Here's a brilliant idea: how about the commentators talk about the athletes and not themselves? I do not care when your first competition season was, nor who you competed against. What I would like to know is the position/standing of the athletes.
Don't know much about Adrian, but Panchik is definitely not a beer league Athlete... Seriously impressive Athlete. Id bet Adrian is 10x fitter than you as well.
Can you do better.? All you can do is be critical and moan. You are so weak you can't even watch the games you have to nitpick commentary. Typical looser in life you are Bozo
Anyone else feel like the commentator with the hat talked more about himself more than the athletes background? As an Aussie, Tia will always be my role model, but back in the day, Hayley Adams was KNOWN for being one of the best runners, I don’t think he even mentioned it?! Trying to talk about her catching Tia on the bar… if she was going to catch her, it wouldnt be on the bar it would clearly be on the run??
Yeah, did he not notice that on the first four runs Hayley closed the gap on Tia? I did, so thanks for the background on Hayley - given Tia's running background, Hayley surprised me surprised.
The people covering crossfit are always idiots. We watch the announcers and the same two athletes as if there's not 18 other people on the floor. Crossfit is a joke of a sport for a lot of reasons, but this is one of them
This year for chrismas, i wish for a coverage that is professional during a crossfit event. The folks at HQ should watch the Olympics this year to see how its done
This is way better footage to be able to see the run than the live show. The commentary needs to be more about the athletes. Come on guys it’s about the athletes and not the commentators. Please lesson learnt and use Torian pro as what good looks like. We never even heard from the top athletes after their heat. To reiterate, we are here for the athletes and not the commentators.
These commentators need to commentate on the event and athletes instead of running their mouths talking about bullshit. Shut up, tell us what we’re watching and the athletes background. Soo annoying. They all need to take lessons from Torian pro
I don't normally comment but damn this commentating was so bad. Nothing matched up and it was like the athletes were an after thought. Please clean it up today crossfit. BUT HALEY freaking crushed it! So happy for her!
This is how Brooke keeps herself off the podium. I wouldn't even think I could do what these women do but Brooke never takes that extra step. Tap and go for the final 10 would really take her to the next level. Even if she tapped 3 dropped tapped 3... Something, ANYTHING, to get her to that next tier.
The commentators make this nearly unwatchable not being a hater but Jesus the man in the black hat didn’t draw a breath. The focus should be on the athletes
Panchik had almost nothing to say at times: the lead host threw him a slow pitch and it was one word answers. It's not his forte, mind you, so he was better in the second heat.
So last week we didn’t any meaningful coverage of event 1 but the semifinal Tia’s at and suddenly we have drone footage. Also for the love of god show the athletes not the commentators.
If you watch the live event they don't do the drone footage etc. They released this after its finished for some reason, they did the same for last week
This just in!!..due to overwhelming demand..the commentators will now be on-screen full time discussing events, discussing events they were in, gardening and cooking tips..AND..personal hygiene dos n' donts..can't wait..gonna' be so much fun for the ladies..your fave guy sharing his inner most secrets with you!..Wow!!....yes?
Alsooo, Tia’s singles technique was the same as Jeff Adlers.. and she did it first… yet he called Jeff’s so skilled, masterful etc, but didn’t talk the same way with her….. I dunno anyone notice this or am I just losing it? 😂 I’ve just watched the last 2 weekends of semis which were really good
This is baffling to me. How on earth do they have this many angles but the live coverage had only one birds eye view? This was the most hyped event with Tia returning and you can't cover it properly? I'll cut the commentators som slack since they could only see the athletes for the clean and jerks, but the coverage itself is shocking to me.
You all DISRESPECT THE ATHLETES by not doing a proper play-by-play, or calling out their names. I've never seen such disrespectful coverage of a sport. These are people who have put everything into their craft.
