Two week in a row ED has blown the call on a Nebraska Player.

Both hits were legal.

 

- Both players were looking at the player when they were hit, and were hit from the front - not a defenseless player.

- Both players led with their shoulder pads - even though the helmets made contact right after initial contact or during initial contact.

 

Case 1 - Eric Martin was IN FRONT of the Oklahoma state player. The player was NOT defenseless (unless you penalize the OK State coach who put a player on the field that had multiple concussions). Martin led with shoulder, yes the helmets did hit, AFTER the shoulders hit.

 

Case 2 - The QB is NOT defenseless - he is looking at the NU player that is why Gabbert's (6'5'') helmet came DOWN and hit the smaller (5'9'') players helmet.

 

Ed read the rules -

GBR!!!!

 

 

Ya know, if you are going to call out an announcer, then please get the statistics right. Courtney Osborne is 6'3, not 5'9. A wee bit of a difference there.

 

 

Thanks for the correction. I will ask you for help in the future "trouble".

 

GBR!!!

That's hilarious! I saved a screenshot of that page since it'll be fixed but I have it for posterity sake.

what do you mean 'fixed'? it seems accurate.

[omahahusker]

Someone post the screenshot please?

he was a producer for 'the king of kong'? that is a great movie.

Go to the following website http://espn.go.com/espn/contact to contact ESPN and send them a complaint about Ed Cunningham. If they get enough complaints about his biased announcing and targeting of Nebraska players as "dirty players" maybe they can make him stop.

[Crashman44b]

Done

[Hercules]

We should just load the inboxes of EVERYONE at ESPN, until all of ESPN turns on him because they're sick of getting complaints about him.

 

About to email Ubben.

Surprised me too.

 

He can redeem himself in my eyes if he does one thing and one thing only. During the next replay of a bit hit he is broadcasting, he must say "Donkey Kong kill screen coming up."

If Ed doesn't like the bigger faster harder way of football now a days, maybe he should regulated to only analyzing pee wee football.

[bhamHusker]

If you browse through that page's history, there are some other gems to be found.

[Army Husker]

Now that is funny right there...
