Brandon Stokley is an awesome example of everything that is good in the NFL. He’s a big team-player, a hard worker and great role model for the younger generation.

Brandon Stokley’s Catch Redone In Tecmo

Mon, 21 Sep 2009 10:26:13 -0500

I happened to be watching this game & the catch was marvelous. Yes, marvelous as the capper to a good game & amazing in that very moment. But not marvelous enough to warrant “Immaculate Deflection” status that’s been thrust upon it. If we’re talking Week One plays, Polamalu’s one-handed interception was equally as impressive if [...]

I think people were split about whether they enjoyed the Gus Johnson call of Brandon Stokley's TD on Sunday, but the announcer himself went on the Dan Patrick Show today to defend his excitement. Via Sports Radio Interviews....“I thought I was gonna have a heart attack. It was the most incredible thing. I’ve seen a lot of great things in sports.

I really can’t watch this Brandon Stokley highlight enough times. Everything is perfect. The tip, the catch, the sprint into the endzone with a brief run along the goal line to take time off the clock; But especially the call by Gus Johnson. Enjoy your Monday, folks!

This miraculous Brandon Stokley play might have ruined me. Although it seems to have made Gus Johnson’s day. What announcer would you [...]

Mon, 14 Sep 2009 07:27:00 -0500

I've always been the first person to defend the boisterous Gus Johnson, but yesterdays call of the Bengals epic fail, was by far most over-the-top reaction I've ever heard.
