NFL broadcast thread (née ABC to kill MNF?)

[Zanshin]

For whatever it's worth, the MNF crew is way better this year. Gruden, like him or not, really adds quite a bit and is pretty insightful.

[Munson]

Yeah, he and Jaws called the first Brady TD pass to Watson before it happened.

[Seabiscuit36]

Mike and Mike suck.  Greenie is just horrible

really?....i dont find him awful but not insightful either....altho some of that may have to do with him sounding incredibly uncomfortable which should lessen as he moves forward...right now hes neither good or bad to me....just super boring...golic is much better for example


and yes greenie was an abomination last night....i actually felt bad for him

[Zanshin]

I didn't watch the second game, so I can't speak to Mike and Mike...but the usual MNF crew is a huge upgrade over last year.

[Seabiscuit36]

Golic knows what he was talking about Greenie just sounded like a guy who is a radio guy and has no clue about anything going on.  Golic called him out a few times for having the wrong viewpoint. 

[Munson]

It's not that they're exceptionally terrible or anything...but they basically do the game like it's their radio show. Which doesn't really translate well to calling a live game.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Greenberg was horrible. He was basically monotone all game long.

how hard is it to use an actual announcer and not a radio host. really. espn has like 3000 of them.

that's basically it right there.  mike and mike are great on the radio, bad in the booth.

mike and mike are the biggest thing espn has going for them.  their radio audience is enourmous and espn is riding that cash cow as far as it will go.

[MDS]

i highly doubt people are watching a game because of the announcers.

[ice grillin you]

people listen to mike and mike because espn resources give them great guests and analysts not because they are good radio hosts....in fact greenie might be the single worst sports radio guy to ever have a national show...hes so bad

the only good thing hes ever done is hosts sportscenter wher hes surpisignly decent

[ice grillin you]

before she moved to bristol i was in a restaurant bar waiting for a table one night at a spot in columbia md and had a short conversation with her and her husband

she has one of the worst non white women bodies ive ever seen but theres something about her....might be that i worship women news/sports broadcasters

a five is like a 7/8 when it comes to them