Everyone complaining about the commentators discussing other things you need to réalise that during the live feed they couldn’t see the athletes when they were out running! They had to fill the air somehow. Listen carefully when the athletes come back inside Conway describes the action to a tee.
@jean-bernardtheard569 sorry, I've seen enough competitive Crossfit to know coverage is a joke. From commentating to covering more athletes than toomey and whoever happens to be next to her, it's pathetic
Damn, I thought the comments were all probably being harsh. But yeap, would be great to hear more about the competitors and less about the commentators.
Welcome back Amazing Haley Welcome back Queen the GOAT Please stop showing the commentators during the race We here for the athletes not the commentators 🙈
It’s annoying that camera was even showing commentators I came for the athletes. In Brisbane we only saw commentators between the heats. I don’t care enough to see commentators
Wow the camera man run the entire way following Brooke. Nice cardio man well done. 👍🏼🙌🏼 sadly they don’t show athletes enough. We don’t want so see the commentators
Brazilian commenters and transmission are SO MUCH BETTER!!!! Nobody cares who you competed against or what your Games were like in 2011 or 2012. Please SHOW THE ATHLETES!!!!!
I recently started doing crossfit and I love it. i was tired of training like a bodybuilder. I am not sure if its possible to build a physique like these athletes naturally
It absolutely is possible. Anybody who says it isn’t, just isn’t dedicated enough. But it does take extreme attention of detail to nutrition, training, and recovery. Favorable genetics are also helpful
literally hundreds of comments asking to see the athletes and their names come up on screen and not the commentators - what on earth compelled you to change the format? CHANGE THIS ASAP
I'd enjoy commentary on the different running shoes the athletes are wearing. We know a good bit about "crossfit shoes", but running shoes are a bit foreign. Would be cool to learn a bit more about them.
CrossFit please please please can you get some better media people!? I don’t want to see the commentators I want to see the athletes plus Iv got no idea how 90% of the field is doing!
Haley & Tia were incredible and battling it out!! I'm glad I know how CrossFit works now and that's because Sean Woodland is so clear at explaining the course in the intro, breaking it down as it goes, giving a little backstory on the leading athletes and athletes who have been historically competitive. This commentary got worse as it progressed and it's a shame. If this was my first CrossFit I'd never get into it. Someone in the CrossFit team needs to learn the viewing/entertainment experience (for newcomers because that's always the bar). How do they experience this for the first time and want to engage or see it live. Adrian seems almost disinterested in what's happening. Gassed for Haley though, I've been excited about her progress for this games! Edit: Cutting to commentary just makes it all the more worse. We're not watching them. Commentary is auxiliary, humility allows you to recognise that and play your role best for the sport... Aight I'm done. It's just so frustrating to listen to when what you're watching is actually exciting.
Here's a brilliant idea: how about the commentators talk about the athletes and not themselves? I do not care when your first competition season was, nor who you competed against. What I would like to know is the position/standing of the athletes.
"Let me tell you all about when i was great"
Ya no shit👍🇨🇦🏴☠️
Yeah, they definitely peaked already in life.
Totally agree!
Here's an even more brilliant idea.
Shut up .?
You are never bigger than CrossFit games.
BOZO
How do we have these AMAZING FEMALE ATHLETES kicking ass and these two beer league athletes walking down memory lane. Focus on the athletes!!!
The dude on the right never shuts up and is reliving what he believes is his past glory.
Don't know much about Adrian, but Panchik is definitely not a beer league Athlete... Seriously impressive Athlete.
Id bet Adrian is 10x fitter than you as well.
Can you do better.? All you can do is be critical and moan.
You are so weak you can't even watch the games you have to nitpick commentary.

It's too bad we know Tia took BEDs. It takes the shine off for me.
yep. That's Adrian Conway for ya.
Yup he does like the sound of his own voice
He's consistent..like this at every event. Super annoying.
Yeah, did he not notice that on the first four runs Hayley closed the gap on Tia? I did, so thanks for the background on Hayley - given Tia's running background, Hayley surprised me surprised.
