The DUMBEST ANNOUNCING MISTAKE in FOX NFL HISTORY | Panthers @ Vikings (1997)

- čas přidán 28. 09. 2023
- During a 1997 game between the Minnesota Vikings and the Carolina Panthers, Vikings kicker Eddie Murray set an NFL record. To congratulate him on the occasion, play-by-play man Paul Kennedy said something rather bizarre. However, as you're about to find out, there was just one small problem with what he said...

If only the turnover were the most awful thing Carruth ever did.
😅
Awkward
Killer post, dude
Ima be hiding in the trunk of my car if anyone needs me.
whats even crazier hes already out of prison
I hope we get a "Dumbest Sideline Reporter Mistake in NFL FOX history" about the time Danyelle Sargent asked Mike Singletary if Bill Walsh (who died the year before) called him after he got the 49ers coaching job
That was certainly dumb but it doesn't seem like there would be enough story.
and called walsh his mentor too
I gotta share this with Murray's son, he'll get a kick out of seeing his "grandfather" 😆
Boy the Vikings always seem to get these oddball announcers (See Mike Goldberg)
Who else was waiting for “I’m sorry…WHAT???” 🙋🏻♀️
Imagine if this mistake happened when social media was around. Oof the conspiracy theories would be endless. 😅
Vikings QB Brad Johnson had a touchdown reception on a deflected pass from Brad Johnson.
Brett Favre's first career completion was caught by Brett Favre.
@@robynmasters870C.J. Stroud’s first career completion was caught by C.J. Stroud
Don't forget Steve Young
The Hawks/Giants MN "massacre" featured receptions by Geno Smith and Ben Bredeson, a rare multiple non-QB catch game.
Nice job working in a Talking Heads reference. Kudos!
That was a Once in a Lifetime pull by JG!
JG9 has LONG since stopped making sense😏
@@Deltron3031taking us on A Road To Nowhere 😏
FOX also did this in 2009 when John Mayberry Jr hit a home run and they showed his father and former MLB player John Mayberry Sr in the crowd. The only problem is it wasn't him, it was just some random black guy
This was also the game Brad Johnson threw a touchdown pass to Brad Johnson
It could have been worse, JaguarGator9--Paul Kennedy could have said the Vikings kicker was Eddie Murphy...
Or said he hit a home run for the Orioles.
This is very similar to the mistake that Jack Edwards (of Boston Bruins fame) made in 2002 during the World Cup quarterfinal between South Korea & Spain. For some context at the time, ESPN/ABC in one of the dumbest broadcasting moves in the history of the network named Edwards their lead soccer commentator (ahead of people like Ian Darke & JP Dellacamera) & their primary commentator for the 2002 World Cup. This was a bad move because Edwards in addition to not knowing a single thing about the sport also brought the homerism that makes his calls for the Boston Bruins quite interesting especially for the USMNT matches. During this Spain-South Korea quarterfinal in which South Korea won in penalties & becoming the first Asian nation to make the World Cup semifinals, Edwards called South Korea "North Korea" multiple times on the air even though North Korea had not qualified for the World Cup. To make this even worse, Edwards then called South Korea's president who was in attendance to see this historic moment Kim Jong il as in the dictator who was in charge of North Korea at the time. ESPN drew immediate criticism from not only South Korea's ambassador to the US but also many Korean American groups for this mistake & had to apologize. Not only that but because he was absolutely awful as a soccer commentator, along with the mistake Jack Edwards was sent home from the World Cup immediately (and never called another soccer game again) & JP Dellacamera called the World Cup Final between Brazil & Germany.
To add to that, the match was IN South Korea, and in Gwangju, pretty much the hometown of the ROK's president, Kim Dae-jung.
I need a 30 for 30 on this
Before Jack Edwards became the most biased announcer in all of sports
Can't blame the guy. It's only soccer. 🤣🤣🤣
Looking back, if only the Vikings could've had him in 1998 instead of Gary Anderson then they might've have been a Super Bowl Champion. However, life doesn't work that way. 😞
The REAL reason the Vikings lost that game wasn’t because of Gary Anderson it was because Dennis Green coached scared
@@thatduderobo1974 agree, cause the vikings had the ball twice in overtime and failed to get in position for a chance to win it.
@@jimnfl7134
They were in overtime because Gary Anderson missed the field goal. It was a 39 yard field goal indoors. Can you name me one coach who told a kicker that he could miss a field goal because we have a defense?
