Joe Theismann is one of my least favorite commentators of all time and just sounds ignorant most of the time. Unfortunately, that fits the mold for a lot of the other commentators out there and at least Joe brought some Redskins homerism to the table to counteract the Emmitts and Irvins. Unfortunately, of all of the former Redskins who have now turned to commentary, I cannot think of a single one that I enjoy listening to. SmootSmack 10-01-2007, 03:50 PM Does anyone have any idea why? I loved Joe as a QB and as a commentator. He had been with ESPN since 88...why let him go now with no comment as to why? What the hell happened? I know...but I can't tell you :) Redskin 10-01-2007, 03:58 PM I know...but I can't tell you :) Any1 know where smootsmack lives? Stacks42 10-01-2007, 04:04 PM Don’t freak out on me for saying this, but I think Aikman is one of the best commentators out there. I always thought Joey T was a pompous ass! hooskins 10-01-2007, 04:08 PM I'm actually happy about this.

I think both Aikman and Simms are great jsarno 10-01-2007, 04:27 PM I know...but I can't tell you :) PM me if need be, but this is killing me that I can't find out why they got rid of him. I am a long time Joey T fan. firstdown 10-01-2007, 04:34 PM I'll have to say when he first came out I did not like the fact that he would seat in the booth and say what play the skins were going to run. If I'm correct that lasted one or so games and he was not allowed to do any games of the skins for some time. I grew to like him as he did a good job of explaining the games through the eyes of the QB. I really don't pay much attention to any announcers and the only time I really got ticked was our game this years against the Eagles when they forgot tha they were announcing a football game. Redskins247 10-01-2007, 04:49 PM I'm sure when they signed Kornheiser on, they didn't want to Washington homer's in the booth...and you could kinda see Jaws soaring up the ladder on ESPN...and I actually like him in the booth. I grew up as a kid with Joe as my hero for the Skins and always liked having him do the Sunday night games...and now other than Al and John, the whole new Sunday night thing on NBC sucks!!!! SmootSmack 10-01-2007, 04:56 PM PM me if need be, but this is killing me that I can't find out why they got rid of him. I am a long time Joey T fan. Times change. People move on. Shizzle happens. It's nothing jaw dropping, really.
