True, he's easily excitable and on big plays you do hear him him cheering in the background. But, that's the only negative thing I can think of about the guy, if that does bother you. He practically lives at the stadium and is constantly around the team, so he always has pertinent insider info about personnel changes, injuries, club news, etc. And, if you're hearing some anti-Bengal bias from the network talents, then I guarantee you will not hear that listening to Dan and Lap.
For me, the positives far outweigh the negatives in a Dan/Lap broadcast. But reading thread after thread here complaining about commentators, perhaps some here might best be served by turning down their tv and listening to smooth jazz during the game.
I appreciate the reply - when you put it that way, I guess maybe I'm just being way too damn nitpicky LOL everyone has their quirks, but if someone is all about the Bengals like I know Lap is, I can get behind that. I should give them a listen during the AFC Championship. Who knows, it could completely change the way I watch football.
To be honest, I think everyone would benefit from listening to some smooth jazz (me included), and not only during football games.
