Brees offered eight figure salary to do MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL ?

Bernie's insights were even better than Romo's,
No... not better. Maybe the same level, but not better.

Bernie only ever did like local preseason broadcasts. Just wondering if you have been able to catch his broadcasts there in Texas Hill Country.

during some down time.. i sometimes still go back just to listen to Pat Summerall & John Madden..choice of game, most times did not really matter...they were so great at working off one another's thoughts, instant reactions.. For the life of me, I have no clue how espn thought Booger McFarland or Jason Witten were better hires than hiring ...oh let's just say..Joe Thomas !!... If I could make a announcer trade? I would trade Troy Aikman for Tony Romo...Put Tony Romo with Joe Buck.. thoughts? as it stands
CBS-Jim Nance..Romo
Fox- Joe Buck..Aikman
NBC-Al Michaels..Collinsworth
ESPN-Joe Tessitore..Booger
NFL Network--Joe Buck..Aikman (but London games)
If a announcer trade was doable? who would you team up?
even trading Romo for Collinsworth may be a good change?

Yup... NFL Network's Preseason replays use the local broadcast audio. Years ago it was a half of one team's crew and the other of the other.
Now every game is replayed at least twice so it tends to be one audio on one and one on the other. Now I record a couple of the replays hoping to snag at least one by our guys.
Both Romo and Bernie call the D out and where the QB should look first... etc.
I think Bernie might have had a shot at a color gig, if he hadn't gone overboard that one game dumping in a QB for being garbage... I forget who the hell it was... and it may have been true, but it was mean-spirited. I was embarassed for BK.

Tessitore and Booger flat out suck... Joe and Troy aren't as bad, but I don't care for them much.
The rest are all good in my book, but I probably give Michaels the play-by-play edge over Nance, and Romo the color edge plus a little over Chris.
For my money Nance is still the most versatile announcer in sport.

The only thing that rubs me wrong about Jim Nantz is he's such a shill for Bill and the Pats...

Good post !. And it lets you compare and contrast the various #1 broadcast teams in the NFL game.
Also a lot is personal preference on who you you like or dislike.
AND there are a lot of other broadcast teams both professional and college........but are any worth $xx,xxx,xxx per year? Apparently the networks think so.
AND does ESPN have a shot at landing Brees at $20,000,000 (+/-) per year, stay tuned........

Meh, he was just honest....and accurate. But sure, you sometimes can't speak the brutal truth in those jobs. You must be "sensitive".

Chris Collingsworth sometimes get shit from football fans, but I think he does a really good job. Knows his shit, yet comes off not taking it too seriously. Has fun.
Also, he's absolutely despised by Steelers fans.
He must be doing something right.

Collingsworth works hard at game preparation for his show plus keeping up with Al Michaels must be challenging.
I didn't like him as a Bengal because he could beat you as a WR.
I'm sure Steeler fans agree.

He played the Steelers when their thuggery was at its height. And I think he observes that they have not changed a lot.

Mention something and you are "being honest"... harp on it repeatedly and you've being mean-spirited.

I saw the broadcast, and I don't think he harped on it. I know he had something snarky to say about Kellen Clemens...about not being able to watch him. And I think he had some criticism for Jeff Fisher and his offense. But, then, apparently Rams management must come to agree with Kosar because they fired Fisher like at the end of that season
