Does Mark Jackson have the worst catch phrase in commentary?

[100grandman]

"Momma there goes that man!" :wtf:

Not to mention the fact that he's clearly a Laker fan, and drops some of the dumbest comments during a given game.

[phoenix18]

He is just trying to be original. Give him a break.

[bagelred]

Tell me about it.....

Mark Jackson.....you're better than that!!!!!!!!!

[phoenix18]

To me, its better than yelling what the player just did like most tv people do. Lebron WITH THE DUNK!!!! Nah really?

[RainierBeachPoet]

He is just trying to be original. Give him a break.

but it is not original

on the tom joiner show, there is a blurb of a little kid who innocently (and comically) says it. it is the inflection from the kid that makes it funny

when jackson does it, it aint funny

[bballnoob]

To me, its better than yelling what the player just did like most tv people do. Lebron WITH THE DUNK!!!! Nah really?

He does that too. He just uses twice the amount of words.

[JtotheIzzo]

I am impressed with the fact that he can call a game with Kobe's nuts in his mouth.

That is some skill.

[BFRESH44]

"You're better than that" is the sh*t, though. I drop that atleast 5 times a week.

[IcanzIIravor]

"Momma there goes that man!" :wtf:

He's obviously a Devin the Dude fan.

I always finish it by adding 'with the brew in his hand!'

[Gevz2kX]

I don't like that saying either. I like most of his other stuff though.

[truethat23]

I actually like it. My friends and I who watch basketball use it with one another everytime one of us does something good in our lives.

[praneel]

Mark Jackson.....you're better than that!!!!!!!!!



haha

i kinda like it though. It is original, and he even got jvg saying it.

[GiveItToBurrito]

"Mamma there goes that man" is lame. I'd rather see him switch to one of the following:

"Heaven to murgatroid!"
"Oh my stars and garters!"
"Come on! I mean, COME ON!"
"GET TO THE CHOPPA!"
"SEXUAL TYRANNOSAURUS!"
"Delicious."
"Suck my diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii iiick!"
"Watch out for the big girl!"
"See way beasting!" (my attempt at phonetically spelling something in Spanish)
"That's-a spicy meatball"
"Groovy."

How about this one:
"Alright, let's do this. LERRROOOOOOOOOYY JEEEENKINNNNNNSSSSS!!!!!"

[CantStop]

Stop hating on Mark Jackson. He calls it like it is. GOAT announcer.

[The_Yearning]

its only bad when someone not named mark jackson uses it.

[Jordan-esque]

Better than hearing "BINGO!" everytime you watch Clipper games.

[SayTownRy]

my friends and i use this one for just about anything:

"That right there is a veteran move, from a big time player."

you can alternate "veteran" with "big time" too. illage

:pimp:

[Jordan-esque]

Mike Tirrico's "Georgeous" (or however you spell his name)

"What a gorgeous play!"
"What a gorgeous shot!"
"What a gorgeous block!"

Uh.

[Knicks101]

How about "Kobe Bryant is the best player in the world, and I'd love to suck him dry."

That's my favorite Mark Jackson quote.

[lilbeastnani]

The worst one is, "__________ with the Beyonce move. To the left to the left."

[lilbeastnani]

:pimp:

He also says "That was a grow man's move"

[stephanieg]

The Mark Jackson drinking game!


Take a shot if he says something along the lines of:

"I'm fair, but firm."

"He's a winner."

"He just gets it done."

"When his number is called he's ready."

"They just gotta come out and compete."

"Just because [Player A] is better than [Player B] doesn't mean he can't come out and outplay him."

"...and it's not even close."

"Momma, there goes that man."

"He's a knockdown shooter."

"Excuse me, I have a meeting with the rim!"

"You're better than that!"

"GOTCHA!"

"Allen Iverson, pound for pound, is the best player in the game."

"Don't take your frustration out on the refs, take it out on the rim!"

"Come get in my poster!"

"NOT ON MY WATCH!"

"That's a grown man move right there."

"I'm a truth teller."

"The best player has to set the tone for this team."

"When his number is called he's ready."

"...if you come out and compete anything can happen."

"He's really forcing the issue."

"Time and time again."

"My goodness!"

"That's the Beyonce move. To the left to the left."


Down the entire bottle if he says:

"Kobe Bryant is the best player on the planet."

[SCY]

Mike Tirrico's "Georgeous" (or however you spell his name)

"What a gorgeous play!"
"What a gorgeous shot!"
"What a gorgeous block!"

Uh.

That's Mike Breen. Tirico's the black dude with Hubie Brown.

[lilbeastnani]

That's Mike Breen. Tirico's the black dude with Hubie Brown.
Doesn't he usually say "pretty play" and "ohhh tough shot"?

[sportsfan76]

what about that other dumb a$$ phrase

"That was a grown man move"
