I gave you a plus one. I kind of feel this way. He (Larivee) Doesn't give a good description to what's going on, in my view. The "dagger" comment is ok. But overall, he doean't really sound like he cares. Irwin and Mcgee NEVER made you wonder "Is this GOOD or BAD for the Packers?" You KNEW in their voices which way it was.
Larivee was an announcer for the Bears. I don't think he has the connection with "our" team that Irwin and McGee had, and it shows in his game calling.

I may be in the minority, but I'd rather not listen to a biased announcer even if said announcer is biased towards my team.

The thing I don't like about Wayne Larivee is when he gets excited in his voice when the opponent does something good. It kills me! I think whoa yes yes wait a tick wtf!!

I notice that about every radio announcer....not just the Packers'.

But yes, it annoys me, too. I've often wondered why they do that.

7) The Packers won 7 of their final 8 in the regular season. They finished ranked 2nd on defense and 6th on offense. The Packers defense ranked first with 30 interceptions from the pressure packages, first against the run, and first in turnover differential.
