What a distracting overtime.

Yeah, he’s certainly not for everyone.
He really gets to me. Then I listen to Harnarayan Singh a couple games and I’ve had enough of that. Need a real good PBP to emerge.

I like Jack. At least he doesn't sound like he popped a couple valium before the game like so many of them today. He does seem more geared towards a radio style of presentation. He could stand to talk a little less on a tv broadcast. Singh just flat out sucks imo.

Interesting--I actually really disliked Michaels when he was doing the games on the radio. His tendency for long winded digressions is not what you want when you can't see the action. I would silently scream at the radio "Buddy, I can't see the game and am relying on you for the description. Stop going on unrelated tangents and tell me what's happening". The worst was his goal calls. After being so used to Rod Phillips' emphatic "SCORES", it was hard to adapt to Michaels, who would sometimes call goals with such casualness it took a few seconds for you to realize someone had scored.
Now that he's on TV, I find his style much more suited to that medium, since I don't mind now when he does his digressions, since I can see the game and don't need him to hold my hand through the play by play. I can also see when a goal is scored so it doesn't matter so much how he calls it. Now I can more easily enjoy (or not) his digressions while I watch the game.
