Amazon looking to get the Manning brothers

[sharkymcwrath]

I like Romo and Collingsworth. At least they both know what they are talking about.

I tend to agree with you on many things but on this we stand miles apart.

Those two guys are the absolute worst in my opinion. Romo for never shutting the fuck up and Collinsworth for always blaming a player for a "blown" or "stupid" play instead of complimenting the player that actually made the play as being a great play.

I know there's a shitload of people that will disagree with me on this but I'll take the mundane Aikman/Buck duo over those fuckers any day. I just want to chill out with some drinks and BBQ and enjoy a good game without all that verbal diarrhea.

What exactly is your issue with Bezos?

The complete disregard for his employees, other than to mock them.

He doesn't pay taxes.

He doesn't donate much of his vast amount money to charity (despite his commitments to do so). He instead chooses to play astronaut. And he doesn't see anything wrong with that.

He even laughed about it after he got through with his cute launch.

Bezos could be Batman, instead he chooses to be a slightly uglier Emperor Palpatine.

Its' okay that we disagree and that others may, it's opinion. When Romo and Collingsworth call a game they make it so my wife can understand and she asks me less questions.

Not sure what you mean about disregard for his employees. Employee Benefits.

He does pay taxes just not what you or I for that matter thinks he should, but if he is within the rules or confines of the law I take no issue with it.

Why the hell should he donate money he has earned? I never understood that why people feel it's obligatory for the wealth just to give their wealth away.

Amazon confiscated tips given, turned it into hourly wage and were successfully sued for it.

Let's not snap into a political debate on an NFL board. If you want to debate about his lack of contributions (He hasn't even gotten to 1 billion of the 10 he committed to) then shoot me a PM or start a thread on the political board. Or I can.

The entire problem with his lack of tax paying is that the middle class and upper middle class foots the bill. While the lower middle class (his workers) are subject to never being able to move up.

I watched it once, I found it annoying. When I watch the game that's what I want to do not listen to two wanna be comedians. Let them stick to selling BBQ gear

Yeah I don't like the format. I do like the Manning brothers though and would like to see them actually in booth calling a game.

Never bothered watching.


Won’t be watching on Amazon either.

Again he legally paid what he was obligated to pay, and is not required to donate anything? Can we agree on that? To hell with a moral compass it has not bearing on what he's obligated by law to do/.

The Mannings are 1000x better than the actual MNF crew (Steve Levy is fucking awful) but nothing beats the mute button.

I agree you have to have a good color commentary crew but I don't want to watch a game in mute. Mute is for Kay Jewelry commercials

Or for fart porno when you're staying at your parents' house over the Christmas holiday and need to whack off in the bathroom.

Same reason I hate when Romo calls a game. He wants to make the entire thing about him instead of the game. I really have no idea why everybody likes that dude and I wish he would shut the fuck up for half a sec and take a breath.

And ya, I tried the Manning "cast" for half a sec and to no surprise at all quickly shut it off.

He really knows his stuff, though... like better than anyone else I've heard doing FB commentary. But yea, he talks too much.

Exactly. I prefer guys like them who talk too much, but really know their shit, to those who say dumb or wrong crap just to fill up airtime.
