re: What's wrong with Eli Gold?

I don't think he has much enthusiasm for the job anymore since 90% of our games are blowouts.

He's been broadcasting for 48 years. He's been at Bama for 32, while simultaneously doing NASCAR and many seasons of professional hockey, minor league baseball, arena football, and the NFL. Plus hosting his own sports talk radio show for 20 years.

The guy is probably tired. It happens to everybody. He'll be 67 in a few weeks. He might just be ready to retire to his NC beach house.
