Bryant Gumbel and football games.

Collinsworth knows a ton about football though. He's a lot more knowledgeable than most color guys. I didn't watch much of the game because the Hurricanes were playing at the same time but it seemed like it wasn't the best commentator.


I like Kornheiser because he calls it like he sees it. That's why I think he and Theisman don't have great chemistry. Theisman has made a career out of saying announcer platitudes like "He's giving 110%" and "This guy came to play" and Kornheiser has made a career out of calling the truth.

I can't stand when ESPN2 has a female commentator on college football games.

I end up having to mute the shit, it's just not right.

Agreed, it just grates the nerves for whatever reason.

The female voice is only redeemed by the female body, so any type of female radio DJ is inherrently bad.

Tony Kornheiser on MNF isn't up to his PTI form, but he's still leaps and bounds better than pretty much any other football announcer. I think the announcing team for MNF is actually pretty good: Theismann can give a player's perspective, Kornheiser can be funny, and Tirico is an adequate play by play guy. Plus, you can't beat Suzy Kolber.

Joe Buck is awful, no question.

I cant stand Gumbel.

I like Madden but I'm old school. I remember when it was Madden on the sidelines coaching and it was dandy Don and Cosell in the booth.

I didn't get to watch it because CABLE PROVIDERS ARE COCKSUCKERS.

[Latrinsorm]

From what I hear NFLN was asking for some pretty exorbitant fees from the cable guys. Apparently they wanted to defray the costs of running 12,000 commercials every day for the past two weeks.
