If I may, I'd like to point you towards AwfulAnnouncing.com. They don't review broadcasts like you're referring to, but to them the biggest story of the college football season isn't the upcoming playoff, but instead Chris Fowler replacing Brent Mussberger in ABC's lead announcing booth.

"Hot Rocks Polka."  Used to walk to and from school singing the entire thing in my head over and over.  Beyond "Satisfaction," that was pretty much my entire introduction to the Stones.

Sorry, but that particular version wasn't Weird Al.  He DID do "Stop Draggin' My Car Around" though.

Consistently and thoroughly.

Bob Uecker's passing will signal the end of an era for me.  He's like the irreverent uncle who always tells a few off-color jokes at Thanksgiving, especially when the game is out of hand and he needs to fill some time.  Fucking priceless.

My "Weird Al" Yankovic surprise was when I saw him in Wausau, WI on his Poodle Hat tour and he busted out "Albuquerque."  I'd heard that he did it one on the RWS tour (in Albuquerque, natch) and had no idea that he'd be doing it on subsequent tours.  Blew my mind, particularly since that giant, rambling opus was one…

Say it!

"Oprah, Uma…"

Is it bad that after reading all these examples of Simms fucking up, I realized that I never listened to what he said?  Like, all night?

I can support this conclusion.

Lighten up, Francis.

Are you the police?

Flex is only for Sunday night games on NBC.  Can't flex games to/from a Monday night because that would mess up a hell of a lot of people's schedules.
