What’s up with the announcers calling games these days? Either they are really bored or not paid enough (which cannot be true). The New York Jets–Houston Texans game was a bit boring in the first half so Al Michaels decided to spice it up a bit. Apparently, he’s not really fond of the New York Jets.

Aaron Rodgers is always a hot topic. But his “darkness” comment after the loss against the New England Patriots got the memers working overtime. Michaels also weighed in on the bandwagon and decided to take some shots at Aaron Rodgers on the Thursday Night Football game.

Right off the bat, Michaels brought up A-Rod’s ayahuasca escapades when he said, “Aaron thinking ‘I gotta get back to Peru or something.'” Does he not like Aaron Rodgers or something? It’s hard to tell at this point. But there’s more as Barstool Sports picked up some of Michael’s other shenanigans.

Michaels got too candid on prime-time television when he said, “And we’d just like to sincerely apologize to America for what we’re broadcasting to their TVs. This game is truly a crime against humanity. Makes me question why I’m even still doing this.”

Maybe the slow start bothered him and he decided to go a little off course with his commentary. His partner Kirk Herbstreit didn’t know how to respond to this and immediately tried to deflect the conversation saying, “Big 3rd down coming up here for Rodgers and the Jets.”

This chaotic back-and-forth between the two got the fans clowning the commentators. Seems like that’s the case every week.

Fans find Al Michaels hilarious

A fan pointed out straight up that the announcer doesn’t like the Jets when he wrote on X: “I’m beginning to think Al Michaels doesn’t fancy Aaron Rodgers & the Jets,” while another fan complimented the comment by saying, “Al Michaels is sick of the Jets.” Other people were quick to catch on to Michaels’ comments on Rodgers’ escapades in South America.

“’Aaron thinking ‘I gotta get back to Peru or something’ Al Michaels lmfao,” the fan wrote on X. Others echoed the same sentiments as one fan opined, “Al Michaels said Aaron Rodgers is missing Peru 😅😅.” Maybe this fan was right when they wrote, “Al Michaels just bored as hell.”

There was a moment in the game when they started playing snippets of Rodgers’ last presser after the loss against the Patriots. Michaels described Aaron Rodgers comments about him having been in “darkness” before and dubbed it a “Philosophy class.” Whatever Al Michaels’ consensus of the 4x MVP is, his words can be hilarious sometimes.

While the broadcaster made a highlight of himself in the game, there are others who are changing the football landscape. Check out our Think Tank to see how these women are making a huge impact in the football world.
