    Does Jim Lampley abuse his power?

    We all know the answer. But please discuss anyway.

    Lets articulate our thoughts like human beings and get into specifics.
    Talk about all the times that Lampley has engaged in blatant huggery and propaganda while abusing his bully pulpit.

    Exhibit A: his calling of the Cotto/Margarito fight.

    He had the blinders on in that fight despite the fact that his henchmen Kellerman and Steward continually checked his drunk ass.



    If you're a sloppy ****. Stay the **** out.



    Should we poll this?

    As I always say, Lampley couldn't call a 1-2 if he was sitting on the toilet doing both.

    He needs to be checked much more.

    He's a drama queen and a **** announcer.

      Lampley is terrible. He even cried after that Cotto fight Live on the air.

      His Jermain Taylor fight calling was putrid.

      His Pacquiao fight calling is even worse.

      "****, ****, huh?, you wanna go?, ****, cmon, ****, and another, ****, ****,****!!"

      Nuff said.

        Sometimes he's really bad, but other times he brings just enough comedic value, purposely or not.

          He's a good punch by punch commentator, but he has been making a lot of mistakes recently and yeah he really gets too emotional on live TV. The first time and second time was okay, but man he really gets worked up .

                Ive seen almost every hbo broadcast he's on & the number of pronunciation mistakes he makes are quite shocking considering he's a white american. Even when he describes the action he even makes mistakes in describing the action he's seeing. A lot of information he spews out are also wrong. Just watch all the big ppvs & his act is littered with mistakes. Im not even counting the brain fart ****! ****! for the pac clottey fight.



                Lampley is more shot & washed up than roy jones jr. career & lindsay lohan's **** combined.

                    **** **** flashback-




                    The woman who filed the domestic violence complaint against sportscaster Jim Lampley claims he repeatedly threw her against the wall of her apartment after drinking heavily and smoking pot. In documents obtained by TMZ.com, Candice Sanders claims that on New Year's Eve, Lampley and his son Aaron joined her for dinner. Sanders says she was engaged to Lampley, who lived with her in the apartment.
                    Sanders alleges that after dinner, Lampley "was drinking vodka and whiskey and became drunk."
                    Sanders, who was crowned Miss California USA in 2003, says in the complaint that the trouble began when she wanted to finish watching a movie. Lampley then "pulled me from the sofa I was on" and "began to yell at me and chased me around the apartment."
                    Sanders says at that point all hell broke loose.
                    "He grabbed me and threw me against a wall. He then threw me against another wall. He then threw me against the door and I collapsed."
                    Sanders goes on to say that 14-year-old Aaron saw her on the floor and she asked him to call the police. She writes in the document:
                    "Jim beat Aaron to the phone and kept Aaron from getting [to the phone]. She says Lampley then drove away with Aaron. Sanders claims she suffered head, neck and back injuries."
                    After channeling his inner O.J. Simpson (save for two murders and a book bragging about them) the 57-year-old Lampley was placed under arrest Wednesday night on one felony count of domestic violence. He was also arrested for two misdemeanor counts of violating a restraining order and dissuading a witness.
