Uh, except that's not what I did there.
Whoops. Gave you too much credit....

It happens; I understand.

Now they have to have at least 4, sometimes 5 or 6, and since everybody has to get a chance to pontificate the shows have been extended FAR longer than they need to actually cover the content. Then throw in 'special comments' from some failed comedian just for grins. Sorry, but their failed attempts to make the pre/post-games shows 'entertaining' kind of ruins it for me.
So I guess I agree in general. They have seriously diluted the talent pool available.

Don't you dare talk bad about Kearly!
I don't like how that bastard uses semicolons. :thfight7:

I use them correctly (or at least they are technically correct, though sometimes just using a period and starting a new sentence might work better). My real problem is run-on sentences, and sometimes a semicolon can be an accomplice to that.

He's a baseball guy from a baseball family, and he has absolutely no business whatsoever doing the play-by-play for NFL games.
Annoying as hell.

And despite that, he's somehow even worse at baseball.

Shows what you know.
Along with Dan Fouts, he's actually always been one of the game's best.
Dierdorf give sound, reasoned analysis of every play, and he doesn't come across as an arrogant football snob when he does it.
Mike Mayock is a good example of a football snob, always taking about what the guy who just caught the last pass ran at the combine, where scouts thought the guy would go in the Draft, what the guy ate for dinner the night before the Draft.
No one gives a spit about any of that, Mike "the NFL's Dick Vitale": JUST CALL THE DAMNED GAME.

Comma splices are where it's at, don't you think?
