Social media calling out Gary Danielson for CBS broadcast of Georgia at Alabama
It started early, thanks to a play that went to an official review by the referee, and continued through the first half.
Fans of both Alabama and Georgia went after Gary Danielson’s analysis of the primetime showdown between the top 3 teams. The only debate was which fan base figured Danielson was more biased against their team.
When there were just about back-to-back turnovers to start, and a touchdown early on, there was plenty of draw fans’ ire about Danielson’s opinions.
Here’s a sampling of the criticism:
Gary Danielson is in a relationship with the entire Georgia football program.

the only thing worse than watching a walk on qb shred our defense is having gary danielson call a walk on qb shredding our defense 😑

I share the same opinion of Guarantano as I do on Trump/Biden and on Gary Danielson. Surely these can’t be our best options.

I cannot smell or taste and Gary Danielson makes me wish I couldnt hear

I hope George Pickens comes across Gary Danielson one day and just sprays water all on him. #UGA

Many fans complain about announcers. I am not a fan of either of these teams, but look; ladies get you a man who loves you like Gary Danielson loves Bama…#BAMAvsUGA

Can someone put duct tape over Gary Danielson’s mouth when he is unfortunately assigned a UGA game?? #UGAvsBama #godawgs #SEC #godawgs

Here we go, it’s Gary Danielson seeing how many times he can say “that Alabama defense” season.

Does Anyone Else Hear how BIASED #GaryDanielson is when calling Bama Games?
— Keith Wright (@keithallen6231) October 18, 2020
Gary Danielson “yes!” After the Bama INT… do I have to put up with this Anti Georgia kook all night?
— phil jones (@philjonesradio) October 18, 2020
Did Gary Danielson just say, “Every time “we” get the ball”…he has to be the worst in the booth @CBSSports

Did Gary Danielson just say “yes!” on the Georgia pick? Homer.
— Mark Stringer (@Bogey142) October 18, 2020
I just don’t like listening to Gary Danielson. I associate him with Alabama (probably because he loves the Tide) and can’t listen to him for long. *mute*

Find you someone who will fight for you the way Gary Danielson will fight to overturn a bad play for Alabama.
— Dawg Sports (@dawgsports) October 18, 2020
The worst part of this game being on CBS is all of the inevitable bitching about Gary Danielson.
— Wiffle Ball Helmet (@wffleballhelmet) October 18, 2020
Will it take Gary Danielson one play or two to start openly rooting for Bama?
— Coach Letterman (@3YearLetterman) October 18, 2020
Thank the lord the SEC contract with CBS is almost over. I can’t wait to never hear Gary Danielson ever again.
It’ll be so nice to watch a game without 8 commercials per drive.

