The only thing that makes me sicker than watching Florida win the national championship, is listening to the announcers hero worship Tim Tebow while it happens. Tebow played a good game. He did not play the greatest game in the history of football and he is not the greatest human being ever to walk to planet. Yet you really wouldn't know this from watching tonight's broadcast. Thank god the announcers tonight saw past the facade of a lowly championship game and recognized the contest as the metaphor for today's society that it truly is. On multiple occasions tonight, Thom Brennaman prefaced a comment with the phrase "we live in a society". Brennaman was successfully able to blow the game out of proportion while simultaneously professing his desire to blow Tebow by saying, "we live in a society today full of cynics and pessimists and I truly believe that if you spend even twenty minutes with Tim Tebow your outlook on life will be improved."............... I am no longer spelling my name with an "h" because of this asshole.
This same hero-worshipping virus befalls FSN announcers Bob Errey and Paul Steigerwald when they witness the greatness that is Martin Brodeur, or any team of analysts worthy enough to be in the presence of the USC Trojan best-in-the-history-of-the-universe defense.
Puke.
