutler threw. This guy is tolerable in small doses, anything more he becomes unbearable.

Re: Cris Collinsworth = Disappointment
I don't think theres a great announcer in American Football. No one that really makes or breaks weather you watch a game. There are a few that will make you press the mute button but those are few and far between. The one's that really annoy me are those patronizing local sports shows that make big deals out of everything. You would have thought that Auburn had a shot at the national title after beating Northwestern Southcentral Louisina District 1 college.
Baseball has Jon Miller. And Soccer....well soccer has this guy named Ray Hudson who goes absolutely nuts with his metaphors. My friends and I like to sit around sometime and come up with our own Ray Hudson lines.

Re: Cris Collinsworth = Disappointment
Its a matter of personal opinion,I like his broadcasting better than Madden,some people think madden was great,I didnt
And I see nothing wrong with what he said,most of it was tongue in cheek and if you watch till the end he doesnt say he has anything to do with young girls,just that from 14-18 they think hes great,once they hit 18 they know better,he was actually cutting himself down
