Who Let This Guy Talk?
This morning on Sirius NFL radio- I had the unmitigated displeasure of listening to Shannon Sharpe babble on and on about his knowledge of football.
Is it just me, or do you find yourself wanting to strangle young and pin their tails to a moving truck every time you hear this guy talk? He sounds like he's currently eating a mouthful of watermelon while he's giving his side on the cornerback situation in Green Bay. He sounds like he's swallowing a jug of marbles while dancing on the grave of the Lions defense. I'll admit, sadly enough, he's a little entertaining. But, I find him more irritating than entertaining. He sure the hell abuses the word, "ain't" a lot. How did this guy ever get a job on the radio is beyond me. Aren't there like half a million kids in colleges all over the country anxiously awaiting their time at the radio and TV who at least have a command of the English language without sounding like a chinese delivery guy who burned his hand with an iron? Shannon- please, puhhhhhhhhhhhhlllllleeeeeeez- SHUT UP! There....now Cosmic is all cosmic again. |

It's like he's got a mouthful of marbles. If you can't speak clearly, you have no business working in a field that is based on speech.
And that's completely ignoring what he actually says, which almost as painful as the manner in which he says it.

I am biased, everytime I think of him, the Monday Night game comes back like a bad dream.
He also looks like a horse, he should just whinny instead of trying to speak a language that he has no command of. |

That should be "of which he does not have command" Sticking up for the statistically greatest tight end to ever play the game

Although I respect Shannon's forthrightness and knowledge of the game he is not 1/10th the announcer his brother is/was?

Don't like him, but the guy had me rolling on the CBS pregame this past season.

His brother knows his shit and is articulate... can't believe ESPN fired him (or didn't renew his contract).
Shannon is a mumble-mouthed goober.

As bad as Shannon is normally, I bet it'd be great to hear him speak with a mouthful of novacaine.
