He does a good job of analyzing a game. He just has too much Bama in him.

I know you don't understand. But way out west on the Pacific coast there is a state called California he was born there and spent most his life there over Texas.

Read this dummy from McElroy himself. You think living in Texas he could do this.

I've seriously been to over 500 Dodgers games and I've been to the Coliseum many times," said McElroy, a die-hard Dodgers fan who can recite the entire lineup top to bottom. "I feel like I've been to every stadium in L.A. except for the Rose Bowl."

So RT58 you claim McElroy is lying about living in California?

How many threads are you going to start about Greg McElroy? Give it a rest. He’s a color guy for the SECN. It’s such a dumb thing to obsess about like you have

Greg needs to fine another profession. TV is not for him or radio.

Guy is just terrible every time he opens his mouth. His morning show ratings are going down the drain. Guy has to much California in him for Alabama. He is culturally ignorant on understanding football culture in the south.

A lot of people claim they cut the volume off when he calls games.

His dramatics, along with his immature presentation, while delivering it in a grating tone will getcha every time.

Honestly our fans are mad because he doesn’t show biased towards us(he isn’t suppose to). But he goes out of his way to be unbiased and at times comes off as hating Alabama.

I think it’s a stupid thing for our fans to get mad about and think he actually does a decent job


In his defense, have you seen how much some commentators are raked over the coals because "they just won't stop saying good things about team X" - and then you tune into the game and team X is leading by 30? I'm usually like, "Well, what else are they going to talk about? The weather? What's on next? How good that guy's tackle was after Team X gained 40 yards?"

How in the hell did Gregg M get fired from his morning show with Danny K?


Did he get fired?

I thought he left on purpose.

Not sure, I could be wrong about the fired part.

He’s okay but some of his takes to try to seem unbiased are laughable. That late hit by the Vols on Bama Saturday is a prime example


Agreed on both points. He’s above the curve as a commentator. That late hit take was rough though. I think he probably didn’t get a good look live and then once he saw the replay didn’t want to back down from his original take.

I like him just fine.

Now, bitch arse Aaron Murray is another story. I bet his mommy brings him a juice box every commercial break.
