BREAKING: Suits make terrible decisions



Well, Gus Johnson has officially left CBS sports. Which of course means we won't be seeing any more cold blooded calls during the NCAA tournament.

Who knows why they parted ways, but I have a sneaking suspicion that he didn't appeal to the "older demographic" To which I say SCREW OFF.

The article says he may become the NFL Thursday night guy, but here's to hoping he gets with ESPN and establishes himself as the premier CFB play by play guy and they team him up with Chris Spielman.

Here's a little taste of his football action.

(On a side note please listen to Fouts. Not only does he say Hall should have intercepted the ball, which is of course what every whistle toting coach will tell you is the exact OPPOSITE of what you want to do. But, he also praises Stokely for burning time off the clock and not scoring right away. Not unlike DeSean Jackson, and we all know how he was treated by the media)

But honestly, Imagine Gus in Death Valley, LSU vs. Alabama, surrounded by over 100,000 drunk Cajuns. Now that would be awesome.

Furthermore if you look at...


Brent: Hehehehe, ohhh yeah, Olllllllllllle Lattimer hear SPEAKING HIS MIND on CFB announcing.

But I tell you what Latty, You gotta wonder here if the Ollllllle cold blood killer, Gus, can really handle the prestige of College Football?

Monday Morning S--t Storm!!!

So this weekend it seemed like everyone went batshit crazy over Gruden's draft performance.

1. Told you
2. Well yeah, he was a coach as oppose to you know, a BYU Douchebag who just says random shit for the fun of it. (No offense to BYU or the Mormon faith)
3. Why are you watching ESPN instead of NFL network with my main man Mike Mayock?

Anyway it got me thinking about the emphasis we place on the people who provide us with sports information.

So, for the Shit Storm we are going to create the best broadcasting team for each sport. We've hated on broadcasters for so long that it seems fair to give credit where it is due.

My team for football.

Gus Johnson as play by play. (Keith Jackson has his own category)
Chris Spielman on the color.
Erin Andrews on the sideline.

And


Wait for it........

Bill Belichick in the booth.

I would just love to hear him mutter. "cover 3 right here" at random points throughout the game. I also think his "yeah smash route" line following Gus Johnson's Touchdowngasm would add a nice balance.

Shit Storm begin.

Some S--t went down!!!

OK, OK, OK let's just take a step back and analyze what went down the past couple days.

First we have the NCAA tourney. Personally I like Duke, and Icehouse pretty much summed up the feelings of the rest of you. However I feel like we're all missing the big picture. This tournament wasn't about the upsets, the last second shots, the glamour. No this was about one man taking his rightful place at the top of the sports broadcasting mountain. That man is Gus Johnson.

And now here's my excuse to post this video from the evil genius mind of Punte.

Please let him announce amens corner this weekend.

In other news Donovan McNabb got traded to the Redskins. Did you hear about this, have you heard about this? On one hand the news was awesome. Why? Well it completely overshadowed the douche fest known as Yankees/Redsox opening day. On the other hand it brought about hyperbolic garbage from both sides.

Let's put this into perspective. McNabb is a good QB who is starting to get older. His major fault is what I like to call the La La land syndrome. There are just certain times in game where he just completely shits the bed. The other thing about McNabb is that the past couple years he's had an outstanding receiving crew and a serviceable offensive line. These are things not typically found in The Beltway. Oh and one more thing per that article. Shanahan is not the guy who got all that production out of his line. The guy is Alex Gibbs, (OL coach) who put his own special twist on zone blocking.

The last negative aspect of this trade is the appearance of Redskins fans touting the return to the glory years. Oh you haven't met a Skins fan? Let me introduce you.



Keep it real Yo, Fairfax for life.

In other QB news The rams just cut Marc Bulger. I'd like to introduce you to the number one pick and savior of the St. Louis franchise.


/Breathes deeply.

KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN

Finally, opening day occured. El Hombre went 4/4 with two slama lama ding dongs and the Northside college transplants needing a trendy baseball hat's gave up 16.

All is right.
