So you think you know a thing or two about sports, huh? Feel like you could do better than most of the people on TV (in Australia, this is probably true). Fancy yourself a bit of a chance to pull an epic mid-career shift and score yourself a plum job as an analyst for ESPN?
This is your benchmark.
If you’ve ever seen any of ESPN’s NFL coverage (which you’ll be seeing a lot more of now that THE GODDAMNED SEASON IS BACK AWW SHIT YEAH) you’ve probably seen the face and voice of Trey Wingo, who does a lot of NFL-related work for the network; namely, hosting the post-Monday Night Football wrap-up show, NFL Primetime.
Wingo is a massive fan of the American game.
Seriously. A HUGE fan.
To the point where he can rattle off not just the score of every Super Bowl ever, but the MVP, and in most cases even the STADIUM the game was held in.
And he can do that in around 6 minutes – including time for little asides to heap in some cool game or season related trivia.
That’s some straight-up Rain Man type shit, right there. Holy CRAP.
