Larry Michael really sucks

hooskins · 07-30-2006, 06:58 PM

I do not know if this has been a thread before(I am sure it has), but Larry Michael really sucks. He is very boring to listen to, and honestly quite annoying. His questions suck as well, they are stupid ones like "How does it feel to be a Redskins", "How is coach Gibbs", basically stuff that we already know, and he never really asks good questions. I am sure someone from above in the organization tells him not to be controversial, but still he needs to atleast keep me awake. At one point, he said that he had been getting complaints that he doesn't push it, so he tried to be more pushing, but he didn't do shit. Seriously he really sucks, and needs to head out.

I wish I was in charge of a radio station so that I could put myself on the air.

BTW, I agree with you hooskins.

Sam, Sonny and FRANK!!!!

No disrespect Larry.

I like[d] Frank way better.

cpayne5 · 07-30-2006, 07:51 PM

I used to listen to Sonny, Sam, and Frank every single game. I haven't listened to the radio broadcast since Larry Michael replaced Frank with himself. I won't listen to them ever again until Larry has been replaced. I hate the guy.

I agree. Hearing Larry Michael shout "Touchdown Washington Redskins" isn't the same as when Frank did it. Larry Michael gets excited about the littlest things. "OMG THE REDSKINS JUST GOT A FIRST DOWN. YEAHHHHHH!!!!" and his weekly grass updates.

hmm... i feel cheated.

MTK · 07-30-2006, 10:38 PM

I think he's alright. Then again I didn't grow up with Sonny, Sam and Frank, so obviously you local guys have more of a connection with that broadcast team.

MightyJoeGibbs · 07-30-2006, 10:58 PM

It could be either he doesn't realize he's being boring or that he's ego driven and thinks he is secure in his job, that he can get by just trying to come across as a fan favorite. I'm glad somebody said it.

saden1 · 07-31-2006, 02:18 AM

Put me down as someone that has no love for Larry. Like others said, the man is boring and his play calling is pretty shit if you ask me (too many mistakes).

Giantone · 07-31-2006, 08:51 AM

Not trying to be stupid here ,why don't you guys start a petition ,maybe have people sign it outside the stadium and send it to the danny or bring it up on the John Riggins show.

Larry is doing exaclty what he is told. Everyone needs to get off of him. I don't care for him much, god knows I rather be listening to Frank Herzog.

Snyder, (who I happen to really like) tells Larry what to say and Larry says it. How can you dislike the guy when his hands are tied?

Larry Michael is a snake. He got to where he is by backstabbing. I've heard that he forced his way into Snyder's inner circle, even. The relationship between Snyder and Michael isn't what everyone expects it to be.

Okay, now we got something payne, if that is the case then there is a lot more to the story, but I think a lot of people are crushing him for the stuff on the surface, his reporting and not his past.
