Eric Davis is new 49er color analyst, Plummer apparently out | Page 3

NoOffseason · 2011-04-04T12:34:47-07:00

Just saw this article posted on the Niners official homepage: Davis Joins U.S. Bank 49ers Radio Team So, we will have a new color analyst teaming up with Ted Robinson beginning next season (if we have a season ). What do you guys think? I actually liked Gary Plummer and am surprised by this.

I cant stand Eric Davis and Plummer made me like listening to the radio on days when i had to work and couldn't watch the games. Very bad move in my opinion.

I didn't think Plummer was bad enough to be replaced.

Bottom Line...Gary Plummer told it like it is, Eric Davis Will Not Tell It Like It Is...Plain & Simple.

"I said flat out, if I say something negative, will I go to the principal's office," Davis said by phone Monday afternoon. "They said we want you to say what you want."

So no I don't think so, which begs the question why no more Plummer? He might have gotten another job maybe. I thought he was a pretty good.

I bet he signs a contract with the charges!

Ted Robinson was awful enough by himself. He doesn't need any help making the listening experience suck even more.

49ers commentators have sucked for a while now...! The complete opposite of SF Giants commentators.

I'm not a fan of this move. Gary got pretty damn good at the color spot. Eric is kinda boring. With the mild mannered Ted at the play by play, I'm wondering where the excitement will come from.

I really liked Plummer... not being in the TV market.... I always listen to the radio broadcasts...I can only hope Davis can at lest do a decent job.
