When Sportscasters Add Nothing Of Value

[@stephenwodz7593]

"Both teams want to win this game." I swear an announcer said that before an NFL game.

In their defense, some NFL teams do what they call "tank" where you lose on purpose to improve their draft position. Unless things have changed, I'd guess 1/3 of the teams do that towards the end of the season if its not going to be a playoff year.

It is that kind of detail that makes his comedy priceless. Racking my brains trying to think which pitch meeting it was.

"Up until they lose the game, they are winning"

[@OmniscientWarrior]

We don't know if they are winning or losing till they have won or lost. So it could look like they are winning or losing at different times, but only time will tell, at the end of the game, which it is they are doing.

[@d4slaimless]

It is actually might be draw until they lose.

[@Lucas-fl6py]

I actually laughed out loud at nearly every line and the lingering shots on Ronny are KILLING me lmaoo

[@CM-pf1xc]

The way “they” are just repeating the same thing 😂 spot on

[@CyrilFiggis36]

If it didn't look like Ryan I'd have guessed that this was Michael Owen commentating. He's given us such insights as: "Whichever team scores more goals usually wins." "I love these players with two feet." And who could forget "If there’s a bit of rain about, it makes the surface wet."

[@elazayth]

I'd love for this guy to comment on my life, he sounds lovely and very informative!

[@Ricketator]

Words of wisdom

[@fedfed6485]

Yep, immediately thought that this is just Owen's quote adapted for hockey context.

[@pastafarian7779]

To be fair, the "two feet" comment is clearly indicating players who can "(play) with two feet". Now you might say, well all professional footballers can play with both feet. Yes, to some degree, but there are very few players who are equally good with both feet. Even less so in the modern game. Not that I'm here to defend Owen's commentating as a whole.

I love the book light stuffed under his headphones to look like a headset with a microphone. 😂😂

[@jw8160]

Good catch!

[@kjw79]

Thanks I wondered what was going on! Also the ties both exactly crooked in the same way

[@MSTRCMDR]

xD good catch, mmd

[@cloud5buster]

Fortunate that they had two identical book lights like that.

[@muhammadsyafiiq7203]

It's so spot on it sounds to me like a real commentary and not a joke

[@Aniaas1]

Commentator: "He's accelerating now.... which will mean he gets to the bottom faster... which will result in a shorter time overall" I heard this in the Winter Olympics during the middle of some snowboarding qualifying event.

[@heofonumheo3174]

When a comedian is is paid 75% less than a sportscaster but gives millions more people more entertainment.

[@tec5x5]

a 100%

[@waitselljones8068]

I..... I gotta be that guy. Sorry. 1. Ryan is being paid much less than that 2. He doesn't reach millions of more people 3. Sportscasters aren't meant to entertain

[@panda4247]

@@waitselljones8068 1. that's sad 2. that's probably true 3. in a way, they are (not by telling jokes etc, but they are providing additional value (information) for people to enjoy the game more. Sometimes the information is irrelevant or useless, but apparently, people enjoy the game more with commentary than without it)

[@MrBiggles53]

I blame the sportarchy.

[@blanktom6049]

when what? you didn't finish your thought.

[@biffstrong1079]

Come to play. I love the accurate description of the actual event that occurred. Best in between period interview that I've seen in 37 years.

[@thurainnanhein4292]

1:00 Ronny looks like he's about to cry any minute 😂

[@liamwalsh4008]

Golf commentary: ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... Ooh, and that is in the bunker. Gonna be a tough shot out of there if the ball is buried.

[@mustangman6170]

That was an excellent addition to this line of humor. I hope you get more of likes.

[@diamondly6250]

no its more like this Golf commentary: ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh!!! Ooh...😞

[@jelita_]

Actually it's super easy, barely an inconvenience

[@derekchristenson5711]

I cannot distinguish this skit from real-life sports commentary. 🤣

[@Cinnder]

That's the best sweaty and tired acting I've seen in ages.

[@conze3029]

The awkward pause after the camera cuts to the person interviewing the player was a nice touch

[@arielmccarthy4892]

I 100...no 110% love this whole skit❤😂

[@paulh2426]

Dear God that was spot on with just about 100% of the 110% of the coverage in sports 🤣😂

[@xaviermcgettigan8968]

Literally the only channel where I'm sad when there's no ad, I hope the Adstronaut is doing okay up there in Ad Space.

[@jackbeavis]

I got jumpscared by the lack of Ad-stronaut

[@tristanbrooks4755]

Only a Canadian would make this about Hockey on superbowl weekend! ;)

[@noncanot]

Superbowl? Is that some cereal? Or maybe some kind of US little league sport game? Sry but the rest of the world can't really relate to whatever kind of weekend you are having with your superb bowl of cereal.

[@kerbolax]

Lol Superbowl, the event famously so intensely followed internationally, there surely must be so many people who care about this religious holiday for americans

[@awesomeadam2667]

It's pronounced Superb Owl. It's an American tradition where we all gather together and intently stare at a rather fascinating owl for about 3 hours.@@noncanot

[@elazayth]

​@@awesomeadam2667 Ohhh where can I join in on this? I wanna see this owl too!

[@lilv47368]

Superbowl, a bunch of hit commercials, interrupted by some sporting event

[@WaterShowsProd]

That was so accurate for a moment I thought I was actually watching a hockey game.

[@SpicyJustice3466]

I love this chanel. 100 10 percent, rught right 100 percent. Cent by cent. Of percentages...

[@ThatAnArchyDude]

He really nailed this concept. Ryan George out here proving keeping a job as a sportscaster is super easy; Barely an inconvenience.

[@CaptainCat101]

I feel like this is what would happen if I was a sportscaster

[@anonymousthesneaky220]

100%

[@yuki97kira]

I would come in there and then....TALK. I would use my mouth to speak about the spurts

[@Zaarin1]

They're probably doing better than I would; they seem to at least understand the game. 😂

[@kolbywilliams7234]

This is what happens when anyone is a sportscaster. After a while, they learn to enhance their bs game to sound like they know what they’re talking about.

[@s.k.linnalitrpg3535]

What makes me sad is I am so indoctrinated by sports talk I already filled in exactly what all those empty comments meant for each team, their seasons, and how the game was unfolding

[@russianhorde]

I love the slight pause between the two sportscasters and the guy down with the player. Nice touch!

[@noize7932]

that lag was 110% accurate

[@gregrld]

You really came together for this video. All the Ryans stepped up to make it happen.

[@brucebaker810]

It's what ya gotta do.

[@tgguitarguy]

This is how it felt while watching the entire NFL playoffs

[@chessicahullum2896]

110%, If they had said something of value it would have had worth. but being that they didn't it had none.

[@SpicyJustice3466]

That's right Ron. A hundred percent​@@chessicahullum2896

[@Evanz111]

I love the flip side of commentators who read the Wikipedia page on each team and is just reciting statistics throughout the game.

[@willdejong7763]

So still adding nothing of value.
