LMITOUT Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 That National Anthem was worse!!!!Were they booing her?? If not, they should have been! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wadinator Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 She was bad. Very bad. I wondered who the crowd was booing when she finished, her or the Eagles. You shouldn't have to wonder about something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wade Joseph Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Listening to the totally unbiased and unopinionated grandiose radio hosts of the vikings radio network. Those guys are GREAT! NOT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTro Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 I'll take either one of them over Dan Dierdorf any day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandmannd Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 They are both horrible and I'll throw Dan Dierdorf in there as well. Nothing is worse than Madden at a Brett Favre game though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zamboni Posted September 16, 2008 Author Share Posted September 16, 2008 Tony Kornheiser has no business being in a broadcast booth. Same with whatever Gumbel brother does play by play- I can't remember which one it is, isn't there 10 of them??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Tony Kornheiser has no business being in a broadcast booth. He's horrible...On camera Mike Torico was cringing every time Tony went on one of his long boring rants last night. Last week Kornheiser had to talk about Favre every time Rodgers threw the ball, until Torico basically told him to shut up and let the kid play.

wannaeye Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Yeah, but he's got the best comb over in the league!!!If you look really close he's got like 3 strands of hair on the left side combed up over the top. I literally turned the volume off last night he's so sickening!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyepatrol Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Madden and Dierdorf aren't too bad IMO, but they're getting old and can't quite see the game right and keep up with it. I cannot stand Kornheiser one bit though! For whatever reason, ABC/ESPN seems to think you need 3 guys in the booth to have good commentary. Dennis Miller, Tony Kornheiser....these "regular Joe" commentators just don't work and 2 commentators are sufficient. One host commentator and one analyst/expert/former player.And as for former player commentators....I absolutely loath Boomer Esiason!!!!!! Of all the NFL commentators there are (Kornheiser included), Esiason is the one I can't stand the most! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookiee Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 That whole MNF crew shouldn't be there. Tirico, Jaws, and Kornheiser. There has got to be better somewhere in ESPN that deserve a shot. I didn't mind the old SNF crew Theisemann got a little old for being as pompous as he was but it was no where near as bad as this debacle. Dierdorf doesn't belong in a booth either.

eyepatrol Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 I thought Theismann was okay too.I'd like to see how Strahan does. He always seems funny, yet knowlegable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B. Amish Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 I've always like Kornheiser on PTI. But, he get's annoying on MNF. The announcer that comes to mind as my favorite is probably Troy Aikman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyepatrol Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Agreed....PTI....I like him on there, but that's where he should stay.Aikman is excellent! As is Johnston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookiee Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Aikman took too many shots to his head. An especially nice one was a shot from Jerry Ball on MNF against the Vikes. There really isn't much for decent announcers and PTI stinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lawdog Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Kornheiser is THE ABSOLUTE WORST on TV! I thought the Mike Patrick, Theisman and McGuire Sunday night crew was MUCH beter than this suckfest. MNF hasn't had much of anything good in a broadcast since Melissa Stark left!!!!! I don't mind Madden though (except when he's doing a Favre love fest I agree).Aikman is pretty good except I don't like him on the Cowboy games and that Joe Buck he's with is only one half step above Kornheiser. Can't stand Dierdorf, never could. Totally agree the Vikings radio guys are AWFUL too, if I hear that dork say "the AFOREmentioned (insert player name here)" one more time I think I might crawl through my car radio to ring his neck!!!

Outfitter17 Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Kornheiser, should just stay on PTI (I think he is great there).Theisman was the worst, I couldn't stand watching a game where he was one of the commentators.I love madden, I can't wait for each sunday to roll around.

ZapBranigan Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Yeah they are bad. but when the thanksgiving game gets boring Madden starts off on his three legged turky bit with the yellow marker. I find it hilarious. I wonder if he does that even when the game remains exciting. I don't think I can remember a thanksgiving game that didn't get boooorrringgg. Maybe it's the chemicals in the turkey? Anyway I still think it's funny stuff. And no I do NOT miss the coaches clicker. That back and forth running of the clips and marking up the sceeen till you couldn't see anything anyway was annoying. And you missed a few plays while he did that mess. Also after a few lines he no longer made any sense. Great coach but lousy color guy. He did take a rag tag team and pummle the Vike in their last attempt at a Superbowl. Ouch.

zamboni Posted September 16, 2008 Author Share Posted September 16, 2008 You guys love Madden?? If I have to hear him explain stuff about football I knew when I was 3 years old again, I will scream.

mechanictim Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 I think a couple of those guys on the Vikings radio network are trying to do Jesse Ventura imitations. Maybe MNF should get Jesse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
