After all those concussions, he may need to use his fingers to count, but at least he has a degree.Kudos to former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Troy Aikman for finally completing his degree, 20 years after leaving college for the NFL. Aikman passed his final two classes and will get his degree in sociology. For the sake of NFL fans everywhere, hopefully Aikman puts his degree to use and finds another job instead of being Joe Buck's butt buddy on Fox NFL broadcasts. Not only would that save us taxpayers money, but it will save our ears as well. Aikman is Captain Obvious, he speaks to the viewers as if you were blind, which would work a little better if he was on radio, but he isn't. If a former NFL player is gonna take the job of commentator over some poor kid who actually went to school for broadcasting, I want more personal opinions. The man has been in the huddle before, I wanna hear why something happened, what's the coach/player thinking at that moment, etc. Very few former athletes are good at that (Jaws comes to mind), and others tell you too much, having that "I've played before, I know it all, you're a worthless nobody who knows nothing about the game of football and I'm gonna show you I know everything" attitude that comes off as arrogant showboating (there's too many guys like that to name, I'm sure Biggamekilla could rattle off a few names off the top of his head.)
Even if Aikman doesn't leave the booth, he can use his new area of expertise to study his social interactions with the same sex.
1 Randy Cross- games are unwatchable when he is play by play or color commentator or what ever the fuck he does. nice stache also douche.
ReplyDelete2 Phil Simms- do i really need to explain
3 Chris Collinsworth - everyone hates Chris.
4 John Madden - way overboard with useless info..think the game passed him by 5 years ago. was never the same without Summerall.
5 Joe Theisman- yes Joe we know you played for the Redskins and LT broke your leg in 1985.
Just off the top of my head..let me know if i forgot anyone glaring.
I do have to disagree with you about Aikman. I was always an Aikman fan growing up and i actually like listening to him broadcast games. Cant answer if he is gay or not but don't really care.
ReplyDeleteInteresting story about the gay thing on biographybase.com , it seems Barry Switzer planted the rumor of him being gay because he thought Aikman was trying to get him fired. Also called him a racist. FYI Aikman is married to a former Dallas Cowboy employee, who is female, and has 2 daughters.
ReplyDeletejust cause he's married doesn't mean he's sneaking off in his car, picking up random dudes and getting blown in his car. just saying.
ReplyDeleteWhy sneak around to get blown by a dude? I've been told a BJ from a dude is the same as a chick, so why risk getting caught. Now if you have the urge to be the one getting the shot in the mouth, go hog wild (and balls deep!).
ReplyDelete2 dollars to touch it.
ReplyDelete3 dollars for you to watch while i bend over and touch it.
6 dollars for a CJ.
If you gotta ask Big man, you can't afford it.