I bet Gary Danielson pleasures himself to Georgia Bulldogs highlights

Geez SDS every week you post an article about Gary, get over your man crush and give it a rest. Who cares.
This is a comment I can agree with. Came here to say the same thing. The constant Danielson articles are both weird and dumb.
More click-bait.
SDS and these crybaby fans need to give it a rest. I thought the announcing was no better or worse than any other game.
I’m not a Danielson fan at all but all these crybabies need to STFU..
One thing every teams fan base agrees on. Wait till next week especially if bama wins.
As someone whose team’s games are never called by Danielson, I just don’t think he’s that bad. He’s not Romo or Herbie, but he’s not bad (and like almost all announcers, he’s not biased because he said one bad thing about your team).
I have always enjoyed listening to Gary. He is very knowledgeable and prepared. I will keep Herbie but you can have Romo.
Why does this NOT surprise me one bit… he and ole Verne have ALWAYS been the #1 Bama fans over the last decade or two..
It’s funny because from what I’ve seen most Bama fans hate them just as much as the rest of us
Romo is a great commentator probably the NFL’s best
Uncle Vern was not the problem it was Gary. I’m much rather shoot a ma deuce with no ear protection then listen to Gary
This is what I’ve noticed. The team that is playing best is who he touts. He was all about Georgia in the 1st half and Bama in the second.
Very true.
I was watching a game on Saturday and the announcer said about one oline player, “He’s been playing at a high level.” Just then he missed a block and the qb was sacked and the same announcer said something like, “He needs to improve if he plans to continue starting.” Whaaaattt?
I wonder how many Bulldog fans would be complaining had they won this game. I watched the game, enjoyed Gary’s insightful commentary-love him or hate him, he knows the game of football.
At least he doesn’t cry on national TV. Nothing like shedding tears for the wealthy, spoiled… errr I mean oppressed.
mikebbd…Totally Agreed +1
lmao that was gold
Very nice…haha
I guess this will be a WEEKLY feature! In a world where it’s difficult to get many people to agree on anything, it’s nearly UNIVERSAL – EVERYONE HATES GARY DANIELSON!
Not true at all.
Be a leader, not a follower.smh
These articles are stupid. Gary always gets amped for whoever is playing the best and executing…. Don’t believe that watch him call Auburn, Tennessee, or even fking Vanderbilt and you’ll see
Maybe it’s time for social media to start calling for your job Keith, seeing as you can’t put anything descent out there
Right on! haha
The only thing worse than Danielson is having to listen and look at that squeaky-voiced cheater Alex Rodriguez during the MLB playoffs.
This is getting pretty old and tired.
The play-by-play and color analysis for the Alabama-Georgia game were the best in the business. Of course, I had the game muted and provided the PBP and Color for myself. These jobs are about as worthless as the greeters at Wal Mart. If somebody entering the store doesn’t know they are entering Wal Mart, then they probably cannot figure out how to buy something.
Maybe it’s a generational thing, but I just don’t let a color commentator ruin my day.
Brad Nessler is a great commentator imo
Oh look! Another week, another “Social media calling out Gary Danielson for CBS broadcast of sportsball team 1 at sportsball team 2” article.
Gary is just simply annoying. He is biased to the team that is winning; whether it is Auburn, Alabama, Georgia, etc. Just have him call Kentucky and Vandy games and listen to him get confused on who is the better team. lol Roll Tide!
UK is kinda dangerous this year. Not going to the playoffs or nothing obviously, but will beat a good team that strolls in thinking they are just gonna show up and get an easy win.
I think it’s the opening SEC on CBS theme song that gets him going. I miss Verne though (sighs)
If Brad Nessler and Verne Lundquist commentated games I’d be very happy
Don Criqui was better than them all.
Stupid article. Not Gary’s fault we stunk up the joint. I had it muted and still was painful.
Well dang Gary and Verne were my favorites .. I like gary
I wish I had a job where I could copy, paste, and publish the same article every week
You call this an article? It’s 4 sentences and a bunch of other people’s tweets!
I dont particularly care for him. But, he goes with the flow of the game and seems to try to be unbiased and tout the team that has the momentum etc. I get frustrated when he doesn’t seem to know what is actually happening on the field.
I looked at the number of reads this article has…over 441,000 ? I have not ever seen any article receive that many reads posted…gotta feel that SDS has a bone to pick with Gary…and posts those numbers to get the clicks.
Nah bro Gary is biased against any team that plays Bama! You don’t get it cuz your a Bama fan. I’m 38 years old and have hated his commentating since I can remember! Nothing personal but I honestly can’t stand him. I believe the number of views show the exact same feelings I have.. It’s not sds.. if you were a fan of any other team in the SEC you would feel the same way.
Gary Danielson is more biased doing the play by play on a Bama game than MSNBC covering a Trump rally! Sad thing is it has been going on for decades!
His birth name is Gary “I Hate Steve Spurrier and the Gators” Danielson.
I truly don’t understand the hatred for Gary Danielson. I’ve never had an issue with him calling games. I think he’s a great commentator, and he provides something different from the typical, vanilla commentators ESPN usually has. He’s knowledgeable and typically can diagnose game-plans early on. Haters will do what they do I suppose.
You don’t understand the hatred cuz he’s on your side.
