Does Anyone Agree That Dave Wannstedt Is 1 of the Biggest Sports Blowhards?

Wannstedt, former Dolphins, Bears (DUH-Bears) & Pitt Panthers coach is like watching a Chris Farley/John Candy SNL character.
Kind of a caricature of himself. Talks out the side of his mouth like Popeye. Really animated. Seems to always make dumb points.
Wannstedt's in my top 3 sports analysts I figure is wrong 95% of the time & most resembles chalk on a blackboard.
One of "Dese, Dose & Dem Guys."

No, not Colin. I said Wannstedt was ONE of the biggest Blowhards - not THE biggest.

He and Leinart are pretty bad together. It is painful to watch them.

Was glad when he got canned from the Bears.

Hard to say, but Adam Zucker is possible & probably the uninformed Joey Galloway.

Oh yeah. Certainly. Gotta put Finebaum in there.
Gets to be really hard to pick the top 3. Now we know what the CFP Committee faces every week.
Pawwwl is likely a decent guy off-camera, but "on" is pretty condescending. Plus the ultimate SEC homer.

The hardest guy for me to listen to is Stephen A. Smith.

I once COULD NOT stand Stephen A. After a decade or so went by, I realized that he was just doing his schtick. I've seen him on other venues when he's much less playing "Stephen A."
Later still, I began to realize he does a LOT of research & makes a good bit of sense - many times (not always).
With Stephen A - it takes time. At least he works hard, unlike some that do NO homework.

I like Stephen A's info. I just don't like his yelling and combative 24/7 style of anger. I like the show with Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless way better than the show with Skip/Stephen A. Stephen A gets tiresome. He does know his stuff though.

You beat me to it. I turned on the TV this week and he was on that channel spouting his nonsense LOUDLY. I couldn't get to the remote to mute that jerk fast enough. He should have been fired before a lot of the other analysts when ESPN cleaned house recently, and we all know why he managed to keep his job, and it has nothing to do with knowledge or presentation or skill. Black privilege continues.

Wasn't Wannstadt pushed by some Tnetters as a replacement for Tommy.