Pls show the athletes during heats more and less the commentators 🤦♀️
Does this happening with the male athletes
The people covering crossfit are always idiots. We watch the announcers and the same two athletes as if there's not 18 other people on the floor. Crossfit is a joke of a sport for a lot of reasons, but this is one of them
How about using women announcing for women events!
🎯 Like what sport even shows the commentary as it's happening⁉️
Welcome back Haley!!! Glad to see you competing once again.
These commentators are really bad. This should be about the athletes competing and not them. Show more athletes,less commentators.
Too many "bro" moments
Tall poppy syndrome
TIA IS BACK!!!
Watching Haley smile and dominate after taking a year off is the most warming thing
Yup .it's the CROSSFIT EMOTIONAL GAMES for you.
Just smile and you've won weaker people's hearts.
Bozo
This year for chrismas, i wish for a coverage that is professional during a crossfit event. The folks at HQ should watch the Olympics this year to see how its done
It'll never happen. Crossfit doesn't listen to the viewers and then wonder why their sport doesn't get taken seriously
Believe it or not I want to see the athletes, not the commentators. Hope you read this
Tia! She’s BACK!
Please stop showing the commentators. I'm not here to watch them.
This is way better footage to be able to see the run than the live show. The commentary needs to be more about the athletes. Come on guys it’s about the athletes and not the commentators. Please lesson learnt and use Torian pro as what good looks like. We never even heard from the top athletes after their heat. To reiterate, we are here for the athletes and not the commentators.
Its too happy to look TIA on the winning run..... Congratulation to all contestants , especially hailey... Wonderfull strength ....
THE QUEEN IS BACK!
That was beautiful, I loved watching Brooke, and Tia, and Haley! ❤❤❤
You spelled Danielle wrong, hahaha
Tia's back, LFG!!!! Best thing I've seen in ages.
I don’t get it! If they had the capacity to catch all these angles, why not broadcast them during the actual event???
EXACTLY!!
Agreed. The viewing was poorly executed
Every year is the same
Agree!! I don’t wanna see the commentators nor a birdseye view? WTH 🤦🏼♀️
Looks like a post event edit. Nice to be able to watch it filmed well like this
These commentators need to commentate on the event and athletes instead of running their mouths talking about bullshit.
Shut up, tell us what we’re watching and the athletes background. Soo annoying.
They all need to take lessons from Torian pro
Holy cow! Why did they show the commentators so much
I don't normally comment but damn this commentating was so bad. Nothing matched up and it was like the athletes were an after thought. Please clean it up today crossfit. BUT HALEY freaking crushed it! So happy for her!
Can someone please ask the commentator in the hat to either shut up or talk about the athletes who are competing.
Been trying for 3 weeks...he sucks
Ya, he was super annoying the whole time
He's awful. I don't understand how he got this job
Sooooo happy for Hayley go girl your awesome as
This is how Brooke keeps herself off the podium. I wouldn't even think I could do what these women do but Brooke never takes that extra step. Tap and go for the final 10 would really take her to the next level. Even if she tapped 3 dropped tapped 3... Something, ANYTHING, to get her to that next tier.
CrossFit Games, Wow, this made my day brighter! Thank you!
The commentators make this nearly unwatchable not being a hater but Jesus the man in the black hat didn’t draw a breath. The focus should be on the athletes
Rather not have commentators next year. Silence would be better than these guys just talking about themselves.
Sadly they didn´t talk about what was happening during the event, but about the past ... really dissapointing.
Why aren't they giving a line-up of the athletes? I'm looking for certain athletes that I watch to see.
Production quality is terrible. No excuse to have no real graphics. We are three weeks into the semifinals and this is the best CrossFit could do?
@adamfeder7125 it's a joke. Always is.
