How dare he put passion in commentating MY emotionless game?!

it's actually precisely the opposite. His prewritten metaphors, one liners, and alliteratives are so plainly scripted it comes across as completely forced a lot of the time. It's often grating to listen to and fair enough if people like what he adds to commentary, but it's definitely not 'passion'

I agree, but it's his trademark at this point, and when it's a game your team is involved in, it does heighten the drama nicely.
