Agreed--watched Nigeria vs Spain mens basketball yesterday. The commentator (though, to be fair, was by himself) sounded like me, making random comments at the TV. It was comedically amateurish.

Also--can someone tell me what this "big mistake" was that Elliott Friedman made? People are consoling him all over Twitter but I don't know what the actual incident was. Thanks in advance!
