Danger Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Just now, m haynes said: Hard to break habits. Don't forget Bogger was color in the booth. He probably still talking about the last play. I hate guys that keep talking and never stop. But Booger said the dumbest crap around. Everyone would just say "Booger, WTF are you talking about?"

That's the key. 15 minutes for a 1st down, still talking while the next play have started. Edited May 10, 2020 by m haynes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m haynes Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 No one is perfect I get that. What I want is someone like Tony Romo. He points out what to look for and what the other is doing or not doing. The KC and Rams playoff game were a thing of beauty. Especially the 4th Q. He's calling the play before its happens. PS Romo sometimes talks too much. Like I said no ones perfect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PossibleCabbage Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Beth Mowins on play-by-play and Louis Riddick on color commentary would be my pick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duluther Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 3 hours ago, Danger said: He's a very good analyst IMO. Very well articulated. I disagree with the analyst part. This is the same guy who said Tua’s wonderlic score is going to affect him, and called him lazy for it. The same guy who, hours after saying this, responded in the wake of backlash, “after looking further at his tape, I realize he plays on instinct and won’t need a high score.” That’s a really dumb excuse.

y*so*blu Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Great news. I hope they bring in somebody with enthusiasm who can inject some life back into MNF. Gus Johnson comes to mind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You had the Sunday lineup - then MNF and that was it. MNF was an event. A big bar / sports bar event. Now - you've got the Sunday lineup, Sunday night, Monday night, Thursday night..........it's no longer unique So - since the product's been spread around / diluted - the individual productions matter more and personally (?) I think ESPN was right to get rid of these two. IMO Tessitore would try to make a kickoff falling off its T as some sort of dramatic event and McFarland was.....well lets be charitable and say worthless . Personal opinion completely.

PossibleCabbage Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 The problem with Monday Night football is that the aesthetic quality of an average football game is not terribly high and that it's more difficult to predict months in advance which teams/games will be compelling than it was in the 70s and 80s. On Sundays if a game isn't fun to watch, there's probably another game on another channel, or in extreme cases the network itself will flip away (plus there's RedZone.) In primetime though there's no hiding if a game is a dud. We just focus on "man, MNF is terrible" because it had a previous history of being appointment viewing, not that SNF and TNF aren't sometimes and usually (respectively) just as terrible.

TheBeast23 Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Thank god. Booger made it literally unwatchable. Half the time I wouldn’t even notice the game and just be listening to how stupid his takes are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
