Have anyone here listened to Eli call a game? Terrible. When plays would start you would not know what is going on until it was over. A radio play by play guy has to call the game knowing the listener can’t see. Guys back in the 60’s and 70’s before all tv were good. Like John Furgason, Mississippi State guy Kristol, the Ole Miss, Tennessee and Georgia guys were good. Sorry can’t remember their names but head over heels better than Eli Gold.

I'm not surprised that Eli couldn't take the hint and bow out gracefully. Icon though he is, he has always been a touch pompous, and sounded very much like a guy who's been told every day for 35 years that he's an absolute legend. I'm glad for the memories, but he really had gotten bad at his job and I have little tolerance for egos so big they take a crap on those who dare suggest they have passed their prime.
