Chris Russo Archives - Awful Announcing

Chris Russo confused by ‘goofy’ ‘Inside the NBA’ All-Star Game sendoff: ‘They’re licensed next year, to us!’

"You’re gonna see them next year, what do you mean goodbye? They’re not going anywhere!"

"I don't like things that have a fakeness or WWE feel to them. They had three fights in nine seconds."

"I thought you were going to be a layup for me!"

"The game was over. Sometimes you have got to say it."

"I’m gonna be straight. I’m gonna be honest, I’m not gonna get personal. And more importantly, I’m not trying to disrupt the business."

"We’re not stupid! Sports fans are smart! They’re sophisticated!"

"CBS did poorly. What an atrocious job at the end of the Buffalo-Kansas City game there on Sunday afternoon"

"I'll tell ya, these halftimes are a complete waste of time."

"When the NFL and R&B singers collide."

“Less is more, and I think most announcers in football have never learned that lesson."

"The Doggie had gone international!"

"Who was more integral to the New England Patriots’ two decades of unparalleled success?"

"I would've traveled hell or high water, anywhere in the world to go to that premiere."

"I learned how to deal with it and I’ll tell you this… I’m a much better talk show host now than I was 20 years ago."

The blunder deprived fans of some meaningful Week 18 games.

"And Netflix with their lineup, they got 9 billion people in the broadcast booth. … I mean it's absurd. Call me, I might go!"

"He's damn lucky the real Mad Dog's dead."

"This guy is an aspiring sports analyst."
