'Violet was pushed to the wall!' is the exact opposite of 'Violet is shitting on Stephano'. Thats what a bad call is. Why say Violet is having issues, when Violet is owning Stephano? | ||

"Violet was pushed to the wall!" maybe not very accurate, but a little nicer than wow, violet just shit on stephano. What was Stephano doing this game, drinking captain morgan? I, personally, would rather he ask something like "What's up with Stephano? He did not seem himself that game... blah blah blah, speculation, etc." Commentators do this sort of thing all the time, or at least call it like it is. If you were watching a basketball game and the other team was getting stomped on and was down 30 points would you really want the color commentator saying "Well, they're really pushing each other to the wall?" That being said, I don't really have a problem with Total Biscuit. He clearly works very hard to do his job. I do think the casting standards for this community are pretty low and in a few years when more retired players are casting we're going to look back on a lot of these games and think of how silly a lot of the analysis is. | ||

Probably something like 'Wow Violet played that really well' or 'Stephano doesn't seem like himself today' or some of the other things people have posted in the thread. | ||
