    Pam Oliver?

    I know she's normally not that bad, but her pre-game update was bad. It seemed like she was just reading in monotone off a cue card or something. Maybe the Green Bay weather has her brain frozen.
    hehe i was thinking the same thing...i think joe thiesman needs to hit on her to keep her from getting fired when the year is over :lol:

    I'm not 100% sure, but I think it was Dierdorf who said one of the dumbest things I've ever heard an announcer say during a football game. A WR made a leaping catch in the end zone and the announcer said, "He was going to catch that ball come heck or high you know what." To this day, I wonder when "water" became a word so dirty that it had to be referred to as "you know what" on TV.

    I'm with you on the Herm Edwards thing. The whole "play to win the game" is getting old.

    Jaworski is out

    ......'Monday Night Football' switching to 2-man booth
    Associated Press – Wed, Feb 15, 2012....Email
    Share0Print......BRISTOL, Conn. (AP) — "Monday Night Football" is switching to a two-man booth.

    Analyst Ron Jaworski has signed a five-year contract extension to appear on other programming on ESPN and will no longer join play-by-play announcer Mike Tirico and color commentator Jon Gruden on Monday nights, the network said Wednesday.

    Jaworski, the former Philadelphia Eagles quarterback, will work various ESPN studio shows year-round, often focusing on his specialty of breaking down video.

    "With him doing one game each week, we don't necessarily believe we were getting the best Ron Jaworski had to offer to the network," executive vice president Norby Williamson said.

    Jaworski called "Monday Night Football" games the past five seasons. Gruden, the former Raiders and Buccaneers coach, joined MNF in 2009 and agreed to a five-year extension in October. This is the first time in 15 years ESPN has used a two-person lead team on its NFL game coverage.

    "There was nothing broken about 'Monday Night Football,'" Williamson said.

    He said network executives believed Tirico and Gruden worked well as a two-man booth and there was no need to add a third person.

    "I fully expect Mike Tirico and Jon Gruden to be together for the foreseeable future," Williamson said.

    Jim Nantz needs to stick to golf. I can't stand it when he calls anything other than golf. I turn the volume off. And Simms can shut up too.
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    yeah, I like what Costas says, but he has such a weird cadence, I lose track of what he is saying. It's like he is trying to talk to preschool kids.
