Well that usually means that it's a particularly important match compared to the ones played before and possibly even after depending on how the tournament system works
In their defense, some NFL teams do what they call "tank" where you lose on purpose to improve their draft position. Unless things have changed, I'd guess 1/3 of the teams do that towards the end of the season if its not going to be a playoff year.
100% guarantee that these announcers aren’t giving it 110% in their announcing. As a matter of fact, I’m about 75% sure they’re only giving about 62.5% percent effort.
Many years ago (2009 I believe) I was watching Bama play Tennessee and Gary Danielson, when speaking of the Bama quarterback (McElroy), said, "If you don't include all the incomplete passes McElroy has been extremely accurate today." Good job, Gary. Good job.
This is every sportscaster ever. Every coach interview. Every player interview. I once heard a player - I forget which sport, but he was a pro - say, "Well, I think we just need to make fewer mistakes," and I did not let my sports-fan husband forget that for a long time.
Pure genius 😂😂😂 The accuracy is hilariously maddening 😂😂😂 That delay with the head nod for the rinkside reporter and the sweaty out of breath demeanor of the player were chefs kiss good! 😂😂😂
If it didn't look like Ryan I'd have guessed that this was Michael Owen commentating. He's given us such insights as: "Whichever team scores more goals usually wins." "I love these players with two feet." And who could forget "If there’s a bit of rain about, it makes the surface wet."
To be fair, the "two feet" comment is clearly indicating players who can "(play) with two feet". Now you might say, well all professional footballers can play with both feet. Yes, to some degree, but there are very few players who are equally good with both feet. Even less so in the modern game. Not that I'm here to defend Owen's commentating as a whole.
That's most definitely a callback to a previous sketch there, let's review that step by step in slow motion replay and several times from any possible angle
you really did write a comment in which you state, that you are a sportcaster who ads nothing of value an I just want to comment...... thats what you wrote up there.
I am 110% watching 100% of these videos. I am taking these videos one video at a time, because this is the Ryan George channel, and I want it more. It really comes down to me executing a view and putting more likes on the board. I only had two minutes to view this video, so I had to make the most of it. At the end of the day, it all boils down to it is what it is, but it isn't over until it's over.
"Yeah it's really a team game, we went out there in the first period and we really gave it our all and I think we just want to go back out there and seal the deal for Canada"
I think this is how they sound to everyone, some people just seem to mysteriously love it when the sports guys ramble aimlessly about what everyone is already looking at
He really goes the extra kilometre! He’s from Canada, so I felt metric French spelling was appropriate. There’s one pitch meeting where screenwriter guy uses the word “route”. Producer guy replies also using the word route. One of them pronounced it the Canadian Way (root rhyming with toot) and the other the American Way (rout rhyming with about). It is that kind of detail that makes his comedy priceless. Racking my brains trying to think which pitch meeting it was. I’m going to guess the Phantom Menace because it involves a discussion about trade routes … Confirmed! If you start that pitch meeting at 35 seconds, he says “blah blah taxation of trade routes to outlying star systems.” 😂
Ive heard this exact conversation about a new quarterback. "Hes going to want to get points, you know, hes not going to want to fumble or mess up". Thank you for describing what competition is.
think about it though... Imagine a hockey game where nobody speaks. Just an hour of gameplay and not a single person going "this guy passes to that guy, sets him up, AND HE SCORES!"
I've never been a sports guy, but when journalists went on strike years ago, I started to watch Hockey because they were just playing the ambient sound of the arena. It was enthralling!
I remember hearing about how awkward Sumo Wrestling was during early Corona. Nobody but the wrestlers at the arena meant you could hear all the body noises
And of course the coach pull-aside interviews that add so much. "We're just not playing to our standard right now" "I don't pay attention to the records and media hype. Every win is tough and we're focused on the here and now" "It's not any one guy, its on me and the coaching staff as much as the players" "The only way we'll hold this lead is by keeping our foot on the gas." "We've had some good plays, but we have to play the whole 60 minutes"
I'll never forget the mid-game interview when the Oilers were losing the Stanley Cup final to the Hurricanes. One of the players basically said, "Yeah, there's no excuse for us. I don't know what to tell you."
