@dougstafford @AtlantaFalcons @nyjets @awfulannouncing I never said anything about penalties :/ re-read the post.

[Brian Bates @BrianElevates]

It's really hard listening to Jonathan Vilma call the @AtlantaFalcons vs. @nyjets game. You have an announcer that was selected first by the Jets and played for the New Orleans Saints, the chief rival for the Falcons. He isn't even close to being unbiased. #fail @awfulannouncing

@RealMattlanta It's absolutely terrible. Even worse than Cris Collinsworth 🤮

@TBM929 I get that offense needs to score TDs on short fields, But you’re talking about 2 weeks in a row where a rookie or unknown quarterback has put up big numbers and late game drives. That is NOT on the offense. That’s 100% on defense.

[Brian Bates @BrianElevates]

@TBM929 curious as to why the focus is on @AtlantaFalcons offense and QB when the defense is clearly the issue? AVG points scored in NFL this weekend: 26. AVG points allowed: 16

Couldn't have said it better @Delta

So sad that loyalty is a one-way street with my favorite airline. Perhaps my now former favorite airline.

@TaylorTwellman can someone explain, in layman terms, how Inter Miami can afford financially, and within the rules of DP’s, all of these elite players.

That was pretty pathetic @ATLUTD Our usher Theresa could have taken a better #penaltykick than #Moreno and then he got rewarded for that by staying on the pitch. @DEalesATLUTD @GonzoPineda8 #DoBetter

As you prepare to move into 2022 & you can only listen to 1 podcast, it has to be @jayshetty & his interview with @ScottONeil It is 1 hour and 20 minutes of absolute gold. Saved to listen to again & again. Can only imagine the energy in that room. Wow! https://t.co/RU7ICipGcC

Players are spilling the ☕️ on clubs and stadiums.

When it comes to environment, #ATLUTD earns top honors. 🏟

@TeaRoomBetty still looking for Brian’s? Your tweets are awesome!

[Brian Bates @BrianElevates]

Dear @espn - @AleMorenoESPN is probably one of the worst announcers ever. Can we please have @TaylorTwellman call all the matches?

[Brian Bates @BrianElevates]

Sorry @BocaBoca3 but Moreno doesn’t deserve a start or to play the full 90. No effort. Lazy. Bad decisions. Only right footed. We have better options.

[Brian Bates @BrianElevates]

@AleMorenoESPN we get it. You think it was a handball. Time to move on and let it go.

[Brian Bates @BrianElevates]

I wish commentators be required to officiate a football game before they comment/criticize the officials. There are 22 elite athletes on the field & 7 refs. @tonyromo @CBSSports @7BOOMERESIASON @nateburleson @PhilSimmsQB Only @GeneSteratore has room to comment w/ authority.

[Brian Bates @BrianElevates]

Hey @BigLots Chamblee Tucker and @CocaCola first time in well, forever, #cokezero smells terrible. Tastes ok but has terrible odor. Smells like mildew or ammonia. Check your lot numbers. Thnx.

[Brian Bates @BrianElevates]

Congrats @WellsFargo you’re now almost as bad as @BankofAmerica Closed branches & limited staff at those that are open creating long wait times. 5 stations & 1 teller & tellers who want to have long conversations about Christmas gifts when there are people waiting. #fail