@@giantsr1eva it was not just his fault. Robert Griffth dropped an INT just before the Falcons tied it and like i said the offense still had 2 possessions in OT with a chance. It's never that one thing.
So you're just gonna ignore the fact that the defense failed to contain the Falcons on the tying drive? OK then.
The only way this would’ve been better (worse) is if FOX had a graphic for his “Father and Wife” 😂
This the first NFL game I ever attended so I had high expectations for the video. You did not disappoint.
Damn, should have stayed home and watched it. You missed out lol
“He was not in the stadium that day because quite literally he was not alive.” 💀 im dead “Screw it, we’ll make up a new father!” lmfao bro is hilarious 😂
“…if you don’t know what an extra point is…”
With all due respect, I trust 100% of your viewers are familiar with extra points.
So far. A lot of my broadcasting vids though, for whatever reason, get picked up by the algorithm to a non football audience. The one on Mike Goldberg is getting a ton of steam right now
@@OfficialJaguarGator9 Part of the Blame should Also be on the Cameraperson.
Will Smith says, "keep my name outcha mouth!"
No no no, it's KEEP MY WIFE'S NAME OUT OF YOUR (expletive)ING MOUTH
As a Floridian, I know about Paul Kennedy mainly from his work with Florida State athletics, the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Orlando Magic for what are now Bally Sports Sun and Bally Sports Florida. I never knew him to be this sloppy.
Paul Kennedy called the week 1 game of the Falcons vs the 49ers to begin the 2001 season at Caadlestick Park.
*Candlestick
Part of the BLAME should be On The Cameraman!
More so on the producer and director. The cameraman was just doing his job. I don't think he knew any better.
All Chris Carter does is Catch Td's . He did more than that. He helped make this team relevant after 1990 until they became a force with Randy
I do appreciate the Talking Heads reference
Reggie Rucker inspired him
Watching this made me join Eddie Murray's father by dying of cringe.
Great job, as always, on the video.
Hard to hear the name "Rae Carruth" without shuddering....
You really got me with this one. Wasn’t expecting this to go so left, but seeing as it was Fox it all kinda makes more sense.
Not mentioned in this video was Bill Maas analyzing Brad Johnson's touchdown pass to....Brad Johnson. He first says "I thought that the pass was deflected (by Panther DL Greg Kragen), but I thought it was a pump fake." Then goes on to say he was looking downfield for a receiver before finishing the job himself. Kennedy goes on to say "When you have no receivers, you become your own receiver." What those 2 failed to realize is he became his own receiver BY DEFAULT BECAUSE YOU CAN'T THROW 2 FORWARD PASSES ON THE SAME PLAY! Actually, tbh, I thought that was what the video was gonna be about when I clicked on it. I was wrong.
OMG!! That's one of the worst gaffes I've ever heard & seen.😮
JG9 is the goat
JG9 is a Psycho Killer
Jack Black…? Interesting name choice for that comparison…
(BTW, very nice use of Talking Heads lyrics)
Really good video!
11:34 I have no clue how he got thru this without laughing
And you may tell yourself, "This is not my beautiful wife"...
I guess the player who scored the winning touchdown for the Vikings was the cure for their rushing problems.
If viewers take the secret Blaine Gabbert tier, JG9 gives you $2.
Looking back, had the Panthers started Beuerlein over Collins in 97 would they make the playoffs? They still have a solid but aging defense. Offense especially at QB was disappointing. I think Fred Lane Anthony Johnson and the oft injured but speedy Tim Biakabutka made up their rb room.
an announcer once said, "I was having lunch with coach Sam Wyche and he said........." Later Wyche said, "I didn't eat lunch with this guy".
That's pretty horrible!! Need to do video on when Mike Goldberg was announcer for a vikings game and fucked up nearly every single thing he said!!?? He was getting names and all kinds of shit wrong!!?? Absolute debacle!!??
Already got you covered there: czcams.com/video/iW2aj6EOC1g/video.htmlsi=q9mj3ny3L2mNG5Xs
I'm hoping they didn't call Eddie Murray the baseball player to apologize to the wrong Eddie Murray
Holy smokes!
This story is better...or worse...than any sitcom :)
Thanks for a fun video.
What a terrible mistake. Funny, Fox must of been embarrassed.
Great Talking Heads, Once in a Lifetime reference.
