mntwolves asked in SportsFootball (American) · 1 decade ago

Are all football sportscasters this clueless?

I didn't watch any college FB on Saturday, but when catching the highlights, this great comment was said for the Florida-LSU game: when Tim Tebow took a hit and fell on his butt, the newscaster said that he "took the hit, but showed that he is not affected by the concussion." Really? Landing on his BUTT shows that there is no effect due to a CONCUSSION? Sounds like this guy was confusing body areas, but if this shows his IQ, then maybe those parts are the same for him!

    Haha. I noticed the same exact thing. Simple proof that many sportscasters and networks show bias for certain programs and it's players. That was one of the hardest hits I've seen all year in both college and the NFL and I guarantee Tebow was still showing effects days later from that hit.

  • Here's the skinny on Football. Most of the goofs couldn't tell you the difference between a S-trap and a iso play and the ones that could don't get the lead jobs. Then throw in these do nothing sideline reporters saying something we already know. Hey guys i just spoke to the trainer and its doubtfull the RB will return... Back to you. No freakin kidding Erin Andrews(or insert here) we just saw the guys leg get snapped in two!

    Its just the love they have for Tebow. If any other QB had the same thing happen to them, they would have said the effects of the concussion made him not be able to escape the hit.
