irish21 0 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 He's the most immature of any of the announcers. It's like, dude, you're not in college, anymore. You're a professional commentator. Put your biases aside... I know. I can't believe I used to like him when he played college ball. He's turned into a real doucher. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
irishwavend 6 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 I know. I can't believe I used to like him when he played college ball. He's turned into a real doucher. I love Palmer and Herbie and was hoping Pollack would be a third addition to that duo in a similar mold. Unfortunately, he's a lot like Trev Alberts, if anybody remembers that castaway.

mcdougal93 0 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 I remember alberts. He is busy ruining university of Nebraska at omaha's athletic program. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

IrishCalves 0 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Not to mention, his fellow Dawg in Jarvis Jones remained seated thanks to Te'o. Dude, it's your job to celebrate the accomplishments of student athletes rather than succumb to petty biases and the jaded thinking our era promotes in sports. It really is a lot easier to be happy for someone else than try to tear everyone around you down on an AWARDS NIGHT. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BI5224 10 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 He goes out of his way to jab notre dame every chance he gets. Exactly. He's from the $ec, works for B$pn, which happens to be a network that promotes the $ec conference more than any other. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dsnack34 10 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 I took it as a little bit of hateraid. I don't think he was taking a jab at Te'o but he is still a dick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jlgyork 10 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 I'm not saying I like Pollack, that he is the best or smartest analyst, or that he isn't an SEC Homer, but he doesn't hate ND, just like ESPN doesn't hate ND. He absolutely gushes about ND's front 7 anytime he talks about them, but isn't shy about pointing out that the secondary is weak point of the defense. This same topic coming up over and over gets a little old. He says pretty much the same stuff that every other person, that isn't an ND fan, says and has said all year, but he isn't like Desmond, who just picks against ND for spite.

notredameroom 10 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 I just think when someone hears anyone talking on TV hating on ND, it resonates much more. It's almost subjective listening. They could spend 55 minutes of a 1-hour program hating on something else, but five minutes of poor comments about ND and OH , IT'S ON!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

OklahomaIrish 10 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 I wasn't the least bit offended. ESPN basically put on a Notre Dame extravaganza. They didn't have to invite Holtz and Parsegian. We won so many awards I was almost embarrassed. Almost. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NDJoe06 0 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Ara should be there if he is receiving an award... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They didn't have to invite Holtz and Parsegian. We won so many awards I was almost embarrassed. Almost. Oklahoma Irish is spot on. I did have the feeling of, "man, I bet all the ND haters now are like, ESPN LOVES NOTRE DAME, this is a two-hour Notre Dame love fest. And what do us Irish fans do? Talk about how we think Pollack is a "meanie face." Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GunSlinger 0 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Another thread jumping on a guy and ESPN for not loving ND enough. So tiresome. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
notredameroom 10 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 In the OP's defense, I believe a mod changed the thread title... you are correct, rocket. I put "meanie face" in quotations because I know they had to change the original title ... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NDhoosier 11 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 The rest of the show was a ND love fest, I will not deny that, but doesnt negate Pollack's unprofessional comments and that is what this thread is about. Yes, he is a ND hater, if you watch the college shows, you will come to that conclusion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, he is a ND hater, if you watch the college shows, you will come to that conclusion. His comment weren't unprofessional. too many here are sensitive to what he says. So they were taken as a cheap shot. We'll just have to agree to disagree. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
