I like Gruden. He is a bit technical but I prefer that over the typical stuff you hear that a 5 yr old could point out. I thought Sean McDonough was terrible. I thought his voice was monotone. He just showed no emotion was so ever. I think Gruden needs someone a little more colorful for some balance.
 
Agree. Love Gruden, but that other dude sucks.
Get Kevin Harlan, I'm a fan of his after that call he did when the fan ran onto the field during the San Fran LA game. If you haven't heard it, look it up. ******* hilarious!
 
I like McDonough, though I get the baseball comment.

Ian Eagle and Kevin Harlan are two of my favorites. CBS needs to have these guys as their top two teams.
 
I was really laughing at the announcers of 49ers and Rams. The Rams problem is they haven't had a real home in 10 months. No the Rams problem is Kase Keenum. ****** joke.
 
I thought the announcers were idiots, their commentary sounds like it is geared for folks with the IQ of a congressman

Great anology but even at this, the announcers were better than Phil.



Salute the nation
 
I'm just glad we had those two instead of listening to Chris ******* Berman all night.

Gruden's brother is the Redskins coach. He's an emotional guy and the @ss whipping I think threw him off his usual enthusiasm. I like Gruden.

I use to synchronize XM radio and the TV on mute. WAY freaking better!!!!!! I'd pause the TV about 3-5seconds and WhoaLA

This ^^^

I cannot stand Berman. His blowhard schtick is old, tired, and irritating.

I think their commentary is geared to the average fan-especially on Mon. night. Probably not a lot of people would understand Gruden if he really got technical..Sure wouldn't want him grilling me like he does college QB's on his pre draft shows-would probably shatter my illusions of my football knowledge.
 
I love Gruden too.

But generally, me and my friends won't pay attention to the commentor, because we comment the game throughout!! We are the better annoucer :D
 
I like John Gruden but sometimes he keeps hammering things over and over. However he has the creds.

For play by play, where is the heir to Keith Jackson?
 
I miss old school announcers like Chris Schenkel who didn't think a few seconds without an announcer talking about something was a bad thing.
 
MYRON COPE..............ring a bell????



Salute the nation
 
Don't forget Jack Flemming to go along with Myron, another good one from Monday night was Don Merideth
 
Howard Cossell, seeing some how we talking Monday night................




Salute the nation
