I cannot wait to hear Rowdy’s commentating. He is so articulate and profound. Why do other networks not hire him?
They can’t cover the insurance, in case he actually does have a heart attack live on TV. Too be fair, I like his commentating, but at least for me there is some overly theatrical moments. I’m sure it works well for other more targeted demographics.
Hopefully he’ll keep the lap count on the distance races so he won’t pull an NCAA 1650 during which he thought the Penn guy who went on to win was being lapped.
I cannot tell if this is a sarcasm or not.
If it is, it’s brilliant; the best sarcastic comments are always the most vague ones.
