X games commentators

I actually can’t take this people. The riding of Zeb is crazy and if they say Steez one more time man I’m gonna lose it.
 
I don’t understand at all why they have people commentating who know nothing about skiing/snowboarding. It’s honestly embarrassing like what other sports broadcast would do anything like that?!

Who are you referring to? Snowboarding is Craig mcmorris and skiing is Wallisch and Maggie, they all certainly know a lot about their respective sport.

ESPN doesn't run xgames anymore, it's run by a different company and ESPN simply licences it to run on TV.

I would of had no idea I just figured ESPN had full control/rights
 
I thought Tom did a good job and has definitely gotten better at it over the years whoever the other guy was made it difficult to listen

The commentary this year was definitely an UNREAL on the Thayers Hype Meter

Not gonna lie I was hoping sombody would get "good". I know it's just a graphic but woulda been funny.
 
Everyone complains about the 2nd guy in the booth but most don't understand that said person is the leader of the duo, they need someone who is experience to speak proficiently, follow a script, wont miss any sponsors reads or anything and can send to break, come back from break, improvise in a pinch, etc

you cant just toss two skiers in the booth on a xgames production.
 
can we all take a moment to thank x games for not inviting stoney mcblaze?? i didnt think anything very notable positive or negative happened as far as commentary goes. but I also only watched ski events lol
