      As a Vikings fan.. it’s so difficult to listen to PA. He’s such a homer that he exaggerates things. Like… a okay will happen and PA screams “Cold blooded connection to JJ!!!! 8 yards on first down!” Then he’ll say “2nd and 5” and you’re like huh?

      Pfft if they can't win it for Bud Grant and all those 70s Vikings, you can't find enough to win it for Paul Allen. Vikings are cursed. I come to accept that long ago. Bad seasons followed by heartbreaking seasons and the pattern continues. We aren't negative just realistic. The only thing the Vikings fans have is hope and that always ends in a loss.

    • @squidparty2000
      @squidparty2000 ปีที่แล้ว

      ​@@puppethound Yeah, you guys have had many great teams that could just never get it done. The 70's Bud Grant teams, the explosive offenses in the Randy Moss era with Cunningham and Culpepper, that one year with Brett Favre where you were so close to the super bowl (sorry the Bears beat you to give the Saints the number 1 seed lol), then there were the recent Vikings who would spring up one year with great defensive units only to fall completely flat the next year after disappointing in the playoffs. 2015, 2017, 2019, and 2022 all great teams but there's always a better one apparently.

    Even as a Packers fan I cant help but admire Allen. You cant bottle that enthusiasm and if you could it'd be worth millions. He is sour when the fan base is sour and he is insufferable when the fans are insufferable. He and his voice embody the Vikings fans and the highs and lows of the organization. Respect.

    As a Vikings fan, hearing his voice yell "Thouchdoooown!" With that sort of vibrato for the past two decades, is just how football should sound to me. As iconic as "Goooooaaaal!" in soccer. Plus getting to listen to his radio show and interviews, I've probably taken him for granted, but it's great to see he's getting national recognition. I know he got a lot of attention for his call of the Minneapolis Miracle, and deservedly so, I'm just glad more people are getting to enjoy his work.

    I added this to another thread, but I just wanted to say that I am totally blind, and Paul is in my opinion one of the best football announcers out there.
    I’ve tried to watch football on TV, but I’ll be honest, some of the TV commentators don’t do a very good job of describing things very well. Because they think that OK you can see the play you don’t need any description or anything. And the fact that Paul put a lot of emotion into his broadcasts means he’s a true fan, and I would love to hear a broadcast from a true fan rather than someone just pretending to be a true fan and just doing a job.

    My favorite PA line was "Their punter's terrible" 😂 last season in the 33-0 comeback game

    I just feel the pain from hearing what happened to the vikes for their entire existence and you can basically hear it all in the disappointment in Paul Allen’s voice I love him

    As a Vikings fan, I’m proud to say we have the best commentator in all of Football. Man, God has gifted this man! I have been listening to him through every heartbreaker, and he really emulates the entire fanbase.

    I was explaining PA to my coworker and he was so confused why I knew the Vikings announcer. Not every team is lucky enough to have a PA, we are and we will love him until he retires.

  • @aznnp77

    My favorite call was the Favre TD against San Francisco. The Washington Commanders radio announcer is pretty good too. You may be hearing about him in the years to come. His name is Bram Weinstein.

    PA is the most honest awesome announcemer EVER... I used to be gone for some of the best games while racing and I had to listen to the Vikings in between heats or whatever and it's almost more fun than watching 👀 the games he paints a perfect picture of what's going on it's almost like your there...

    Lebron only just found out what all of us Vikings fans already knew. Now the rest of the world gets to discover this talent. Our home stadium pxp guy is also the best
