Ah, geez, WWL, was it really necessary to burden us with the stylistic, non-stop sounds of Jesse Palmer for the bowl game broadcast?
Over/under on the number of times I yell “just shut up!” at my TV: 6.

“We remember the Sugar Bowl, I think it my junior year of high school, we let Alabama beat us twice,” Brinson said of a team that also lost to the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game. “We’re not letting Alabama beat us twice. In the Sugar Bowl in 2018, they… thought they should have been in the playoffs and lost to Texas.” -- AB-H, 12/27/23
Jeez, ESPN. What’s that a-but?

I gotta say, though, that’s a good crew. Palmer is an idiot, but Rece and Pollack are great.

Pollack has really come a long way in a hurry.

It’s just that he is ashamed of UGA, It seems!

His incredible hair is unbelievable though.

At least Samantha Steele will be gracing us with her presence. I feel like it’s an even trade off.

Tell send Pollack a Twitter message during the broadcast to sack him.

HaHa… But Pollack picks against the Dawgs too much for me. Dammit. I still appreciate him though.

He’s often right, though, when he does.
Look, the guy is paid to be impartial. He loves UGA, but he has to keep that out of his work. And he does a great job. I remember when he was working at 790 and people were yelling at him for being a traitor or something when he was advocating for Willie Martinez to be fired. Well, he was right. Personal feelings can’t be a part of it.

Then they must not pay the others to be impartial, because they’re not!

Pollack is far worse. He does know he is not a black guy, right?
His Ebonics are embarrassing. Palmer is a knowledgeable dude.

Based on the way he was dressed the handful of times I saw him during school, I’d say it’s questionable as to whether he realizes that.

Easy fix here, just be in the stadium. Tickets will be CHEAP right before kickoff…..
That’s my plan.

It’s not just that he’s a Gator, it’s that he still has a Canadian accent. Which would be OK if he were calling action for the CFL Grey Cup. For college football? It’s off-putting. (Unless you drink every time he says “aboot”.)

I don’t mind him that much, notwithstanding that he is a Gator. But, the dude either needs to learn how to tie a necktie or get a clip on.

Two choices: 1) attend the game in person; or 2) get an XM Radio subscription, mute your TV and pause the feed for about 10 seconds, and you can sync Scott Howard with the TV feed. Scott will be on Channel 91, or 199, or 202, or one a’themotherns.

I guess I’m in the minority. Palmer is one of the best on-air guys today.
