I just find Mixon's style annoying.  If you listen to other broadcasts it seems like there's more immediacy and they're actually on top of what's going on on the field.  On our broadcasts it's like you hear Mixon making some pop culture reference or trailing off on some inside joke with the rest of the team, then you hear pads popping, and oh yeah that was McCaffrey up the middle for 5, 2nd down.

e: to stay on topic with the OP the worst guy I've ever heard call a Panthers game on TV was Torry Holt

Panthers radio downgraded when they got rid Eugene on color commentary 

I never heard Jake or Jordan but I like Coleman more. I actually believe what he's saying. You can only day "punch them in the mouth " so many times before it becomes meaningless

Nonsensical Metaphors. All the time. CMC gets hurt and you’ll hear something like, “playing in the nfl is like my old 78 Ford. It runs good for a while then the alternator gives out. This makes my maple trees lose their leaves early. “. Then he sits back like that is some amazing profound statement that we all relate to.  It drives me absolutely nuts.

so off the top of my head fox has aikmen, vilma, aquib talib, and ronde barber.... yeah I'm ready for Olsen to retire.

I don't mind Ronde. He actually knows what he's talking about. Aikmen is fine too, IMO. I wouldn't listen to Talib on principle---he's an ass! Vilma? I don't remember the last time I was listening to someone and said to myself several times a game, "This guy doesn't know what the (fug) he's talking about." Vilma is awful!

    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
