If Star Wars characters were football commentators....

I found myself shouting out a bunch of Star Wars quotes while watching some of the NFL playoff games this weekend, so I thought it would be funny to do a parody with Star Wars characters as football commentators. Here's examples of things they might say during a game....

Commentary team #1: Palpatine (play-by-play) and C3PO (analyst) (doing a radio broadcast for their "home team")

Palpatine
The quarterback steps back, throws. COMPLETE!!!!

C3PO
They're running out of time. The chances of them scoring twice in two minutes is 325 to 1.

Palpatine
Oh relax, my little gold friend. It's first and ten on the 30 yard line and-

C3PO
I have a bad feeling about this

Palpatine
I know you do. I can feel your anger.


Commentary team #2. Vader (analyst) and General Motti (play-by-play)

Motti
The quarterback throws, he's got it at the ten, the five, touchdown!!

Vader
Impressive. Most impressive.

Motti
Indeed Lord Vader. There's still no way they've got a chance to go all the way though...

Vader
I find your lack of faith disturbing.


Commentary team #3 Jar Jar Binks (play by play) and Yoda (analyst)

Jar Jar
Mesa tinks dat da team needs to trysa harda.

Yoda
Try not. Do or do not, there is no try.

Jar Jar
Whateva. Hesa comsa da field goasla unit. From 50 yads away. Mesa dont tinks dey have a chance to makesa such a longsa field goal.

Yoda
Always you think it can not be done.

Jar Jar
Kickingsa 40 yad field goalsa one ting. Dis isa totally diffwentsa.

Yoda
No. No different. Only different in your mind. You must unlearn what you have learned.

Jar Jar
Wassa? Mesa cantsa undastand wassa yousa sayinsa!

Yoda
Oh. My. Force.

Jar Jar
Anyway. Hesa comsa da kick. He snapsa da ball and... loootalaaaaayyy!!!! Hesa made it. Dey wonsa! Dey wonsa! I dontsa believe itsa!

Yoda
That. Is why you fail.
