Seriously, how bad is he at announcing games? Give me your ideas. I couldn't think of creative one-liners, so I'm asking for them from anyone describing how bad he is.

I liked him on the Today Show, but when it comes to broadcasting athletic events, Gumble is no Timmy Scarborough.

Let's put it this way...I can't remember what bowl I was watching but I find Terry Gannon a more interesting broadcaster than Bryant Gumbel (and Gannon is known more as a figure skating announcer)

I'd rather listen to Joe Morgan, Tim McCarver, and Theisman together calling a game.

You're right TTL...I'd mute the game if those three were in the booth together.

Matt Vasgersian is the only good NFL broadcaster on TV.

Yeah, I said it.

I like Matt on my baseball video game I know that...Gumbel is horrible. There i said it. I feel bad for Chris Collingsworth because he is pretty good. I think Bryant comes off as a high society stuffed shirt trying to relate to us common folks and not doing a very good job. Most of these guys are millionaire on TV or at least doing ok financially but Gumbel comes off as a Country Club member or something.

well bryant gumbel just doesn't seem to be knowledgable about football... i feel like its a joe schmoe who is good with words in the booth...

and as smart as chris collinsworth is....he makes comments in a "i know more than you and your opinion is stupid and invalid" way....and it annoys me...

To use a quote I heard once:

"I'd rather pull my pubic hair out one by one as opposed to listening to Bryant Gumble call a football game."

Gumbel brings much needed class to the booth. And he is better than Greg. I actually think he looked good the other night and has shaken that pompous image that I think he had on the Today show.

I say just hire Frank Caliendo and he can do his John Madden. It would be both comical and entertaining
