Norman Chad: Why? - Page 3 - Poker Card Room - Casino Live Poker Rooms Forum

[QUOTE=crystalallen;13481975

But the bit on What would you give up for a bracelet was good.
I liked the people saying they'd give up the cash just for the bracelet and their place in history. And then Doyle says he's a poker purist, he'll take the cash and give up the bracelet.[/QUOTE]

But they didn't ask anyone who would give the only honest (and obvious) answer. I'd give up my JOB!!!!!

The Norm haters are probably boring people to hang out with and take themselves too seriously.

Norman Chad is very good if you take him for what he is.

The problem with Norman is not what he says, it's how often he says it.

The Norm lovers are probably just as annoying as he is and have a horrible sense of humor.

Generalities are fun.

Norman cracks me up everytime. How can you not like him, jeez, why so serious ?

We need a Chad/Kaplan show ASAP.

Ali Nejad is plain brutal. He's so un-funny and his weird nasal voice annoys me. Maybe its because he doesnt have a commentating partner that he's so boring =/

Does NC have a blog or web site? We should send him a link to this thread to make his day.

it wouldn't work to have too funny guys together, you need a straight guy to go with it..

AJ benza? is kaplan's straight guy. aandd the other wsop commentator is Chad's straight guy, i think Chad is fine as commentator.

At the start of this wsop season I didn't really like his commentary (the russian communist stuff b/c of Lunkin wasn't really funny), But he starts cracking me up every episode now ;D.

It annoys me when he does the ex-wife/people's shirt bits, but he's generally entertaining otherwise. What would be the ultimate is having John Madden state the obvious... or even better having Frank Caliendo do John Madden calling the action. That would be great. (but only for like an hour, ldo)

It'd be far more interesting and the only people who wouldn't like it are the same who don't like Norman Chad's sense of humor and they're a lost cause. TBH Heck if these two were commentating a football game or a boxing match I'm sure that'd be interesting to me too.

Oh btw Norman Chad>Gabe Kaplan>>>Mike Sexton>>>>>AJ Benza>>>Ali Nejad>>>>VVP>>>>>Lon McHaren
