This is why I watch football with music on…
…and the broadcast team off. The hype is unhinged now:

Wow, that's nuts. It made me look up how many concussions Aikman had. 10 documented.

Its a narrative the broadcast partners push hard: hype....every ex-announcer says the same thing. Fans like hearing good things about their favorite team's players, especially the casuals. Aikman goes off the deep end here but most are not that far behind. Its worse than its ever been because of social media. Its certainly normal for a team like the Chiefs and Mahomes, beyond nauseating.
