i like joey t. in the booth, i think he does a great job. i absolutely hate macguire(sp) all he ever says is " hey folks look at his hands. will you just look at his hands? those are some great hands." i'm sick of hearing about players hands.:vomit:

I love Joey T. He and Michaels will be great together. I hope Al stays on MNF.

And i dislike Joe. I think he's a dumb, self-hyped, idiot. I would rather sonny and sam. And i don't like them very much either. But atleast they are not self important.

You didn't honestly say Sam Huff for MNF did you? He may be the worst announcer in radio. He needs to hang it up. He was o.k. 5 - 10 years ago.

When you are listening to a game on the radio and you can not only tell that the announcer is referencing the wrong player but you know who the right player is, it is time for them to go...

Paul Maguire is horrible. I would rather listen to Siragusa or Baldinger.

TK would be good, miller was awful... he was there to be funny and he tried to be the football analyst instead... that and he was too busy proving his intelligence to be funny anyways.

I dont like JT, he talks too much (endless references to how great the current city is) its like he's afraid silence will make his head explode.

I miss the days of listening to Jack Buck and Hank Stram do MNF on the radio. They were the best in my opinion.

Jack Buck was in a class by himself on the wireless. On TV I always liked Tom Brookshirer. He and Sumerall were great fun together.

I think Theismann does a teriffic job, though that booth was weighted down terribly by Maguire. It is a tribute to Theismann's post leg-snap maturity that he tolerated Paul all those years. I would like to see Al Micheals stay but I think Tirico would be adequate. I don't hate Tirico. The danger with bringing in TK and saying "he's the comic relief", is that now Kornheiser has to sit there and try to work in his lines. And then the other two have to pretend to laugh. I thought they would have learned their lesson with Dennis. I think it would be better to put Tony Realli in the booth and have him correct Tirico's mistakes as "Stat Boy". " Actually Mike, it's Mark Brunell, not Scott Brunell..."

IMO, the only time that three man booth succeeded was with Howard Cosell. Even then, half the country would disagree. I think MNF should go with a two-man booth and emphasize the game over personalities. And PLEASE for God's sake. Let go of the Hank Jr. thing. They had the best, most recognizable theme in sports and they've made us listen to that awful country song for fifteen years now. Enough is enough. Make it about the game!

mike patrick and joey t together are a good crew.a 2 man booth is the way to go,no one tripping over each others words.as far as michaels and madden,in a class by themselves

If Michaels not let out I would like Pat Summerall, if he would be interested in doing Sunday night with Madden.

summerall was great but the last thing they need in the booth is a guy who I think is 80 something, who during the last couple of years he was working on MNF, accidentally cussed a few times, got the players names wrong quite a few times, and just seemed to be repeating what Madden was saying.
with all of this talk of Mike Torrico, can someone help me out: Where have I heard that name?

[dmek25]

he was on espn for a while and i think he does th espn nba pre game

Didn't Tirico and Herbstreit do some bowl games this year?

Tirico is solid.
