Sexton was about as wooden as it got. Frangie probably won't be the long term answer, but I have to imagine he might actually show some emotion now and then. I hear him on the evening drive home and have to admit, I have not picked up on the lisp many have mentioned. Will listen for it. As for a weak signal, I find the fm band 92.5 is much stronger than the 1010 am band. FWIW.

I'll give the new guy a listen in the preseason and give my opinion.



He's worse.

I'll give him a chance, just like I did Gene Smith.  Man, that feels like a very appropriate comparison for some reason.  Tongue

if so, then he won't last long. Step one removing Sexton from the PBP. 

 

Like someone else alluded to earlier....they said, going from Sexton to Frangie was like going from Garrard to Gabbert....well, Gabbert didn't last too long, and this year we should be getting the long term replacement. 

 

Thats sort of how I see the PBP thing shaking out eventually. 
Quote:Man, you nailed  it right there, he falls in love with his own sentences and repeats them, and he edits himself while he talks by starting and stopping and restarting.   But all that is okay, to me, it's just the fact that he's a Steeler fan.  What in the world moved the Jaguars to hire an avowed Steeler fan to do the Jaguars' play by play?   The guy has been here all through the existence of the Jaguars, and has refused to give up his allegiance to the Steelers.   I wonder if the Jaguars were even aware of this.  It's ridiculous.   Can we not find a Jaguar fan to do the Jaguar games?


Are there any Jaguars fans in the media...local or otherwise?


Hicken, IIRC, is a Dolphins fan. Prosser is a Falcons fan. Kouvaris I think, has Baltimore allegiances. Does anyone care about Lamm or Modica?

Do you get the Sunday Ticket up there or listen to the radio feed?  Just curious because I can't imagine the Jags are on locally, well, ever in Jersey.

I just snorted my drink from reading this!!! :thumbsup:
Has Frangie ever done any PBP before? He doesn't sound like a PBP person. He probably would be a lot better as the color commentator, I don't see how the game will be called with Lag & Frangie in the booth.

FBT, what are you, 5?  

 

Making fun of someone's lisp?  It's not even that bad.  Probably a defense mechanism from people making fun of your fat [BLEEP] in school.  

 

Anyways.....

 

Yes, Frangie can stutter and repeat himself over and over again, but overall - he's a likeable guy IMO.

 

Haven't heard him do PBP, we'll see how it goes.

I have, and he sucks. He sounds just like FBT makes him sound. Personally, I like his description because it's 100% accurate.

I listen to him on my way from work each afternoon..  It doesn't sound like that to me

About time someone else gives him a taste of his own medicine.

Haha. Spot on.

You know what, when you're right, you're spot on.  And when you're spot on you're right.  You know that?  You know what I mean.  When you're right you're spot on is what I mean.  When you're right.  I'm here to say that when you're right you're spot on.  That's what you are.

Frangie has done college football PBP for a few years with Gino Toretta. He's not very good.
I live in Fernandina the signal is fine

Frank reminds me of a little kid who tells a dumb joke and because they're a kid, you laugh for them....so they keep repeating the joke over and over again just to get your attention!!
I am looking forward to hearing the "Mangler" as his brain tries to keep up with his tongue in PBP.

Blaylock belongs on the sideline, not beluga.

It will be cute seeing Balou in a coat and tie on the sideline.

We may be all suprised by Game 1, then again we may be storming the Bank with tar and pitchforks.

 

There are so many things that feel just so WRONG about this move.

 

I am just about ready to resurect Hap Glaudi or Dandy Don
