How much do HBO suck dog **** lately?

[Wan Long Pong]

I hate to say it, but this thread has been done before. Probably several times. The only HBO commentators that bug me are Larry and Lennox. I actually rather like Lampley, Papa, and Kellerman.

So if it's a repetitive thread, why read it?

If you don't want criticism, dont make such a trolling type of thread, just asking for anyone and everyone to come in.

Who said I didn't want criticism. Two people have come into the thread stating they have no interest in said thread, so I merely asked why.

Unless there's a new rule that you have to read every single thread in NSB, I can't understand it.


EVERYONE PLEASE STOP TAWKIN' TO ME, I'M OKAY!

Because I enjoy reading and posting on these forums. I could care less that you made a repetitive thread, I'm just letting you know.

Mate, it's COULDN'T care less. If you could "care less", it means you CARE.

I hate commentators generally anyway, but normally I respect HBO's efforts. And yes, I know SKY are **** too, but not only am I not even talking about SKY, Jim Watt and co. at least have the excuse that they do their commentary from the special needs bus. Last week they all talked about how Moby was adjusting to Sergio Dishinez. I've only seen Sergio once but noted after seeing him once only how he sags in the middle rounds, looking for his second wind. If I can see that and I'm a total ****, how come experienced pros can't?



Here's how I rank the HBO boys in order of ****itude:

Max Keller****:
Me BEING a total **** is a modern day CLASSIC that's REMINISCENT of John H STRACEY again José NAPOLES.

Lennox Lewis:
What's going on with this pro lately? Last week he remembered to say "definitely" and "you know" every 15 seconds, but forgot to talk about jabs. This week he talks about jabs but forgets to constantly drop the D-Bomb. It seems a long time since he won the Oscar for this performance:



Jim Lampley:
HBO's ****e-talking house boy, a man who always tows the company line with mom's apple pie in his gob. "We've got a new heavyweight champion of the world... AND HE'S AN AMERICAN!!!!" The "****... ****... ****" debacle was a new low.

Manny Steward:
Decent enough, but set in his ways. Ever heard Manny say during a fight "I've actually changed my mind here"? No, nor me.

Harold Lederman:
Good for comic value only, the first time I heard this eunuch squeaking I thought it was either an April Fool's joke or a Disney cartoon. It beggars belief that a serious boxing broadcaster would hire a man who either sounds like a minor character from a cheesy Fat Yank sitcom or an epileptic ******. Lederman turned 70 this year, but his balls have yet to drop - JIM!

Larry Merchant:
I have..................................... a lot.............................. of respect.......... for Larry...................... but he's.............. got so old.............. and slow............... that when.......................... he's finished.................... making.................a point....................in the...............first round............................... the fight is over.

Bob whatever his name is: b
should be.

The only one I have a serious problem with is Lampley. His bias clearly comes out in his commentary which looks very bad. Most commentators have bias at times but his is the most blatant. And his blow by blow sucks. Sometimes he'll score punches for the fighter getting hit. Especially if it's the fighter he's biased towards. The only thing he's good for is excitement which he does add to the telecast.

TS is just venting. I can't comment on the subject since I don't have HBO.

[Wan Long Pong]

Well maybe I do care. <3
