When your the size of Jansen you can be frank and honest and not worry about stepping on people's toes!!!
No matter how big you are, smart people can still make you look stupid, but Jansen acquits himself quite well. He's able to make a bold statement and argue his way out of it. Well... except for that Super Bowl cointoss prediction... that didn't quite pan out the way he expected. But he's still a sharp guy, and that goes a lot farther in the broadcasting business than a lot of people think.

holt is looking for a job too... the ex athlete/current broadcaster i'm most impressed with is scotty pipen (comcast sportsnet chicago) he really knows what he's talking about and he's able to relate it well... and the worst athlete/broadcaster is charles barkley BY FAR!
wow, he's sooo bad.

I'd rather see him on ESPN than Micheal Irving.
You're kidding me right? Enough with the lame, lack-of-personality sportscasters already. There are meteorologists that get me more excited about football than Jansen. Irving is true to the game and it's fans. Even being an ex-Cowboy. :oink:

He can be true without having to scream and flail his arms every time he talks...

BTW, his name is Irvin, not Irving.
I'll take Jansen anyday over Irvin. At least Jansen can articulate, Irvin is horrible.
You know who's worse though? Brian Cox, ugh the guy can barely speak.

Right now too, I don't think the Redskins could have a better 'front man' talking to the media than him. He seems to be a real team leader, and doesn't say dumb stuff. Rather him out there than Sean Taylor talking to the media (no offense S.T.)

Jansen is one back, neck, knee injury away from being out of football permanently. Might as well set yourself up no to do other things.

Irvin just screams at the Camera. Half the crap he says doesn't seem to ring true. And hes a mic hog keeping other guys from saying there peice. I am not just saying this because he is a ex-Cowgirl. Personally i think Troy A. and Daryl Johnston have been doing a fine job of calling games.

Yeah I actually like Aikman as an announcer. Irvin is horrible though. All he wants to do is be loud and talk about how he used to play. Theisman is the worst though. (Sorry guys). If you've ever met him you'd know that he is egotistical jerk off and he sucks at calling games.
