I'm pretty sure the only reason ESPN went with Ditka was because his first name is Mike.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

And Mike Rowe is pretty tied up with his schedule.

They need to hire the Round Mound of Rebound as a full time talker.

Why, so he can say "that's just the way it is" about the Philadelphia fans for the 492nd time?

As annoying as that was, it was much more educational and entertaining that the rest of the announcers combined.

Understandably, you've set the bar very low.

I don't mind the announcers at all. The only problem is TK tends to get away from the game too much. Jaws is a damn good in-game analyst, and the black dude aint a bad play by play guy. TK just has to try and keep is obscene remarks related to the game somehow. Say someone's running like a monkey or something.

perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds

thats also why tony goes silent for long periods of time...he really does not have much to add. not that i mind him cause he is occasionally funny but what makes him work great is his chemistry with wilbon.

holy shtein...Jimmy Kimmel just had the line of the century

Mike Tirico was welcoming people tuning in from watching the Cleveland/Boston playoff game and Kimmel says, "I'd also like to welcome Joe Theisman, watching from his living room with steam coming out of his ears."

the booth was silent until Tirico started to make the next play call, it was farging brilliant.

he should have blasted emmitt for being a idiot who can not string together a full sentence without bumbling and stumbling.

Don't knock Emmitt.  He says that Travis Henry will be the breakout rookie this year.

Kimmel was banned for the crime of saying something interesting and actually humorous on Monday Night Football. Your normally scheduled boring, vapid content will resume on Monday night.

typical ESPN,  ban the most interesting 15 minutes they've had in 10 years
