Now...if you agree with Pandy that Beyer is excruciatingly boring on TV, then argue with me on THAT! Don't argue with me about something that I never said. I never questioned Matt's "passion" for the game...nor did I refute that his passion for the game equals that of Beyer's.
I said that Beyer has SUBSTANCE...and you countered by questioning me on what I meant by that. And then you brought the Beyer/Carothers comparison into the discussion. Did that have anything to do with the "substance" that I talked about? Do you really need me to define what "substance" means, for you? When Carothers talks handicapping...does what he says have the same "substance" as when BEYER addresses the topic?
Tell me what you are disagreeing with me about...and then I'll argue with you.

I apologize if you were not referring to Matt in the following: "My "entertainment" comes from the genuine handicapping knowledge that the hosts possess...and the sincerity with which they relay it to the viewer. Beyer has SUBSTANCE...and I'll take that over "style" ANY day!" Seeing how the thread is about Matt you can certainly understand my confusion. No?
I still would like to know what you mean by "substance" when referring to what Beyer brings. I am not saying he doesn't bring "substance" whatever that may mean but you imply that it is something that others don't bring.