Jimmy Smith needs a tier
Yo that is unreal 😂😂 father dead for 20 years and Fox just finds a random guy in the crowd brutal
13:31- Same as it ever was…
Time isn't holding up, time isn't after us
I've watched a lot of your videos but have never commented before. I don't think I've ever laughed as hard at any of your videos as this one...what an epic screw-up by Fox!
I’ve been a Vikings fan all my life but have only be to a handful of games. This was one.
Nice Talking Heads reference 👍
Is it possible that you can make a video about the controversial suspension of MASN Broadcaster Kevin Brown that took place late July-early August on your JaguarGator7 channel?
absolutely wild to go in extra on Kennedy here
A similar thing happened a few years ago during the Super Bowl rams bengals. At the beginning of the game, while talking about Matt Stafford, the broadcast showed a woman in the seats with text saying it was his wife. And the announcers talked about his wife + family. A few minutes later they said there was a mistake, the woman shown before was not his wife. THIS IS his wife (they then showed the correct woman at the game) 😂😂💀
Eddie Murray's child that was at home with his wife is a cheerleader for the Lions. Her name is Nicole.
“At least she was alive tho” Flag On the play Unnecessary Roughness
I always wondered how the hell do those guys receive info like that and obviously how could they can't do something so simple as make a quick investigation to confirm it
I dont think all of the blame should go to Paul Kennedy. He was told by FOX about this and the production team should get a majority of the blame
Same as it ever was...
The Talking Heads reference was on point
This reminds me of my long ago DJ days when I worked with a fellow DJ who claimed on air that The Guess Who (Canadian band if I'm not mistaken) was early The Who (English band). Uh yeah right. :p
I do think you are a bit harsh on the play-by-play man. Like he made a mistake, and ultimately was the person who said the wrong statement, but this was a fail by multiple people - the producer, the camera crew, they all were involved in this incident. We don't know what was being said in the headset from the producer in the truck, and it's possible that Kennedy was observing the field opposed to looking at what was on the live monitor. On top of this, it's not like anyone else in the booth was refuting what he said live, like the analyst or the statisticians, or even the researchers among the game day crew. So the fault does fall on the entire FOX Television crew here.
Not saying Kennedy was in the right here, because someone like Murray should be well known in how much information is out there about him (and his family), but these play-by-play guys who bounce from team to team have to get used to like 15-20 or so teams during the course of a regular season, each with 51 person rosters. Granted there's a lot more about NFL guys via media kits provided by the team's head of media/public relations than there would be for collegiate or high school level athletes, but it's still a lot.
Nice Talking Heads Reference
It's not that serious. It's cool the announcer was able to come up with on the fly like that.
Never heard of Paul Kennedy. Must not have been an NFL announcer for long.
He looks like Bill Weber from the early 2000's NASCAR on NBC. Except the lying version.
Pregame Guy for the Magic and Lightning on Sunshine. Back then Fox used their RSN Guys a lot. Also, did the Sunshine Produced Replays and Pay-Per-View Games for the Florida State Seminoles.
13:24 underrated joke
If the crew in this hear is saying it is his dad and wife, no way especially back then would you think the your own fox crew you worked with would lie. It is amusing but you are being a little hard on him. Who in that split second would stop and think, i didn't verify this so i can't say what my producer is telling me?😂
His father was dead and his white wife was at home with their child... I forgive your nitpicking, sir.
Cool, but do you really think it needed 18 minutes to get it out? I think most people figured it out long before you got there.
So, is kicker Eddie Murray the greatest athlete named Eddie Murray?
Whatever happened to that Rae Carruth fella. I’m sure he went on to do wonderful things…
Tommy Davis the last straight on kicker to hold the consecutive XP record.
The announcer would have made a better job if he just spiked the ball every snap...
Is this Paul Kennedy who works for FOX with the Lightning?
It is
I would blame this on production and the research team. Hard to pin this on the caster alone.
If the NFL would come out with a NFL retro app where you can subscribe to watch old games and by season.... better than the current product
The gm Minnesota never saw. It was blacked out.
It was blacked out in the Twin Cities.
I thought Cody Parkey was vying for this kicking record.
OMG this had me falling off the couch
Ok this is funny 😂
Funny but it wasn't Kennedy's fault
As a Cowboys fan, I never had heard of him.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Is anyone signed up for the ‘Borselli Tier’?…if so, do u really call them up for 30 minutes every month?
Yep!
@@OfficialJaguarGator9 That’s awesome.
DUUUVAL!
Useless info on sports. I love it. :D
