Why does JB on CBS pregame have a job?
He's been doing NFL pregame shows for like 30 years now. And like 10 years ago he started doing this, "Your NFL game is coming up neeeeAYYYYYY-EEEXT!!"
It was horrible and awkward the first time he did it, but he hasn't stopped. It's been YEARS, too. Also, what the **** else does this guy do? When Jim Nantz was the pregame dude, at least he did the Masters and the Olympics and shit. What the **** else does JB do? Nothing. He seriously gets paid to just do that all year? I hate this guy. Get him off the TV! Fire the tackling coach! |

Because they need a non-threatening, non-controversial Black guy on the screen to keep it from being a bunch of white guys.

Once you get embedded in sports TV culture it's hard to get fired unless you send a dick pic or something.
I actually kinda like him. It's like waking up and having Uncle Phil chat with you about the games that are coming on today.

He's a voice, a bona fide play by play guy who worked himself up from doing DC Bullets NBA PxP on radio.
Harvard Grad on BB team, tried out for NBA, then moved to DC with his PoliSci degree. Then went into sports commentary. |

I think his job is mainly just to wrangle the other idiots on the show and keep it moving, which is probably harder than it looks.

Somebody really needs to step in and do something about that hairline he's rockin. I'm surprised the other people on the set can keep their composure around it. Somebody needs to confiscate all his black shoe polish and stage an intervention. It's horrifying.

JB is OK. He's a smart guy, Harvard Grad. He's also the host on Showtime's Inside the NFL.
