A disgrace to football punditry

I have long been seeing videos from RTE football coverage on Youtube, and their coverage is seen as refreshing, saying things other pundits wouldn't, etc.. Now they seem to have become some sort of ridiculous stereotype. I'm not even going to link to the video from last night of them calling Ronaldo a disgrace- for reasons I'm still not sure about to be honest (and i'm also wondering how many times they've got really emotional about Stevie G and Torres diving)- because it is absolutely stupid. The suspicion is that they know they have some sort of Youtube following and are attempting to top themselves (if only they were really trying to top themselves...) week upon week, by saying more and more outrageous things, and finally they have ended up in some sad and bitter parody of themselves.
