I am so missing Norman Chad announcing the WSOP on ESPN2. Antonio Esfandiari may be a world-class player but he is dull and BORING.

I just watched the latest WSOP main event with Hellmuth at the featured table. Norman Chad must have referred to that line that Hellmuth said 30 times. Constantly saying "idiot player from Northern Europe" or something close to that. Like how many times can you say that before it gets old. I guess the producers like poking fun at Hellmuth becuase it somewhat entertaining but god damn find something else to talk about. I wish I could mute just his voice and hear the rest.

Lol, I too wish Norman Chad would shut up at times. However, I think ESPN probably encourages him to act that way because most people don't find watching poker on television to be all that interesting. It can even be a little dull for me sometimes and I love poker.

I remember my Dad and brothers (and uncles, grandpa, neighbors, my neighbors' friends, their neighbors and friends, etc. - you get the picture) watching Monday Night Football all screaming "SHUT UP, HOWARD!" Now, everyone I know who watches the Worlds Series of Poker screams "SHUT UP, NORMAN!" So,I guess he's in good company - an annoying sportscaster every fan hates.

Norman Chad is an annoying flake. Alex is right. They do not do any of that live. Its all after the tape has been looked at. He contradicts himself many times and thinks he knows everything. I hope i never have to hear him speak again

I don't mind Norman Chad but I think many people don't realize that he is NOT broadcasting the event while it is happening. He shouldn't be given too much credit for quick wit and expert poker analysis. Lon and Norm do their commentary AFTER the video has been prepared. One reason that I know this is true is that I saw Norm in the crowd during an event while he was broadcasting it.

Norman chad is a phenomenal commentator/comedian. Not everything he says is funny. But not even a professional comedian is funny all the time. Not only that, his analysis is spot on. He reads the flop instantly, and I've never heard him make a mistake. He has a great sense of the game. And the chemistry with Lon is excellent. Frankly, either one of them outshines any other poker commentator.

Really? March 2, 2007
...Really? You actually like Norman Chad's comments? I suppose masochism does exist...and I personally couldn't come up with a better way of torture than strapping myself in a chair (eyes taped open)and watching norman chad either interview a poker player or give poker commentary. Norman Chad was probably chosen by ESPN for public service--ESPN rationalizes that they must counter balance the thrill of gambling with a negative reinforcer (and what better a negative reinforcer for gambling than a hideous and annoying commentator).

Hey..he makes poeple laugh. Some don't get the sense of humor, but its there for msot people. Yes, he's often silly..but at the same time, if you take offnse to him saying Farha would go in with a 4 and a crackerjack box...you're taking it all a bit too seriously. Plus..he's prolly right. And then josh Arieh would raise with just a crackerjack box and whine when Sammy took the pot. But that's beside the point.
Norm Chad is pretty funny, and tends to smooth over the duller moments of poker for the people who are forced to watch alongside the fanatics and players. The fact that he roll swith the psychology of the game, and the guys playing makes an interesting twist for thigns, and adds a new dimension make you udnerstand why certain people might do certain things.

For all of you who don't understand, Norm is the "color man" and Lon is the analyst. Both of them do excellent jobs of providing insight...Lon on how to play the game and Norm on the psychology of player behavior and poker humor. Norm seems to be able find some type of common ground to which the average tv fan can relate. So folks, lay off.
Norm and Lon, you ROCK!

Norman chad is a loser,definitely in love,3 divorces.He has the audacity to cut down the ex's,like they were the problem. Probably stems from his lack of stature and looks.I still can't believe they married the punk.His so-called "humor" is grating, and is insulting to any intelligence he may have. His tirade of trying to be a macho man is absurd. The worst thing of all, he actually believes he is a funny, well-liked commentator. I would love to see someone actually confront him. The players he verbally insults should step up and be able to get their licks in. Norman Chad = loser!

What on earth is with this uproar over Norman Chad? So not everyone likes his sense of humor -well thats life but look at the bright side people; he and his partner have great chemistry and rhythm and its great that someone is willing to stand up for decent behavior at the card table. So he makes snide comments about the players -so what, they usually deserve it. For crying out loud - somebody has to tell those monkeys to start dressing and acting like adults.

Norman Chand is the biggest Douche-bag i have ever seen in my entire life. Tries waaaaaaayyyyy too hard to be funny. Yeah i know what you are thinking..."you try and do it", well being an observer i have the right to critique. Does he make poker fun? Heck no, he makes it miserable and that's why i stopped watching it, plus the fact that it's the biggest fad since Pogs and the Yo-Yo rebirth. Get somebody else like a real comedian and somebody who can actually write a column, "Couch Slouch" is stupid...Pay the man Shirley??? huh?

Or how about when that guy started chuckling to himself last year WSOP in the middle of a hand "...I guess he just told himself a little joke." Bottom line, I look forward to Tuesday night 2005 WSOP for Norman Chad as much as the cards, and that's saying A LOT.

Read the title you know my feelings of this perennial loser. How can anyone like this guy??? He is NOT, funny in a way that makes Arli$$ hilarious. Jokes about playing Texas Hold'em should be done by a real comedian not this wanna-be funnyman. I'm sure Lon is tired of this guy, as are most people who watch Texas Hold'em. Bring in Joe Buck, hell bring in Chris Collinsworth, at least Collinsworth knows he's a doucebag and is willing to deal with it, Norman is out there trying to show you that he really isn't one when he himself knows it. He also once said that the Rocky movies were stupid...i'm not joking. How un-American is that. to conclude Norman is the KING OF DOUCHES PERIOD. Pay the man Shirley.

Norman Chad & Lon Mcheren are the BEST commentators on any media, of any subject. It's really a fantastic comedy team. They are the only reason to watch the WSOP series.

Unfortunately, poker commentators like Norman Chad are going to remain terrible color commentators. Afterall, if they gave you more complete insight into each hand of the game, they would end up losing more money on the poker tables. For instance, you will hardly ever hear these guys comment about poker tells. Here's an example that Mike Sexton and Vince Van Patten didn't say anything about. In one World Poker Tour event in San Jose, Phil Gordon was faced with a decision to call an amateur opponent with the short stack who went all-in on a hand. He stared at her through binoculars at the table and got a reaction from her. Now think about it. Why would someone bring binoculars to a poker table? To get a reaction from an amateur, thus getting a read from that person. Gordon got a reaction from the amateur, thus got a read from her that led Gordon to lay down his hand and save some money. But you'll never hear people like Sexton, Van Patten or Chad bring these things up, otherwise they would lose more money at the tables by giving away this information.

Norman seems to take puck shots at good looking young players. Norman, your "hunky" days are long gone (if there were any), let the young studs have their chance!!

I never thought I'd ever say this in my life, but there is a poker commentator who is worse than Vince Van Patten-Norman Chad.

Norman Chad is the MAN! He is the # 1 commentator in the history of sports, not only poker. His jokes are legendary and he reminds me of my late father, Glen Muller.