I hate it when they focus on certain individuals instead of EVERYONE. No one wants to see Brooke the whole time ffs🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️ Gooooo TIA!!! 🇦🇺 ❤
That guy barely let Panchik finish a single sentence… why invite such a legend and keep interrupting him during the whole transmission?
Because he isn't a legend like Scott.
Panchik had almost nothing to say at times: the lead host threw him a slow pitch and it was one word answers. It's not his forte, mind you, so he was better in the second heat.
Because competitive crossfit is a joke. It's beyond me why they can't manage their events better than they do
Awesome Tia and well done Hayley. So proud of them both. It hasn’t been an easy path for either of them.
So last week we didn’t any meaningful coverage of event 1 but the semifinal Tia’s at and suddenly we have drone footage.
Also for the love of god show the athletes not the commentators.
If you watch the live event they don't do the drone footage etc. They released this after its finished for some reason, they did the same for last week
I know, so crazy that they want to put out footage of the most successful CrossFit athlete ever!
Loved watching heat 2! So glad Tia is back 🎉
Brooke looks like absolute machine
wonderful job of announcers making this their platform and talking little about the actual event going on
So good to see Haley Adams competing again ❤👌👌
This just in!!..due to overwhelming demand..the commentators will now be on-screen full time discussing events, discussing events they were in, gardening and cooking tips..AND..personal hygiene dos n' donts..can't wait..gonna' be so much fun for the ladies..your fave guy sharing his inner most secrets with you!..Wow!!....yes?
How about some women commentators for the women’s competition????
I wonder why this never occurred to them!
Stop showing the commentators !! I wanna see my favorite athletes, the women’s division ! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Great 👍 Commentary,sure . Pretty much engrossing and a constant narrative.
Thanks 👍 guys😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Alsooo, Tia’s singles technique was the same as Jeff Adlers.. and she did it first… yet he called Jeff’s so skilled, masterful etc, but didn’t talk the same way with her…..
I dunno anyone notice this or am I just losing it? 😂 I’ve just watched the last 2 weekends of semis which were really good
Your digging way to deep
@@username-kn3oh you’re probs right.. just thought it was odd!
This is baffling to me. How on earth do they have this many angles but the live coverage had only one birds eye view?
This was the most hyped event with Tia returning and you can't cover it properly?
I'll cut the commentators som slack since they could only see the athletes for the clean and jerks, but the coverage itself is shocking to me.
Scott Panchik does a great job as a commentator, much better than the rest, he is a veteran and has a very winning personality!
Stereotypes are sometimes there for a reason. Such a stereotype for two bros to completely make an event for women about themselves. Bravo!
Why can't we see more than one athlete? It's a 20-minute workout and we just saw Tia and Haley and no one else!
You all DISRESPECT THE ATHLETES by not doing a proper play-by-play, or calling out their names. I've never seen such disrespectful coverage of a sport. These are people who have put everything into their craft.

Listen carefully when the athletes come back inside Conway describes the action to a tee.
Lol I'm guessing this is a dummy account for the dummy commentator?
@@shawnfoster4506 not at all I just happened to watch the event live where we had nothing to see except the weightlifting square.
@jean-bernardtheard569 sorry, I've seen enough competitive Crossfit to know coverage is a joke. From commentating to covering more athletes than toomey and whoever happens to be next to her, it's pathetic

Toomey ripping through those last 10 touch and go????? She's an animal. This year is gonna be fiiiiiiire
Show the athletes weoking out instead of the two commentators.
I'm here for Tia🎉🎉🎉
Same for me. I don’t want to hear or see the commentators. Talk about the athletes. That’s the job
Brooke is a unit! 😮
Haley stayed on Tia's heels the entire time. Incredible!
What the hell is he talking about of course theu are capable THEY ARE THERE COMPETING OMG CAN SOME ONE TELL HIM TO SHUT UP
Was Tia's time a semi-final record for event 1?
Yes!!!!
