POKER INFO - PROILE - Norman Chad

needs to stop making jokes about things that arent funny but hey at least he tries

I'm puttinh a hit on this man if he makes one more reference to the Ace of spades!!!

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.

hes the man, well behind phil hellmuth

needs to get over his divorce

I love my brother Nolan so much, but I really love you Norman Chad I always have wet dreams of me and my brother together, but Norman I love your sense of humor it turns me on, oh yeah so does my brother

[kysp]

sheesh...does this guy know anything other than cuts and zings? I swear if I didn't know better, I'd think, from listening to him, that I was back in the 7thy grade listening to the class bully. He makes fun of people's names, their clothing, their comments (or lack thereof), etc. Get him off the show...the viewing would be that much more enjoyable with ANYBODY but him.

[?????]

1/2 of the most stupid broadcast team ever!
They miss calls on every broadcast (miss straight/flush outs)
Who did they b**w to get this job?

[HPG ADMIN]

sometimes he is funny in a pathetic kind of way

LET ME TELL ANYONE HERE, if you DONT THINK NORMAN CHAD IS THE MAN, then you are a serious deranged lunatic.

[Bender]

I really want beat him to the ground. Just look at his stupid ass. I'll admit he is funny every now and then but still, he's a pathetic loser, just look at him.

[Jean Curtis]

Many people don't care for Helmuth & Matisow(I personally love them).. After seeing the smug, pompous Mr. Gold, these folks will no doubt have a change of heart. My husband did.

Also, I LOVE Norman Chad.

[?????]

Sounds like you love everyman, every pair of pants, every pair
of b****

[AdamWolf]

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.

His family must have some type of "pull" with the network, or
there's no way this idiot could win the job!

I Don't Want To Hear His Sick Gay Fantasy Of Meeting Young Men.

Fire Him!!!

[DonkeySlayer]

this guy must be jewish, thats how he gets the job

He's not that bad. Hey he got a compliment from Mike Sexton. I will admit it took awhile but the guy grows on you. He keeps coming back so that should at least tell you something.

[?????]

It tells me your sick!

[KO!!!]

I didn't like him at first but he's funny now. He makes it more interesting to watch.

[cdizzle]

...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).

[go_cat]

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.

[alexlifeson]

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 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.

[NevillesHaze]

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

[tolepaintingmom]

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.

[VA Poker]

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.

[jacktors]

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.

[blue_moon916]

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Norman Chad! He makes me laugh like crazy...Norman is EXACTLY the kind of man I would love to marry...someone who can find a bit of humor in any and everything. Thanks Norman!

[?????]

blue_moon916 must be a fag!
