Matt.......Millen.......Mute
It works - and its alliterative!!!!
That's a win for Sa-Sa. That's on him. He needs to run with his feet.
The older fellows on this board remember Millen & Clark. Matt was the crazy of the two. Both were great, I believe they were coined "book ends". Millen was often in Joe's dog house, but Joe loved him, probably because Matt wasn't the brightest, but one of the best Joe encountered over the years. Matt was always a loose cannon.
He's family, how many family members do you have that are somewhat abstract but you still feel deserves explanation?
Matt Millen was an awesome student athlete in his day at Penn State. He would sit and eat with anyone in West Halls. Talked to anyone interested in talking to him. He was more interested in regular students than any athlete I met in the late 70s. I am so tired of reading your stupid comments about his announcing.
Thanks, you took the words from my mouth...Matt is a "blue coller" not a CEO.
Well, he is awful. May be the nicest guy in the world, available to anyone, but he's sucks at football analysis. Sorry.
Not rejecting your post my sweetheart, yes you're right my good friend LOL. Millen is like a bull in a China shop. Forget about civility.
This is true. Guy was a slob though. He deserved the nickname Pig Pen as he was frequently referred to. Biggest tool bar none, Scott Fitzkee. But he had a good looking girlfriend back in the day.

I don't receive the BIG10 station, never heard him call a game, but I'll açcept yours and others about his play by play based on your and others interpretation.
Matt dated a very cute, blonde gymnast. She was a fraction of his size. She's what is known as a spinner. Always made me laugh thinking about them together
I'm tired of this board bashing Millen , it's getting real fvcking old , you want Griese,Flutie, c'mon. WTF
We have some very petty children among us. Matt Millen epitimizes blue collar, Hall of Fame football talent. Honestly, it seems amusing to read vitriol about one of Penn State's finest alumnae. In my business career, I seldom encountered successful people who found it easy to fault others. These type of oeople never rose to senior management level in the teams that I led. I enjoy Matt but I listened to the Penn State radio crew. The children may not know, but Jack is both a college and NFL Hall of Fame member like Matt.
I enjoy his color comments. He has never done play by play. He has unlimited football knowledge. Maybe if he earned another dozen super bowl rings, he would know as much as the experts on this board cio..
Well, I made my assessment of MSU very clear last week and they appear to have upheld their end of the bargain... we did our best to keep up our end. Neither team had easy weather to deal with, so that's a push.
Millen was, imo, 100% correct. We will be playing a MSU team that is playing hard and has all the talent needed to squirrel our season. It is THEIR senior day (their record is no longer an issue.. they will show up and they will show up with bad intentions) as much as ours and they know that a win could destroy much of what we've built. I found myself thinking that if i'm D'antonio I'm not telling the team it's going to be a dogfight.. i'm telling that team they are 2 TD's better and let's go kick their asses... show them zero respect.
Frankly, they have all the tools. So this PSU team needs to bring their A game and strap on their big boy pants or we are looking at 1999 all over the F again. Anyone thinking we swamp these guys (frankly, I hope you are much smarter than I am) needs -- imo -- a mental adjustment.
All goes well, we win 34-24. if not, it's 34-31 and last man standing wins it...

I would think it is not easy to come across as not bias for MM during a game. He tries to be impartial and always makes it a point to make positive observations about the other team
I think he does a serviceable job. He may not be the most eloquent but who amongst us would be if we were on the broadcast team of a PSU game.

I saw Matt in East Halls looking for some guy from our dorm floor sending flowers to his girlfriend. He was huge and very unhappy and asked me where this guy was. Luckily, that guy was gone that day and I got truthfully say I didn't know. Very large and very angry.