Welcome back Amazing Haley
Welcome back Queen the GOAT
Please stop showing the commentators during the race
We here for the athletes not the commentators 🙈
It’s annoying that camera was even showing commentators I came for the athletes. In Brisbane we only saw commentators between the heats. I don’t care enough to see commentators
Wow the camera man run the entire way following Brooke. Nice cardio man well done. 👍🏼🙌🏼 sadly they don’t show athletes enough. We don’t want so see the commentators
These commentators sound more like they are doing pod cast rather than talking about the Athlete's. Rather watch it mute.
That’s literally what it was marketed as; apodcast for day 1
Brazilian commenters and transmission are SO MUCH BETTER!!!! Nobody cares who you competed against or what your Games were like in 2011 or 2012. Please SHOW THE ATHLETES!!!!!
Go Brooke 🎉❤😮 amazing work !
I love crossfit😍😍⚡⚡⚡⚡
Brooke Wells ❤😊
I recently started doing crossfit and I love it. i was tired of training like a bodybuilder. I am not sure if its possible to build a physique like these athletes naturally
It's not. But crossfit is still a lot of fun!
@@shawnfoster4506 Well, then I guess it would be better to continue with functional bodybuilding
@@YourDad-ho5ml guess so?
It absolutely is possible. Anybody who says it isn’t, just isn’t dedicated enough. But it does take extreme attention of detail to nutrition, training, and recovery. Favorable genetics are also helpful
@@jagaines3 lol ah yes, the battle cry of the geared up, "we just try harder" 🤣
Hope the commentators from the Oceania semis will do the games. They were excellent.
Thank you for your feedback!
Danielle Brando esta ahí en esta semifinal. Super evento. Son campeonas todas.
Well done Tia ❤❤❤❤
Queiro que regrese @Reebok, hacia mejores transmisionea de los eventos
Tia just smashed it!
Scott Panchik is a legend
Had to watch on mute 🤦🏾♀️
Strange side note, the amount of trees in this area was beautiful to see....so many urban areas cut down their trees!
Tia Claire Toomey is an inspiration 👏👏👏✊👊
These women have crazy cardio!
literally hundreds of comments asking to see the athletes and their names come up on screen and not the commentators - what on earth compelled you to change the format? CHANGE THIS ASAP
Great job ladies... WARRIORS
Adrian Conway is the bomb commentator! Please make sure he is on staff at the games!!!
I like the cam focus on Brooke wells ❤️ 😍 💖
Can we see Men's event 1??
the mario kart reference @ 12:54 was just off the charts 😆
I'd enjoy commentary on the different running shoes the athletes are wearing. We know a good bit about "crossfit shoes", but running shoes are a bit foreign. Would be cool to learn a bit more about them.

Awesome Haley ❤️
A great F U Sevan, Hiller & Co from Tia
What is this camera work? show us the competitors!
Why are you all continuing to show the commentators? We. Do. Not. Care.
Are there any videos of Michael Murphy himself doing this? Everyone states that it was his everyday routine.
as a side comment, I love the design of the walkway from/to the carpark over the walkway.
Haley & Tia were incredible and battling it out!! I'm glad I know how CrossFit works now and that's because Sean Woodland is so clear at explaining the course in the intro, breaking it down as it goes, giving a little backstory on the leading athletes and athletes who have been historically competitive.

Is this in Madison?
Brooke🤩
I can't see it, there is a black square, why they blocked
Great coverage
Too bad not live. 😢
Really disappointed that we are watching women compete but all we are hearing are these two men talk about themselves. Do better crossfit.
赏心悦目,阳光,健康,充满活力,为她们鼓掌
I feel like they’ve made it more like Hyrox anyone agree?
Wonderful Haley Adams, Focused on your training since you were 16, Bast the Haley Adams female.
Man it was really hard to watch this with the audio, I just put the volume all the way down
My Lord this was quite a workout with just 10 lbs. dumbbells 💪 quite a good pump 💪😎👍🏻☮️
