NFL Drops Joey T & Millen

I'm a John Theisman and Ryan Millen fan myself. I just like what both of them bring to the table especially Miller. He played in the league and was a general manager for the Red Wings so he's seen both sides.

I see what you did there! lol

I told y'all that the NFLN didn't like the Redskins. For God sake be careful Charley.. You could be next.

When Millen was working behind the booth before taking the GM job at Detroit, he was touted to be the next John Madden. I'm a Joey T. fan, will always be.

I love the pic!!!! Look how all the other guys have stop watches snd are really focused on the combine while our guy Hasslettusdown is sitting there like a knot on a log. Good gurdy i hope he makes me eat my words but i have no confidence in Hasslett at all, even if we had the personell for the 3-4.

BTW sorry Joey T!! Im probably your only fan.

Sweet relief: Millen, Theismann replaced on Thursday nights - Shutdown Corner - NFL*Blog - Yahoo! Sports (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/blog/shutdown_corner/post/Sweet-relief-Millen-Theismann-replaced-on-Thur?urn=nfl-wp1872)

Joey T and Millen gone but I'll bet your darn patoey that Aikmen will still be announcing Skins games instead of having him announce Dallas games.

I don't give a crap about who is the top announcer and whether his feelings are hurt because he didn't get to announce the top game, how about hiring an announcer who is either from the area or used to play for the team.

Let Aikmen announce all the Dallas games cause I'm sure to him those games are #1 to him. Now if it's Dallas vs Redskins then there is no harm in having Aikmen if the team is playing in Dallas, but have a Skins announcer for the home game against Dallas. Or.... put Aikmen and Joey T together which would be fair.

I wont lie, up until last year I though Aikman was always (relatively) un-biased. He was one of the top color guys in my book. I don't know what happened last year but he had a major case of homerism.

As for Joey and Millen, it's about time. I'm glad Mayock is getting his shot and something about Bob Papa's voice made wanna sleep during every game so I'm happy he's out as well. Would have loved if Gus Johnson would have been paired up with Mayock because he could make leaves falling an exciting event.

Brad Nessler, Mike Mayock has the chance to be one of the best duos in sports broadcasting IMO.

[QUOTE=CrazyCanuck;801640]I'm a Joey T fan myself... and yes as an announcer.

Me too

LOVE Joe...hope he lands on his feet in another NFL related endeavor!

In your scheme, every network would need 32 color analysts under contract to assure that every team has "one of their own" in the booth every Sunday.

Let's just say that is not going to happen any time soon.

For a long time on MNF, rivals of the Redskins had to listen to Joe Thiesman call the games. Now you as a Redskin fan will have to listen to Troy Aikman call games - - unless the Skins are so bad that they are never in a game that is worthy of the #1 announcing team. The other alternative is for some former Redskin to demonstrate that he is better than Troy Aikman at color commentary so he can replace Troy on the #1 announcing team.

Look on the bright side. Better Troy Aikman than Emmitt Smith.

Having Aikman on a Skins game is a good thing folks, it means it's a national game. If you have Brian Billick doing your game, not a good sign.
