Papa is just trying to have a call that he can call his own. It just sounds strange because all the other guys used 'touchdown 49ers'.

Papa is a bandwagon analyst with a fake over the top TD schtick. The best thing I like about it is that he's on KNBR and talks a s**t load of Niners talk.
Papa isn't doing color commentary when he sets the stage as they walk up to the LOS and he quickly informs the listener of, say, defensive alignment and then after the play knows what Ryan is saying and can discuss it or elicit more details from him if necessary.
But okay, you don't like him...simple fix is don't listen.
I won't.
Smart move, no reason to listen to someone you don't like. But it is kinda funny the criticism of a Bay Area broadcasting legend like Papa getting from someone who quite recently didn't even know the difference between PBP and color.
TV doesn't need color. If he's on the radio as well, then I get it.
But still, he needs to do away with taking a s**t while chanting the TD. And the arm pumping also. It is obvious dude is trying to eventually get his schtick on the national news.

Ted Robinson got criticized for being too bland and unemotional and now Papa is getting ripped for being too over the top. I watch on TV so I don't listen to these guys.

hes gonna yell it so much, he'll probably lose his voice and they'll have to get another guy anyway.

This is my favorite. Especially this year, I'm traumatized.
