Is Goldberg fired?

[Inigo Montoya]

I have a feeling that he took time off to take care of a drinking problem (Not joking).

 

[Francis Rossi]

Yeah but he's been doing that shizz for 17 years and screws up on a pretty constant basis and still has no idea what he's watching. It's not like he started off crap and has greatly improved with a few errors here and there. The only commentator that has annoyed me more than goldberg was Damon Perry and he was just in Pride for 2 shows

You seriously think he doesn't know what he's watching? Rogan is there for the technical aspects, Goldberg's there to feed him lines and shill for the sponsors. Rogan himself has said Goldberg knows more than enough about MMA. He even dabbles in muay thai training.

I love me some Goldie, but I'm looking forward to Anik and Rogan in the booth. I hope Rogan gives Anik the business just like he does Goldie.

 

[Tooth and Nail]

I'm worried he's quite ill.

He has been looking very thin and has seemed off lately.

Someone asked Front Row Brian about this, and this is what he said:-

It's not to take a break. Sensitive issue.

 

[GrindingANARCHY]

Who is filling in for Goldie?

 

[Spycho]

I never understood all the Goldie hate. He's the best play by play commentator in MMA even with his mistakes and quirky comments. Jon Anik and Kenny Florian put me to sleep when they are commentating.

I totally agree with you on this one dude. Those two should cover figure skating or curling IMHO.

Who is filling in for Goldie?

Anik.

 

[fitedoc]

My professional opinion is he has a coke....i mean coca cola habit

Damn, I hope this is not true.

What happened to Bas doing it with Rogan??

screw frontrowbrian. i'm waiting to hear what outsidehammer has to say

Damn, I hope this is not true.

you would prefer if he ignored his alcohol issues?

 

[Inigo Montoya]

Damn, I hope this is not true.

Me too.

I just want to clear that this is just a gut feeling that i'm having, not a rumor that i'm trying to spread.

Part of Goldberg's job is to ask the stupid questions that a Layman would ask, so that Joe can educate casual fans by answering such questions. Anyone who thinks that Goldberg is just asking those types of questions because he is that stupid, is every bit as dumb as they accuse Goldberg of being.

 

[Jack Reacheround]

you would prefer if he ignored his alcohol issues?

Yes. "He's a lot more fun when he's sober," said nobody ever.

 

[Fists of Fire]

I wonder if this is related to that time he was running around backstage without his shirt off* in front of Dana during an interview.

Edit: Haha. Should read: without his shirt on.

Did they ever say what that was about?

Wait, the guy who always says what is on his mind, wrong or right, doesn't want to talk about it now?

 

[johnsq316]

Based on this development, I fully expect Mike to check into a "hospital" for "exhaustion" for about 30 days sometime in the next week.

 

[MGLucas]

Goldberg makes me ill. I'd buy every ppv from now on if they canned that loathsome prick.

screw frontrowbrian. i'm waiting to hear what outsidehammer has to say



you would prefer if he ignored his alcohol issues?

No, never said that. I just hope he is not going through any serious issues.
