No kidding . I love when people start throwing names around , get this guy , get that guy when they may not even be interested in doing it full time .  Glover in particular has had a pretty good gig with Dunlop for many years now .  Why would he want to give that up for the thankless job of color commentating and the inane criticism from the peanut gallery that goes with it . 

However there's surely several former moto industry guys who would love to do it but RC is embedded with Monster and thus Feld who writes the checks

...and therefore he can't pronounce short words but need to prolong/extend every short phrase with 'monster energy'. ...when 'normal' people quickly say, 'supercross is a cool sport' RC cannot say it as quickly since he needs to add 'Monster Energy Supercross...' 

Not that it matters, but when every sentence includes promoting the brand it gets a bit silly. It sounds even un-intelligent, like a small kid who was told to do a certain thing in a certain way.

Doesn't make the broadcast any worse, I love it... but if RC could be exchanged for someone else it would be even better.

"Brought to you by Carl's Jr."

And I love he'll forget sometimes and so he'll back up and start over.

When he talked about tomacs move from [monster] Kawasaki to monster energy Yamaha I know he got some major cognitive dissonance for forgetting the first one. "Do I start over so I don't get.yelled at by the producer or do I speak like a normal person?"

 

Also to someone's point above, weigandt being a closet intelligentsia doesn't get enough heat. He spends alot of time shitting on the masses and it's cringe.

I’ll say it. RC on his worst night is still easier to listen to than James’ mastication of the English language. My father was an English teacher and would gladly correct my grammar if I mis spoke. I think we should also hold others, including RC, to an acceptable level of professionalism, lest we continue to devolve into communication based on grunts and clicks. 
 

Defense of James’ sprinkling unidentifiable words and phrases as a highly compensated announcer on a national broadcast is yet another example of our society lowering its acceptable standards. I realize that statement will trigger most here that will be quick to defend James by yelling racism, so be it. I know that isn’t the case, and more it’s just an easy go to talking point for those who cannot intelligently debate their position. 

Wait, you think Stewart butchers English more than Carmichael? They may as well be 2 sides of th same coin in that sense, but at least Stewart doesn't get in his own head and fumble around all night. He also provides actual insight.

Too scared to type the person's name?

Absolutely not, but I'd rather sit back and read the comments of so-called online SJW sleuths screaming rascism as if they've cracked the case. It's quite humorous to read the Hypocrisy on Forums where some people think it's ok to chastise and insult a broadcaster who's trying to do a good job and has a lot of experience in the sport, because he comes off as a white country farm boy.  If people are going to bitch about Ricky, then they better realize that Gender and Race is not a force field against negative comments towards other people either.   Just hoping to see more consistency in the world.

It’s almost as if someone would tell the producer to shut the fuck up the whole show would instantly be better.

Laughing Yeah! I'm trembling.  Let's just say if people are going to be critical of Ricky Carmichaels style of broadcasting, then they also better be critical of broadcasters that arn't very articulate, butcher the english language and use phrases I don't find appealing when broadcasting sports, in essence using Ghetto talk.   Like the stuff in this video, I don't want any type of this speak in Sports, only good english.

Who was complaining about RCs commentary because he’s a “white country farm boy”? 😂  you brought RCs race into it and Bubbas by saying “ghetto”. Nobody was talking about race till your ass rolled in 😂

My! arn't we the sensitive one, people on here talk all kinds of negative crap about RC and you're as quiet as a church mouse, but as soon as I make any kind of negative comment about another announcer, you immediately make an assumption that it's directed at someone you think I'm making reference to and start screaming Racism.  People like you are the pathetic losers who's can't handle criticism of someone you admire.  I admire RC on the track and in the booth and I can just as easily read the awful negative comments made by many on here and say they hate him, because of who he is.   You're what's wrong in the world. 

 

So what announcer are you talking about?

This. Ricky stumbles when sticking to the script.  His off-the-cuff commentary flows more easily and is vastly more entertaining. I understand the need for corporate adherence, but that technique hasn’t worked for over a decade. Either allow Ricky to be Ricky, or move on…

People in the Ghetto have horrible english speaking habits and are uneducated.  The way people criticize Ricky Carmichael, he could easily be described as Ghettoing up the broadcast, but immediately those sensitive types that see racism EVERYWHERE just assume I must be racist for merely mentioning the word Ghetto.  Maybe making the assumption that saying Ghetto means he must be speaking about James Stewart makes YOU! the real racist.

I think Ricky would excel at moving to the lead analyst position for the in-between desk they tried with Weege and the other woman at A1. I consider him like Shaq for basketball on TNT because I’d hate to have Shaq calling the live action of a game, but he does offer insightful things when it’s a bit more planned out. 
 

I like RC, but he really struggles with live action calling. Bring in Brayton for the role, or AC if he decides to hang up his boots soon.
