Ray Warren gaffe

The complete arrogant moronic Ray Warren performed a shocker tonight. Trying to cover a mistake he made (as he's never wrong, just ask him), he said on live national television that Isaac Luke's son looks like a girl. Nice thing to publicly say about a 7 year old kid, and all because he hates admitting he's wrong

Take a breathe….

Unless you know him personally and have extra information over everyone else….take a breathe.

Yeah he makes gaffes, hes old and is the first to admit it. Its not like he is some egomaniac who believes he is immune from reality.

I disagree completely. An egomaniac is a good word to descirbe him
 
Thats the great thing about opinions, everyone is entitled to one of their own.

But somehow I doubt egomaniac is a great way to describe a person who shuns publicity and regularly admits to being fallible and wrong.

Warren's harshness on himself contrasts with the public's confidence in his commentary.

''I bash myself up more than most,'' he reveals. ''Those who know me would tell you I'm one of the great paranoids. I used to bash myself up just wondering what mistakes I'd made. I'd be convinced I'd embarrassed myself and my family. I still sometimes leave the ground upset about my call. But what I've learned is that, if you make a mistake, don't analyse it. That's really helped me.

''I strive for perfection, but it's a lot harder now for commentators. There's a lot more people playing, interchanges, new rules … For a while during the All Stars game, I didn't know if I was Arthur or Martha. There were 20 players on each bench, unlimited interchanges and some players I'd never seen.''

Lat its easy to say things like that in article. Listen to him year after year and his inability to ever admit he's wrong shows through time and time again
 
At what point would you like a play by play commentator to ignore his job in order to correct something like calling a players name incorrectly?

What a mountain out of a mole hill.

Who said anything about calling names wrong?????? That stuff is nothing. Listen to his conversations…listen to him on 2mmm. And lets just hope Isaacs son isnt teased at school on monday because Ray Warren decided to say he looks like a girl just because he was angry he stuffed up and tried to make out it was a fair mistake. Poor kid
 
You were the one who said he thinks hes never wrong. I agree he makes plenty of mistakes. I laugh all the time at them.

The disagreement comes when you assert that he believes he is infallible or above criticism, an egomaniac apparently. Which is untrue.
 
Talk about much ado about nothing! The kid did look like a girl, so what? He wouldn't be the first kid to have their gender mistaken and I'm sure he won't care about it as much as you obviously do - for whatever reason :unamused:
