Al Michaels the gambler

[Vinnie Paz]

"That makes 83 points in this game!!!"

Collinsworth--You must have some happy friends

Al--"and some unhappy ones as well"

Al Michaels wants to suck Ed's rooster. Shut the fck up already. And the HD feed on this network is worse then this game!

[Reload]

Cheers to Al and his gambling!

[ChiLLx]

Al is a total degen or has degen friends

[lakerboy]

Remember when Michaels was so distraught when the earthquake happened in sf to delay the world series?

Sorry, didnt mean to offend the delicate sensibilities of this prestigious community. PA LEASE.

He referenced it twice. That was the second time. He said in the first quarter that according to "his friends", there would be about 81 points scored in the game. He was referring to the betting line but didn't want to say it.

He mentioned 80.5, said his friends thought there would be '80 points in this game, or maybe 80.5'. That's probably not the exact quote but not far off, classic.

i heard it and it almost sounded like he was going to say "80 and the hook" but i dont think he wanted to sound like a degen.

yeah that's what I meant, thought it was 81, either way he mentioned the betting total, referring to it as his friends.

I have heard him reference gambling before. It's such hypocrisy all around. If you go to CBS sports, espn, or Foxsports and check out their scoreboards, they have the lines and totals.

Get over it. Ray Lewis is a great man and your bitterness feeds him. Once you accept it and let go of your racism, you will begin to grow.

[Killer_Demo]

At least he hints that he gambles...makes me like him more now.

[frostno98]

Classic quotes, he had numerous through the years. I think they might had the under, because him and Colinworth were briefly arguing about the validity of Joshua Cribs TD which appeared he didn't completed the process of the catch.

[High3rEl3m3nt]

Sports needs gambling as does: hospitals need sick patients. The two can't exist in their current state without the other.

[Yotone]

I wonder if he just observes the lines or actually puts money down on them.

[Vinnie Paz]

Pretty sure he's betting, guy references the shit all the time lol. I remember hearing him once after a FG went through, "that kick just made a looot of people happy"

[yisman]

yeah he and musberger (over on ESPN/ABC) reference gambling just about every game they do

Kansas an 8.5 point favorite.

Musberger: "8 point lead,some of the number crunchers will be watching the final 1:20 very carefully"

Guy is a degenerate

During the same game the two announcers were talking about the Super Bowl and the other guy goes "I'm taking the 49ers to beat the Ravens...and the 4"

Musberger "Oh you mean 4 fouls"

[mcaulay777]

Love ALs refrences to gambling he is the only one to have the balls to talk about it all these other dudes wont come close to talking about gambling the duke,cinci game was a prime example would have loved to heard michales call on that last play.

Brent makes any game interesting when it's close to the number!

[pacocn]

It was nice of Brent to interchange number crunchers for degens

[pacocn]

The only thing i have been crunching is my wad into my wallet from my local

[jjgold]

Guys like Al Michaels are small time

[paco]

I love it. Is there a link to the full article?

[Ghenghis Kahn]

That's nothing. Espn is now having bad beat segments where the last play fukked up the spread.

[icecapper]

Decent article about Michaels from the past.