The best part of these skits is that Ryan is only SLIGHTLY exaggerating. They're so close to the reality, which is why they are so freaking hilarious. Well done yet again sir.
My buddies were all playing pool sucking all the sucks and we out loud went into a “what if Ryan George was calling this game” No joke… hours later this video dropped.
That was absolutely on point, bc it made me zone out immediately 😂 It’s like reading your horoscope… it’s going to be a year. According to some rocks in space you’re going to have good and bad days.
Shooting home runs really helps the quarterback. Same with icing 110% travel for the shortstop (assuming shortstop has no hole in one strike in the key)
Who is the audience for mindless sports announcements? Those people who are extremely social and cannot physically stop themselves from talking, even to a disembodied TV sports announcer. They should move the announcement audio stream to a secondary dub, so the rest of us can watch the game in peace.
Ryan really has his head in the game and is focused on the fundamentals. He's waited all year for this, and he's taking his chance. It's a beautiful thing to watch. Poetry in motion.
"They might be thinking, somewhere in the back of their minds, of taking a knife to the ball, vacuum-sealing it in plastic, and mailing it to a YMCA in Tajikistan, but that's just not on the table right now."
Reminds me of Bedazzled when Brendan Fraser’s character became a basketball player. “Well, you know, ya just gotta go out there and give it 110%. Uhh, you wanna play good, you try to play good, and…well, I think we played good tonight.”
When I think of Bedazzled, all I can think of is... Liz Hurley... outfits... so... I'm sorry. Back then, Liz Hurley was 11/10. My brain doesn't continue thoughts well to form when think of.
THAT'S the name of the movie!! I have been trying to remember it for MONTHS now! ....I still don't know why I suddenly wanted to remember the name... just that I wanted to and couldn't...
We don't know if they are winning or losing till they have won or lost. So it could look like they are winning or losing at different times, but only time will tell, at the end of the game, which it is they are doing.
I remember one day my dad was watching golf and the casters’ audio feed wasn’t working, and I swear to god the experience was 100x better, like it made watching golf almost enjoyable. It turns out that when you turn off the nonstop old white dude asmr, it’s extremely relaxing to look at grass and trees and listen to the wind blowing and birds singing.
I..... I gotta be that guy. Sorry. 1. Ryan is being paid much less than that 2. He doesn't reach millions of more people 3. Sportscasters aren't meant to entertain
@@waitselljones8068 1. that's sad 2. that's probably true 3. in a way, they are (not by telling jokes etc, but they are providing additional value (information) for people to enjoy the game more. Sometimes the information is irrelevant or useless, but apparently, people enjoy the game more with commentary than without it)
this is so awesome! my favorite part is around 1:42 when the rink side announcer is subtly nodding his head waiting for his cue to start blabbing. this whole thing is spot on.
Commentator: "He's accelerating now.... which will mean he gets to the bottom faster... which will result in a shorter time overall" I heard this in the Winter Olympics during the middle of some snowboarding qualifying event.
I love the pacing of your videos 🤣 I’m always chuckling halfway through and actually laughing by the end, though I usually think to myself “This could be either really funny or really boring” before clicking.
They really got on those skates, Alex. They skated with sticks in their hands, or clubs. They really clubbed that ball, the puck. The puck flew, I saw it fly, so that all the cats watching the TV at home can try and catch it with their paw. That's what it's all about, Alex.
Superbowl? Is that some cereal? Or maybe some kind of US little league sport game? Sry but the rest of the world can't really relate to whatever kind of weekend you are having with your superb bowl of cereal.
Lol Superbowl, the event famously so intensely followed internationally, there surely must be so many people who care about this religious holiday for americans
It's pronounced Superb Owl. It's an American tradition where we all gather together and intently stare at a rather fascinating owl for about 3 hours.@@noncanot
Golf commentary: ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... Ooh, and that is in the bunker. Gonna be a tough shot out of there if the ball is buried.
Omg love it!! ❤😂 I just had this conversation with my husband recently after we heard a sports caster during a football game say “they just have to handle the ball” (like, no 💩🙄🤪)
@@KanohiVahi that depends on the specific type of sports ball! Sometimes both teams get just as many sportsball points and then they both don't win or lose
