I don't get the Jay Powell hate

[CochiseCowbell]

Keenum in the booth with Jim & Jay now.

Why is there Jay Powell hate? Never heard of such

 

[engie]

Mostly just comparing to Cohen probably... Who is as good as anyone I’ve ever heard in the booth. Amazing that we had fans listen to his interviews for half his time here that didn’t think he knew what he was doing.

It’s not “hate” we just don’t think he’s a very good color analyst.

I agree but he is getting more tolerable. The first time I heard him this year I thought someone staggered in from the lounge and It seemed Jim couldn't get a word in edge wise.

I disagree. Cohen is actually not that good in the booth. I heard him the other day and he tried the Tony Romo approach with predicting what he thought would happen before hand. He went about 0/12 in his predictions. Pretty meh. I think Jay does fine. He provides good insight from pitching point of view. Jim is still around but it’s not because of his ability behind the mic.

Jay is a good guy and great Bulldog. He definitely got better as the season went along, as should be the case.

He knows the game inside out and could end up being very good if given time.

Jim's broadcasts are MUCH better to listen to when he is NOT alone in the booth.

 

[Bucky Dog]

Damn guys it’s a new thing for him that he’s never done. He’s a great guy with great insight and he will find his groove as a color guy.

 

[The Peeper]

He is insightful but to the extreme, he just talks WAY too much. I feel like I'm listening to Jeff Foxworthy do a baseball monologue when he's on. I do like Cohen, I think he's pretty good

 

[Duke Humphrey]

Cohen is excellent in the booth

He could do it for a living if he didn’t have another full-time job

You got a low bar for color commentary. We’ll agree to disagree. I didn’t think he was that good. Great AD but bad commentator. Doesn’t have a good voice for it and I laughed the whole time at wrong predictions. As long as he isn’t wrong about the baseball hire prediction I don’t give a ****. He hires Mcdonell or Schlossnagle he can butcher every game in the booth for all I care.

 

[engie]

No offense, but you are wrong

Ah that’s cute. So If you Disagree with Engie you’re wrong. Sorry bud but Opinions are like ********. Everybody has them and Everybody’s is wrong from a certain point of view. My point of view is he kinda sucks and I’d rather listen to silence. Yours is you think he’s great. Nobody cares either way.
