Emmitt Smith’s Lack Of English Gets Him Demoted

by Cowboys

Poor Emmitt Smith. ESPN decided to can Smith from appearing on the NFL Countdown program, and will replace him with the much more well-spoken former player, Cris Carter. ESPN did not entirely ditch Smith; he will appear on a few shows.

Smith’s announcing skills have troubled so many folks that he even has become a topic on Yahoo Answers!

The infamous “sharp as a whistle” comment is just one of hundreds Smith made in his short career as an announcer. Hey, being a sports announcer on television is not easy. There is a lot of pressure and ego involved in it. But Smith sure gets a lot of flak for trying.

Madden WAS awesome. Now he's senile and bumbling and he rambles on about crap. Half the time I think he's calling a game he's remembering from twenty years ago.

He should have retired with Pat Summerall.

Looks like Emmitt got debacled. LOL. I love the guy, but he is not the best speaker. As for Madden, I like him a lot. I don't understand why people dislike him.

Thank God. Deep down you know that the only difference between Emmitt Smith and Bryant Gumbel as broadcasters was that Smith used to be on the Dallas Cowboys.

Now...if they can only force Madden to retire, life will be good.
