Gus Johnson is an automatic mute for me (by far the worst). Tessitore, Fowler and Herbstreit get to be too much later in the game. All the screaming on a simple first-down play is exhausting, and it only escalates as tight games go on. Throw in most sideline reporting and coach interviews, completely useless.<\/p>\n<p data-layout-index=\"5\">While Al Michaels gets a lot of heat for showing no emotion, I&#8217;d much prefer that style over screaming on every play. My two favorite play-by-play announcers are Tom Hart and Jason Benetti.<\/p>\n<p data-layout-index=\"5\">Kinsey: Benetti is great. He stays steady. Doesn&#8217;t over-sell the action. I have been anti-Fowler for years. I&#8217;m not sure what his deal is, but to me it&#8217;s always felt like Fowler feels superior to the common man, the fan who pays the bills. And Herbie is just spread too thin. I had to mute him Saturday night when he identified a Notre Dame safety as &#8220;No. 28&#8221; making a big play. No kidding, we all could see the number on his jersey.<\/p>\n<p data-layout-index=\"5\">That&#8217;s Luke Talich, who is not some grad transfer. The guy is in his fourth year playing for Notre Dame. Herbie should&#8217;ve known the guy&#8217;s name just based on a few days of research.<\/p>\n<p data-layout-index=\"5\">I cannot recommend Skycast enough.

It was the band, The Fixx.\u00a0 Super small venue too, and we were in the front row. We paid to sit up front because they put on a good show. Unfortunately, about four songs in, they decided to make a comparison between masked terrorists from the Middle East in the 90\u2019s, and the fact that they didn\u2019t think they would see them again in the United States. This was an obvious inference to ICE\u00a0 agents. It was right after those two deaths of the wack jobs.<\/p>\n<p data-layout-index=\"5\">Me and my wife had had instituted a no politics\/woke policy right before that. I don\u2019t go to concerts much\u00a0 and she finally coaxed me to go to this concert. She was very upset as well, and we both stood up and walked out right in the middle of a song. It was pretty obvious since we were in the front row and right in front of the lead singer. As we were walking out, we heard somebody say &#8220;F$&amp;k ICE&#8221;.\u00a0\u00a0 As I we\u00a0 were nearing the exit, one fan looked at us and said &#8220;where are you going?&#8221; And I told him I\u2019m not gonna stand for this political crap. In hindsight, I have tremendous regret I didn\u2019t stand up right then and there, just 6 feet from him when he said it, and made a big deal and got myself kicked out. It would\u2019ve been a better way to go out. Crummy part is as we hit the door, they started playing my favorite song in their catalog. Figures. Great part was my wife was in complete symphony on it instantly, and that actually was a wonderful bonding moment.<\/p>\n<p data-layout-index=\"5\"><a data-omtr-intcmp=\"fnc_outkick-sports_article_main-content_article-body_6_4574081\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/outkick-sports\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE<\/a><\/p>\n<p data-layout-index=\"5\">\u2022 Phil from Virginia shares: I&#8217;ve got one that predates even Brad&#8217;s 1979 one. In 1976, Jerry Brown was running for President and raising money by going around to concerts with his GF Linda Ronstadt and the Eagles. I saw the ad for it happening that night at the old Capital Centre in Landover, MD, went by my then-GF&#8217;s desk at work and said &#8220;wanna see the Eagles tonight?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-layout-index=\"5\">We saw the Eagles, Linda, Dan Fogleberg, Jackson Browne, and Joe Walsh before he formally joined the Eagles. Great concert, and I guess they hauled Jerry out on stage at one point, but I don&#8217;t remember anything he said.
