Todd Blackledge is my least favorite kind of sports announcer: the innane liar. All of his analysis is wrong but it's also what you might assume was right if you just tuned in and never watched either team before.

Plus, doesn’t seem to think the game is much fun!
I muted it pretty early on.
he was a shit QB, too.
I have a soft spot for Blackledge b/c he looks like one of my doctoral profs, but yeah…
The same energy of the cousin watching the game with you who thinks he knows ball but REALLY doesn’t.
His analysis is with such confidence I’m inclined to believe he believes what he’s saying
I always feel like maybe he’s watching a different game than I am, particularly with his weird insistence that things are much closer than they actually are.
better or worse than the "explains every detail like the audience has never watched football before"
Him trying to gaslight us all into believing Marsh had a big block on that last Haynes run was infuriating.
I clicked on Seth’s comment to say exactly that! They even showed a replay that was just Andrew Marsh not touching a soul on the play.
The fact he kept hedging with each replay down to "it's good to just be in front of somebody" was hilarious.
I just realized he's probably AI.
Did you know that Bryce Underwood just turned 18?
Spot on.
He's the ChatGPT of color analysts. It sounds close enough to believable while lbeing wrong at an amazing rate
I miss the Todd’s taste of the town
His son went to Hope, so it checks out.
Hahaha
