The footage is still incredible, in spite of the dingbat hosts.
Exactly. Inside the NFL's highlights were usually pretty awesome and some of their stories of interest were....well, interesting. Besides, I don't care too much if the talking heads/coverage is sub-par, it's still a show about the NFL.

It might not be the end after all, only on HBO. The show could resurface on another network, my guess, the NFL network.
ESPN - After 31 years, 'Inside the NFL' ceases production on HBO - NFL (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3234237)

That show was horrible. Cris carter hated the 'Skins, and some weeks they didn't even show the 'Skins highlights. Go make more Flight of the Conchords episodes and leave football to ESPN.

a little off topic here but seems to me that ESPN is full of Skins haters too. Ever notice how the Cowboys are always called "america's team" by the anouncers and EVERY year they are picked as contenders for the super bowl. IDK, maybe its in my imagination

Good riddance. They hated the Redskins and like people already said the show was a shell of it's former self.

Len Dawson and Nick Buonicotti (sp? I should look it up but...) were awesome. Jerry Glanville was at least fun. Today's cast is worse than the CBS pregame show (Mr. Ed's lookalike Shannon Mumblesalot could ruin a bachelor party with Penthouse Pets). They don't offer any insight and their analysis is sophomoric. The only time I watch an episode anymore is when someone on here posts about an especially intelligent comment by CC.
On a similar note, how can Chris Carter and Greg Gumbel have broadcasting careers, yet no network is begging for me?
LOL! Good call rypper, that was the funniest thing I have read all day.

FYI. Inside the NFL will be on Showtime beginning this season. First episode is Wednesday Sept. 10 at 10pm and air every Wednesday until the Super Bowl. Costas and Collinsworth are not expected to return however

yeah I hate the gumbels ("Gumbel to Gumbel" is a favorite line of my friends and I). I put the game on mute if they are broadcasting

Good riddance Chris Carter. IMO he ruined the show all by himself. It used to be a good show but recently has turned into the Lets See What CC says next show.
While Dan Marino is ok, I just can't take large doses of him.
Costas and Collinsworth are good imo.
He sure as hell did, then he would bitch about Art Monk!
