    Default Under rated and Under appreciated

    In comedy, We always hear the big names like Lewis Black or Chris Rock, but I think Frank Caliendo is friggin funny & talented.

    Under rated and under appreciated. How many comedians can do impressions?

    Women comedians for the most part are over rated. Tina Fey? she's humorous, but would I buy a ticket to watch her do standup? Nope. If Ellen Degeneris to Roseane Barr had to get discovered at the African-American showtime at the Apollo, they would've been booed off vociferously.

    with that said, these wanna-be-women comedians make it difficult to appreciate comedy from anyone outside of Lucille Balle the GOAT woman comedian. Hard act to follow.
    Her era made one woman IMO under rated and under appreciated: Gilda Radner.

    Rumor had it that week in week out John Belushi and Dan Akyroid tried to get the women fired for not being funny with one caveat- keep that Gilda chick, now she's funny.

    I bet today's generation has no clue how funny Gilda Radner was: underrated and under appreciated.

    Today, in football it seams automatic about QB's being [flushed] out the pocket. But I think it started by a man few really know- Because he never won a SB, his name isn't mentioned with the great Johnny Unitas, Joe Namath, Bart Starr, Roger Staubach to Terry Bradshaw.

    Fran Tarkenton of the Minnesota Vikings, too short to see over his offensive line he had to move, but it wasn't called being flushed out the pocket. They said he had to scramble LOL!

    Francis the 'scrambler" Tarkenton. That little guy would freak out his team by running around to by time. It was unheard of...
    Fran Tarkenton should be mentioned whenever commentators speak of getting flushed out.

    Once upon a time that was taboo, until Fran Tarkenton: Underrated and under appreciated.

    Last? Tito Jackson. Sure he was the chubby Jackson, he didn't have the single hits like his brother Jermaine Jackson who went solo, didn't have the biggest afro like Marlon. Wasn't tall like Jackie. Wasn't the cute young kid Randy,but Tito could play guitar his ass off...AND while dancing.
    All we hear is Michael, Janet & Jermaine...but Tito was the most underrated and under appreciated Jackson

    I think I am underrated and unappreciated at work. I am super talented and always see the positive in life but my boss could not care less.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
