I respect his tenure but he has been horrible for the last 10 years

Which makes it fun to watch, for me

I haven't watched one game on CBS where I haven't laughed. The forward pass fumble was my favorite

It was certainly funny at times. I remember a play in which an Arkansas WR caught and run with the ball for 60 yards to which he asked Gary if it was an incomplete pass after he fumbled it.

He had some shining moments though. Not to excuse his full-verne moments, but the "answered prayer" call right after the kick 6 was tops.
