GN Commentary: Olympic Fire - February 12, 2010

[PoetryMan11]

Memo to The Real Ranger Dave:

Prance schmantz! The speaker's manner was the antithesis of his chosen subject. As a result, it made his very carefully scripted (and otherwise meaningful) content absurd. While no talking head video can ever plumb the depths of any speaker's true inner conviction, it can and does does show either animation or boredom at what is being said. Aws they say inlaw, "Res ipsa loquitor" (the thing speaks for itself)

Memo to Clint:

A nice exercise in parallel metaphor--with all the i's nicely dotted and t's carefully crossed. However, the speaker has all the affect of a desiccated sponge. He seems rather bored about his neatly tied metaphorical bow

This recitation is reminiscent of the definition of a platypus as being "an animal designed by committee".

He should either be reading his own words or only allowed to write and speak those things about which he has strong and discernable conviction.

PoetryMan11 I completely disagree with your eloquent statement, rarely taking into consideration one who attacks persons without the word "constructive" in front of their criticism

I thought this was very well scripted and thou the presenter could have pranced around a bit more - I consider his tone to provide more weight to what he is saying!

Roland,

Was there anything specific you didn't like about it?

I have watch almost every GN commentary. This one is the worst I have seen. Very disappointed!
